The guide was funny and knowledgeable. I didn’t choose the wine and cheese option even tho it looked delicious. The boat was comfortable and warm. You will not get better views of the city and canals for $20. Always take the boat ride, relax and enjoy and hour on the water.

Very informative, I've been to the Netherlands 6 times, this was my first trip to Amsterdam where I had the opportunity to explore and learn about the city. The guides were super helpful and informative. The right balance of enjoying the views and learning!
