      Calm, comfortable and unique perspective of Amsterdam.
      Lovely-sized boat, charming Captain Bas and crew Clayton provided great local insight into this beautiful water-dependent city.

      Good overall experience
      Nice experience and commentary Small boat which allows to have a more intimate and personalised experience No water though on this one (out of order) which was a bit annoying to wash your hands etc…

      Great Introduction to Amsterdam
      Thoroughly enjoyed the 2 hour cruise, we did this as soon as we arrived and was a great introduction to the city. The driver of the boat was very good and Fintan was very knowledge of the city and made the whole trip very entertaining. The on board snacks were very tasty and there was no limit to your drinks. Would highly recommended it.

      This is THE Canal Cruise to book
      This is a really wonderful way to see Amsterdam. The small group is perfect as we were able to really relax and ask any questions about the City. The boat driver and main tour guide struck the perfect balance of giving information in an amusing manner. And the hostess kept us very well supplied in wine/soft drinks and cheese. On a previous trip I had taken a canal cruise on a larger boat with an audio commentary via headphones. This trip was SO much better than that and worth the extra money....All in all a perfect way to start our time in Amsterdam.

      Take this canal ride!
      Very attentive crew, Sebastian and the other young man (sorry I forgot his name!) told us about Amsterdam history as we passed thru lit up bridges and passed beautiful buildings bright with night lights! Snacks were great! The boat was very comfortable and warm. We enjoyed this activity very much.

      Good sightseeing if weather is favorable.
      Fun trip in open canal boat. The two young guys running the boat needed to spend a little less time trying to impress us with their sense of humor and more on narrative

      The tour was great! Boat was very comfortable and we were happy we booked this boat because it was a cloudy, windy, rainy day and we didn’t have to worry about the weather. The snacks were more than expected and the beverage selection was very nice. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and the captain was amazing at how he handled the boat with all the traffic. Highly recommend

      An Excellent Canal Tour!
      Great tour! We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour tour on one of the oldest and classiest canal tour boats in Amsterdam. Our host and the captain were great! Very friendly, engaging and fun. This was a very worthwhile experience. Most of the other tours are 1 hour...loved that they took their time, answered questions, and always seemed interested in making sure we had a great trip. Plus the snacks (cheese, crackers, etc.) were a nice addition. Drinks, including beer and wine, are available. Highly recommended?

      Tour the canal with Clayton and Yannick! The best guides in Amsterdam cruising!
      It was a beautiful boat, fantastic cruise but what made it extraordinary was our cruise guides Clayton and Yannick. They were extremely knowledgeable, polite, funny and made the experience a once in a lifetime experience. They connected with the guests ranging in age from 20 to 75 from countries all over the US and Europe. We laughed, we learned and the experience made us want to return to Amsterdam again and again

      Relaxing Canal Cruise
      Cruising on a beautifully restored 100 year boat with delightful Dutch treats was a perfect way to experience the canals and Amsterdam. Reneatta is a great informative guide with interesting stories.

    Wow what an experience, the boat is beautiful, has classic lines and design. The captain and guide could not have been more helpful, informative and friendly. We purchased the drinks included option and the wine flowed throughout the two hour trip. Highly recommend this boat and crew it will not disappoint

    The skipper, Joris, was very informative and clearly passionate about making sure everyone enjoyed the tour. Koch was serving drinks and also was an available for questions and when it started to rain, he quickly provided umbrellas to everyone while Joris parked the boat under a bridge to keep everyone as dry as possible.

    We did our tour at 8:15 PM, which was perfect because the city is so beautiful all lit up at night.

    We loved this tour and would recommend it to anyone!

    Lovely tour! Both our skipper and our host were incredibly nice. They knew their history and were very engaging and fun in the way they talked about the city. You could just tell how passionate they were and how much they wanted to share their stories and knowledge of Amsterdam. The boat was beautiful and very comfortable. Drinks were very nice, carefully selected and well priced. Would definitely do another tour with them and absolutely would recommend to anyone coming to Amsterdam to book a tour with Voyage.

    Great tour! Joris (the captain) and Koen (the tour guide) were extremely kind, funny and informative! I recommend taking the tour during the evening before it gets dark, so everything is clear and the air is cool.

    We prebooked tickets through Trip Advisor. We waited at the assigned pick up place which was very clearly indicated on the Trip Advisor tickets for over 30 minutes. Unlike other operators, this operator does not have a booth at the dock so you just need to wait till they show up. The other boats suggested waiting as boats sometimes arrive late. I had phone issues as I saw later that that they had they texted me a few minutes before. I ended up buying tickets from Ansterdam Canal cruises which does have live people and a booth adjacent their pick up point. We had a wonderful cruise! Voyage did agree to refund my money and offered me a free cruise for the aggravation and wasted time but we had already enjoyed a great cruise on the other line. MY ADVICE: Don't pre-book. Buy your tickets from an operator who has a booth and people there to answer your questions.

    This is a great way to see some of the city while saving the skin on your feet. It was a cozy boat, built by them, only allowing 18 people. There is a great lounge seating area at the front and benches down the side. Our skipper Bas and the Co-owner of the company Lady, apologies for not fermenting her name, were very professional and personable. They would answer any questions you had, even about the 🦜. It was a little cool for the 1545-1745 trip but they had plenty of blankets on hand. The snack plate was great with meats, cheeses, fruits and stroopwafel. We only partook in soft drinks but there were adult beverages available. The views were great and boat traffic wasn't bad except for those not knowing the customs and courtesies of boating in the canals.

    Beautiful boat, very nice and kind guides, great tour, funny and interesting stories, doesn’t feel like your average tourist canal cruise, the boat isn’t crowded. Just be aware that drinks aren’t included and thus you will pay for them at the end of the cruise, but the selection is nice (doesn’t taste cheap compared to most companies) and prices are reasonable (30€ for 6 drinks thus 5€/drink, we had wine and prosecco). We had afterwards an evening cruise with Flagship and while it was enjoyable for the views, it definitely wasn’t the same lovely experience and we would have loved to have an evening cruise with Voyage. We totally recommend the cruise with Voyage and would do it again for sure!

    My wife and I had a great experience on the one hour premium canal cruise. The Mana boat definitely stood out amongst the other boats, with its luxurious look and feel - it made the cruise that much more enjoyable. We did get a few spots of rain during the cruise however the boat was well prepared with blankets and umbrellas.

    Erin and Tamsin were professional and personable hosts and as first time visitors to Amsterdam, we left the cruise a lot more knowledgeable about the city. They took the time and attention to answer all the questions we had too.

    Highly recommended for those wanting to have a more personal and premium introduction to the city!

    Highly recommend this small group tour. Our 20-something tour guides were engaging, funny, and knowledgeable about the city’s rich history and their daily life growing up and living in Amsterdam. We saw folks cruise by on the boats with 20-plus people with eyes glazed over. Do this one instead. Do the package with drinks included. Tasty Prosecco!

    This was a really fun tour! It was our first time in Amsterdam for me and my husband and first time on a canal boat. The tour offered fun facts and anecdotes told by the skipper as we passed by different parts of the city. We had cold drinks and enjoyed the nice views from the canal. A really interesting and relaxing way to learn more about the city. Would definitely recommend it!
