Booking, pricing, scheduling on short notice and experience at the entrance were all so comfortable. We also had a good time at the attraction and details provided to us during booking about the attraction was accurate and relatable.

The Amsterdam Light Festival cruise was a very enjoyable and well-organized experience 🌉.🌃 I truly appreciated seeing the light installations from the water and learned many interesting facts about the artists and their creations. The atmosphere was relaxing, and the installations were even more impressive in person than in photos or videos.
Inside the boat, the guide commentary was played out loud and was clear, but since we were sitting outside, we had to use the phone audio guide. One small downside was that the information sometimes played before reaching the light installations, so it was easy to forget the details by the time we arrived 😄.
Inside the cabin, the windows were a bit foggy 🌫️, although they could be opened for photos and videos. We chose to sit outside at the back of the boat, which offered a great view, but it became quite cold by the end of the tour 🥶. Staying outside for the entire cruise may not be the best option unless you are well prepared. Overall, it was a high-quality experience that I truly appreciated and would recommend 👍🏻.

We were well looked after, but had to be escorted to another boarding point because of the fog. An excellent boat (the Tulp), whisper quiet, which is very pleasant because you can hear everything clearly. A big ten out of ten as far as I'm concerned, and definitely worth repeating.

The building looks amazing. Very easily accessible and the staff is very friendly and helpful. A lot of artwork to see an everything is divided into logical sections according to different periods and origins of art.

I was alone but I didn't feel lonely, thanks to the staff for taking my photo, as the cameras in the rooms couldn't capture me in every corner. A wonderful experience, I'll be back in the summer.

Our boat captain was soooo funny and made the ride super entertaining, the bar staff were just as nice and funny as well. All of the art displays were so modern yet had such a deep backstory behind them that allows you to enjoy how whimsical they are while also making you aware of the things they stand for. The boat tour also provides a completely different perspective of the town so that you can see it in its entirety; something you don't experience just by walking down the street.
