Amsterdam Classic Saloon Boat Cruise with Drinks and Cheese

1.Amsterdam Classic Saloon Boat Cruise with Drinks and Cheese

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 31,825 reviews · from $21Our pick

Review of Amsterdam’s covered saloon boat cruise, with canal landmarks, Dutch Gouda cheese, unlimited drinks, guide commentary, and practical tips.

“Smooth ride but all of the seating is facing inwards meaning you have to twist yourself around to view everything. Also half of the boat had plastic covering windows which you cannot see through. I have done Amsterdam canal cruises before with all-glass windows and a panoramic roof with seats all facing forwards which is much more preferable.”

Review of Amsterdam’s cozy cheese and wine cruise, with canal views, unlimited drinks, practical tips, value, seating, and who should book.

“The Cheese and Wine Canal Cruise was a great experience! Our guide was equally hilarious and informative. We took this tour towards the end of our trip and I’m so glad we did! There are so many sights we missed while walking and biking. Seeing the historic buildings from the canals and learning about each canal house from our guide was a great way to end our wonderful time in Amsterdam! Also, the wine and cheese were spectacular! The service was fantastic. 10/10 recommend!”
