A good value fun cruise.
This was a fun trip and a great way to end our stay in Amsterdam. Moses was a great host and set the mood nicely by giving out shots of dutch firewater at the very start. We were so fortunate that we had a lovely bunch of people on our tour. From early on it was obvious that we had come to enjoy the tour and the sights but also the free flowing wine! Moses gave us some interesting information along the way but this was more ad hoc and in answer to questions rather than a robotic presentation. The food was fine although I could have done with a wider variety of cheeses. The wine and beer were perfectly good and there was a good selection of non alcoholic drinks although no hot drinks. That may be different in the colder months. All in all we had a great 2 and 1/2 hours and considering the food and drink ( and in comparison to the prices of large group cruises) it was good value. Thanks Moses.
This was a terrific Tour! "Captain Eric" was a very knowledgeable guide and fun to be around. The snacks, wine, and beer were an excellent addition. He made us feel right at home from the very beginning. I highly recommend this tour! You will not be disappointed.
Moses was funny and kind. Loved the small setting of the tour. Fresh bitter-balls were unexpected and a yummy treat! Recommend 100 percent
Excellent look at Amsterdam - knowledgeable and entertaining captain. Lovely couple of hours. ——————————————————————————————————————————————-
I have been on several canal boat tours with different companies and this is hands down my favorite! The food and drink offerings are excellent. The boat is on the smaller side so you get a cozy environment and can talk easily with everyone. The best part though is Captain Storm. He offers a funny and interesting view of Amsterdam with his personal stories and ability to answer any question you may have. We had our kids with us so he specifically took the route past the zoo so they could see the animals. They loved seeing the giraffes and elephants. This is truly the only boat tour you want to go with!
Stormy was an entertaining knowledgeable guide. Great way to see Amsterdam. I would Highly recommend. Small group, plenty of snacks and drinks.

Amazing experience.
"We rented a big boat for Gaypride and we had such a great experience! The boat was perfect, in a great spot, and... working with Eduke was great. He was SO nice and patient with us, and reliable. "
Very nice cruise
"This is the cruise you should take! Why choose one of those standard tour boats when you could choose this one!! Super relaxed. It was so much fun! I highly recommend this."
Beautiful cruise, beautiful boat, excellent service!
"A day out with family in Amsterdam - a beautiful city when you walk around but you only see the real beauty of it from the water!

Exploring Amsterdam: Date Ideas from Canal Cruises to Rooftop Dinners
All you need to know..
Amsterdam, the "Venice of the North," is a city brimming with charm. Canals snake through its heart, lined with gabled houses and bustling cafes. With its rich history, vibrant culture and romantic atmosphere, it's no wonder Amsterdam is a popular destination for couples.
Whether you're planning a weekend getaway or a longer stay, Amsterdam offers a plethora of date ideas to suit every taste. From classic outings like canal cruises to unique experiences, this guide will help you create a memorable itinerary for your special someone.
A Glimpse into Amsterdam's History
For a quintessential Amsterdam experience, a canal cruise is a must. Glide through the city's waterways, taking in the sights from a unique perspective. The canal cruise page on thingstodoinamsterdam highlights all cruises as a fantastic way to learn about the city's history and architecture. During the daytime, admire the picturesque canal houses and bridges. In the evening, enjoy the city illuminated against the twilight sky.
Once your cruise ends, explore the charming Jordaan neighborhood, known for its narrow streets, art galleries, and trendy shops. Perhaps indulge in some delicious "poffertjes" (Dutch mini pancakes) at a street vendor, sharing a sweet treat and conversation.
Art and Culture
Amsterdam is a haven for art lovers. Immerse yourselves in the masterpieces of Van Gogh and Rembrandt at the Rijksmuseum or delve into the world of modern art at the Stedelijk Museum. Explore smaller, independent galleries in the Jordaan or De Pijp neighborhoods, sparking discussions about your favorite pieces.
Beyond the Canvas
For a unique date experience, head to the Bloemenmarkt (Flower Market), a riot of colors and fragrant blooms. Wander hand-in-hand amidst the stalls, selecting a single flower to represent your affection. Afterward, take a stroll through the Vondelpark, a sprawling green space perfect for a picnic or a relaxing bike ride.
Culinary Delights
No date is complete without a delicious meal. Amsterdam's culinary scene caters to all palates. Savor fresh seafood at a harborside restaurant, indulge in traditional Dutch cuisine like "stamppot" (mashed potatoes with vegetables) at a cozy "eetcafe," or embark on a food tour to sample the city's diverse offerings.
For a touch of romance, consider a rooftop dinner. The city boasts several restaurants with stunning views, allowing you to enjoy a delectable meal while gazing at the Amsterdam skyline. Imagine twinkling lights and panoramic vistas as you share conversation and laughter.
Experiences for the Thrill Seekers
If you and your date are looking for something more adventurous, Amsterdam has options too. Challenge yourselves with a thrilling escape room experience, working together to solve puzzles and escape within a time limit. Alternatively, unleash your inner child with a go-kart race, testing your driving skills and having a blast in the process.
Evening Entertainment: Shows, Bars and Nightlife
As the sun sets, Amsterdam's nightlife comes alive. Catch a stand-up comedy show, a live music performance, or a classic film at a historic theater. For a more intimate setting, cozy up in a jazz bar, listening to smooth tunes and enjoying each other's company.
Beyond the City Limits
For a change of scenery, consider a day trip to the Dutch countryside. Rent bicycles and explore the picturesque villages and landscapes surrounding Amsterdam. Sample local cheeses at a farm, or visit the charming town of Zaanse Schans, known for its windmills.
Creating Lasting Memories in Amsterdam
Amsterdam offers endless possibilities for creating lasting memories with your date. Whether you choose a classic canal cruise, a stimulating museum visit, or a romantic rooftop dinner, prioritize spending quality time together. Be present in the moment, embrace new experiences and let Amsterdam's magic weave its spell on your love story.
