Review Amsterdam Canal Cruise Reviews

We did two canal cruises in Amsterdam this week. The first one was recommended by our hotel, and it was a classic tour that covered all the major sights. The second cruise was more of a private experience with a small group, and it felt much more personal. I’d love to hear from others who have done canal cruises in Amsterdam—what did you think? Was there a particular cruise you enjoyed the most or anything you wish you had known before going? Any tips for choosing the best cruise would be great, too!

I've done a couple of canal cruises in Amsterdam as well, and I found that the small group tours really do offer a unique perspective. They often share local stories that you won’t get on the larger, standard tours. One tip I have is to check if the cruise includes stops, as some allow you to hop off and explore certain areas. Did you find any specific sights or neighborhoods that stood out during your cruises?
