My husband and I booked a private canal tour in Amsterdam. Our driver/guide was Salim, who was delightful and very knowledgeable. We were able to get into smaller canals, ask as many questions as we wanted, etcetera. I highly recommend this trip!

I've organised a birthday party for my wife and her 30 friends for a "Girls Night Out" party on the beautiful classic canal boat Monne De Miranda a few nights ago. What an evening it was for the ladies! I, the spouse was the birthday girl and along with my friends were having the best time. Everything was well organised to perfection. We requested Karaoke on board and everyone enjoyed in joining in. Rederij Aestelland never fails us as we have been using their services for this past 20 years and enjoyed every single occasion. The captains are always in immaculate uniforms, knowledgeable and courteous. The crew are professional. The chef on board outdid himself, truly a culinary delight from start to finish. The birthday cake was absolutely beautiful and tasty. This was a large boat with plenty of room to mix around. Seeing the Festive Lights was an added plus. We can not say enough about the professionalism of Rederij Aemstelland and can not wait to be on board again! Thank you for making my evening with my friends a night to remember.

If you are looking for a venue to celebrate your special day, there is no better option than Rederij Aemstelland!! We had the most amazing wedding we could think of, thanks to the team of Rederij! Erik, Felicia, Ingrid and Nikki made our special day AMAZING. Can’t thank enough 😊

We were lucky enough to have a private cruise with just the two of us as guests on the 96 year old Elizabeth craft today. Capt Erik really was super, informative and set a lovely pace for the two hour trip. The rose champagne wasn't half bad either and I cannot recommend enough. A real privilege to be on board

We had a wonderful experience and found this to be a highlight of our visit to Amsterdam. The boat was spectacularly restored and maintained. Our captain was very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas and was able to give us a great tour while navigating AND making sure our glasses were always full. We opted for cocktails and small bites on the boat prior to dinner. The captain picked us up within a block or two of our hotel and was able to drop us equally close to the restaurant we reserved for dinner. I can't recommend this highly enough. It was great.

The boat is very beautiful, it has more than 100 years old and looks new! Very charming! The children loved it! The captain was very gentil . The food and the drink was very good. In 5 days it was the best attraction we did in Amsterdam.

We are a construction company based in London and were visiting Amsterdam with our owners. We required something different to do in the evening that would be impressive to our owners and this was it! It was easy to find, the dinner layout was lovely and food was delicious. It was so much fun and the staff on board were amazing!

I booked this evening while still in the US. Felicia was very helpful and answered all my questions.14 of us met for a 5 star dinner (I'd give it 6 stars)while cruising the canals. Amsterdam by night was beautiful. Seeing the city from the water was fantastic. The 100 year old boat was an experience of elegance The staff accommodated us in everyway giving us a tour and plenty if Heineken. Their attention to detail was exceptional. The 2 1/2- 3 hour cruise exceeded expectations. Even the bill was precise.

We were 9 friends cruising for 2 hours on Elisabeth. We are all definitively recommending this boat. The crew and staff have been very friendly and accommodating. Thank you again for a delicious and memorable afternoon.

'The Viking' made the best platform for our company's summer party. With room for both group work, enjoying the sun and partying on the canals of Amsterdam. The crew where very friendly and the food very delicious. Thanks for a great trip!

I booked the Elisabeth for a one hour cruise for 6 people. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Our captain was very friendly and showed us points of interest during the cruise. The boat was beautiful and had a luxurious feel. Communication with the company was also flawless throughout. Many thanks

We had a wonderful experience booking a private dinner cruise on the Elisabeth. The service was great from start to finish. I was looking for a special venue to propose to my girlfriend during our trip and this romantic private dinner cruise was the perfect opportunity. It was an evening that we will never forget.

We had a great time on Jean Schmitz, for an entire evening. Private booking, delicious dinner for 9, cruise with pickup and return right at the foot of our hotel. We called Erik at 3pm, he had the whole thing organized by 3:30pm. Meanwhile, he and his team could not have been more accommodating, took into account one of us being intolerant to gluten and dairy, gave us fish/meat/veggie options, and served a delicious dinner while telling us about the places we were seeing and making it feel like the easiest thing in the world. Ah, I forgot. The boat we were on, Jean Schmitz, was pristine and very pretty, built in 1904, and kept in perfect shape. Don't "think" about it, this is the place.

This was a surprise boat tour for my husband's Birthday. The team were always easy to contact via email and booking was very smooth. The directions to where we picked up the boat were fantastic - we used their suggested location although it is possible to meet the boat at a place of your choice. You can choose whether or not you want a guided tour and we decided that we did. This was excellent and very well informed. About half way through the cruise we collected our lunch which was absolutely beautiful. We had chosen the Taste of Herengracht and it was perfect. We were really lucky with the weather in late September and enjoyed a sunny cruise around Amsterdam. A perfect way to see the city.

It ws a great Event to cruise through the town canal Amsterdam. Starting by daylight into the night, having an excellent dinner on the boat and of course a lot of fun. The Team of Aemstelland was from the first contact very helpful and flexibel to organise all the Details. Thanks to everybody.
