Best Canal tours in the city. Friendly people. Always kn walking distance.

One of the "must"s in Amsterdam, but expensive.

The line here is just way too long for only two cashiers. Staff is not well prepared for the questions and take too long to check simple demands. We were looking for a boat bike for 4 people and a baby. Unfortunately they consider the baby as a person and demanded us to rent two boats (and took more time than it should to check any other possibility) - so not a chance. We then decided (and I regret) to go on the tour. Too expensive for its purpose and not very well accommodated when inside the boat. At least I left it having learned something about the city. Go rent a bike instead, probably more fun than this.

The hop-on hop-off feature is very convenient. You can start your cruise from a wider selection of locations than would otherwise be available.
The tour guide kept making poor taste jokes. He even commented about our crying baby on the P&A system, which was embarrassing. The boat atmosphere overall was bad, which is kind of an achievement considering everyone should have been in a holiday mood. His explanations of the sights were interesting at times.
When buying a ticket there is an attempt to up-sell you to an extended ticket which costs more, which is quite compelling and you will probably end up paying 25€ for the cruise. I saw companies some in the center which claimed to do cruises for 9€, so you might want to compare.
Their website promotes an app to use on the boat, but it ended up being useless and would not recommend installing it.

The boat tour was very nice, but the ticket service was very confusing. We bought our tickets online and were not warned that they need to be printed. Not the PDF with a barcode, nor the website mentioned anything about it. So when we arrived to the pier, we were sent to a print shop across the street to print a voucher with which our actual tickets could be issues. Seriously? In 2016? So what the digital tickets for?
