- Really recommend this early morning canal cruise. It’s great because Jan provided such great knowledge throughout the trip, it was intimate and lovely on the vessel, quiet on the water due to the time. 100% make time for this tour!read moreread lessConnor04/05/24

- Woaaaahhhh!! I absolutely loved sharing this experience with my Mom! Captain Dave is an absolute character that knows his stuff. He's funny and witty and keeps you laughing the whole time, which I loved. The view the whole time is absolutely beautiful because of the boats open windows and open roof. He made sure everyone was comfortable with whatever drinks and bread they wanted. A true professional. Don't miss out on this experience if you are second guessing it. Just do it! The boat is super gorgeous and comfortable. Sit down and put your butt on the original cushions that royals sat on. 😜 You might even learn a few new things.read moreread lessJake02/05/24

The boat is small enough to go where touristy boats cannot, yet big enough to comfortably hold a group of 12 people. Captain Dave was a great communicator and did a wonderful job breaking the ice with passengers and making everyone feel comfortable. He is a great storyteller too! I highly recommend this tour!read moreread lessLisa01/05/24We’ve done a lot of tours in Europe but by far Captain Dave’s has been the best. Funny, irreverent in a good way and just makes the whole experience a lot of fun! Thanks Captain Dave!read moreread lessDanny01/05/24
