“We absolutely loved this tour and will book it again should we return to Amsterdam in the future. Special shout out to Rick our tour guide who was very informative and put a smile on our faces from start to finish. Rene the bus driver was also brilliant. Overall 10/10!”

“The canal ride was not on this trip you had to rebook using the discount code. One of our codes didn't work and the poor lad who checked us in was getting frustrated with the technical difficulties of it all. Also it was just as well we had another day in Amsterdam because we wouldn't have had time.”
