Highlights
  • The Jordaan - The most common theory on the origin of the name is as a derivation of the French word Jardin, meaning garden: most streets and canals in the Jordaan are named after trees and flowers. Another theory is that the Prinsengracht canal was once nicknamed Jordaan (the Dutch name for the river Jordan) and that the neighborhood beyond the canal came to be called this as well. Our Flagship canal tour will start and end here in the Jordaan.

Great trip rain protection and in addition, glasses of wine. - A great funny trip along with great historical and cultural information about Amsterdam. The boat was comfortable and protected from the rain which was a god send as it did rain! Would take the trip again! Be aware though, that the alcohol is an additional cost.

A bit disappointed - Pick up place was hard to define. On board entertainment was good but I expected more history of AMS.

Would have preferred clear roofed boat tour - Disappointing cruise as the weather was wet so we were on a boat with a canvas roof which meant you missed out on the features of the buildings on the other side of the boat. The crew were entertaining - jolly and funny.

Just meh - Just a meh experience. We booked the tour trying to see lights in the city. Tour started too early, so the lights were only on for the last 10 minutes. The hosts didn't have their stories/scripts down very well. We took a different cruise the following day that was 10x better for less money

Not happy - We never made the trip. The guy at the address that was given told us the night cruise took place from the other side of the building so we spent the next half hour running around trying to find the correct spot only to find out we were there originally and the guy told us wrong.

Make sure the boat has a roof - The picture shows the boat to have roof but it did not. The trip did not show all the main sites of Amsterdam. I have done better trips in the past.
