I’v visited Amsterdam many times and this is by far the best experience to say the least. SUP in the canals of AMS allowed me to see the city from a different angel, and the images I saw are very different. Getting the feet wet also helped me to get connected to the city in a different way. Special thanks to my tour guide Elaine who knows the city and the buildings very well. We had a wonderful time in the canals together. I would highly recommend this activity and the tour to others have have not experienced it yet. George
