The cruise was fantastic - the best way to explore the local area. Our guide Martien gave us alot of information about the area and really personalised the tour to us. Lunch was really nice. I would highly recommend the tour.

We had a lovely day on the river with a delightful lunch. It was wonderful to experience the villages outside Amsterdam in such a relaxing way. Highly recommend the experience.

Great day out. Martien shared is knowledge and love of this beautiful river. Stories and landmarks are a given. It was a lovely day away from the busyness of Amsterdam yet, we still felt like we were in the heart of the Netherlands. I will strongly recommend this tranquil yet inspiring guided cruise.
