Fabrique des Lumières tours

Great way to experience Amsterdam from their unique canals. Audio guides available on board, but found it more enjoyable to be at the back of the boat looking at the sights.

This is a small boat cruise, with a bar in the center selling drinks. The boat is decorated with some artificial flowers that look quite realistic. There are two crew members who provide commentary and a guided tour. The cruise lasts one hour. When purchasing tickets, please pay attention to whether you are choosing the option with unlimited drinks or without drinks. This is important to note beforehand.

good experience but it’s super pack and hot. not really enjoyable. I would prefer to pay more and have a proper seat. they have their own pier but they filled all single seats in the boat. I was squeezed and sweated. I then stood afterwards.

very blessed to have a nice sunny weather for the ride, as it was rainy a few hours ago. Our handsome skipper/guide(merijm) though inexperienced kept us entertained with interesting stories about some of buildings along the ride.

I really enjoyed this little day trip, we decided to do this when there were transport strikes as it made it easier to get around. the tour guide Evenline was lovely and friendly, we enjoyed exploring the area it was beautiful! it rained and was sunny but was enjoyable with both weather. it’s a nice way to immerse yourself into Dutch culture without going too far. the cheese was yum, there are cafes nearby for lunch. We chose the 11:30 time which worked well for us.

The tour was really informative and covers a wide area. It was really nice! It was interesting knowing about the Old Church bells that rang every 15 minutes, the protest that happened in the Jewish District and the memorial bricks on the streets! Really enjoyed it! I did the tour as I originally could not get tickets for the Anne Frank House! The guide was really friendly and nice! For the price, it was worth it! I ended up getting tickets to the Anne Frank house, I think the tour and the museum compliments well!

I had to reschedule this tour a day before the tour because I sprained my ankle, and the team was incredibly accommodating and understanding. They made the process easy and hassle-free, which I really appreciated. The tour was very well organized. The meeting point was easy to find, check-in was quick, and we left right on time. Everything ran smoothly throughout the day, making the experience stress-free from start to finish.

We had such a wonderful experience visiting a traditional cheese farm in Edam and exploring the beautiful village of Volendam. Everything felt so authentic—from learning about the cheese-making process to tasting some of the freshest and most delicious cheeses. 🧀 Volendam was absolutely charming, with its scenic views and cozy atmosphere. We also had one of the best lunches there—definitely a highlight of the trip! 😋 A special mention to our guide, Rob, who made the experience even more memorable. He was very eloquent, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about the places we visited. You can really feel his passion for sharing the history and culture. And the cherry on top? Seeing the famous windmills—it truly completed the whole Dutch experience! 🌬️✨ Overall, a perfect tour—highly recommended! 5/5 🫶🏼

A 10/10 experience, coming from a female solo traveller! It may be more exp than the rest but it’s worth every penny. there is only a small group of us (8 pax) and the guide (Reinier) will take care of you from the start to the end, from preparing water bottles, picking you up directly from the hotel, preparing powerbank, wifi and everything! he makes sure we go early enough to avoid the crowd and get good pictures (he knows the best spots for pics). As compared to a large bus tour, this is a curated tour for smaller groups to understand the history of the places, and this tour includes the additional Lego House in Zandaam and most importantly Giethoorn which is a MUST go cause it’s so charming. I cannot recommend this tour and the tour guide Reiner enough!
