Passeios por Westerkerk

It was sunny, the views were beautiful, and the captain was good at his job and provided an informative tour.

We had a great time on the canal cruise! Our tour guide was excellent. He was super friendly and knowledgeable about Amsterdam. The boat was cozy, and the wine and cheese were delicious!

Rob was our guide, he was very nice. He talked about the history of Amsterdam and I learned a lot from him. They would ask you if you want some drinks, ask first if it's free because it wasn't. The tour was relaxing and you see some awesome sights around the canals. Highly recommended.

Our guide was really good and helpful! A must-have experience in Amsterdam, especially if you only have a limited amount of time to spend in the city. The brakes at the shop are hand brakes and not the Dutch style, so it's also easier to handle and more familiar.

Tickets and tour vouchers were obtained smoothly. Station staff directed us to platform B to wait for the guide to lead us onto the bus. Sitting on the upper deck of the double-decker bus provided a better view during the journey. The first stop was Afsluitdijk, where we had a brief 30-minute stay to learn about the Dutch dam engineering technology that balances the separation of sea and land. The second stop was Giethoorn. We first took a traditional boat tour for 1 hour, followed by a very generous 2.5 hours of free time. Strolling through the village with its small bridges, flowing water, and houses, the overall experience was very satisfying. I recommend this to travelers who don't want to go by themselves but wish to spend more time in Giethoorn.

Booked for 4:15 PM, but there was no boat at that time when we arrived. The merchant helped us arrange for 5:15 PM. The boat was beautiful, the guide was friendly and humorous, and there was unlimited red and white wine and drinks. The scenery along the way was beautiful, I loved it.

The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, and the meeting point was also convenient, about a 5-minute walk from the train station. I enjoyed the cheese factory visit very much. The visit to the windmill village was a bit rushed, though; I wish it had been about 30 minutes longer. Overall, a good experience :)

It took us a while to find the queuing area. We hadn't originally planned for food, but because it was Christmas, the staff kindly offered us complimentary cheese and drinks. We had a wonderful time, and the staff provided detailed information about the canal tour. 👍🏻
