Worth it - forget the other boat tours

Forget the other "main" boat tours in Amsterdam. Chris and his tour is a great alternative to see the city in your own time and company, while feeling like a local. Would definitely recommend to anyone trying to avoid the more touristy activities in Amsterdam.

Amsterdam Private 2-Hour Boat Tour

Fabulous way to see Amsterdam.

Loved the boat trip. Chris was a great host and his knowledge of the city is extensive. He kindly brought lots of ice, beer and water. Very convenient pick up and drop off. Would definitely use him again.

Weather cancelled our trip

The inclement weather ended altering our trip. We didn't get to take the canal boat tour. Chris assured us we will receive full refund. Due to his busy Sunday schedule we were unable to change our tour.

Amsterdam Private Boat Tour

Great way to experience Amsterdam

Our guide, Iris, was knowledgeable and lead us safely through the city streets, parks and along the canals. We stopped for hot chocolate on the cool morning and learned some history too.

Best part of our trip to Amsterdam!

This was money well spent! Chris was a great guide and we were able to see parts of Amsterdam that the large tour boats don't go to. We had a ton of fun and Chris took great photos of us on the canal. Overall, it was the best thing we did on our trip!

Amsterdam Private Boat Tour

We walked around the city as much as possible the first day we were here and covered 10 miles. We really thought we had seen the city. After this boat tour, we realized we had no idea. This tour was incredible. We saw parts of the city that we never would have imagined existed. Everything on this boat was well thought-out and prepared. It began with our host asking where we were from and making connections between us. He helped us to quickly form a bond with our fellow travelers, and create a once in a lifetime experience. The sights were great (as expected), but more than that, the experience was what was amazing. There were drinks, snacks, and a wealth of knowledge from a local that was priceless. It was easily the best experience that we had here, and we could not more highly recommend it. Do this on day one. You will of course get a full view of the city, but you will also get the best recommendations for restaurants, bars, shopping, and so much more. And if you are as lucky as we are, you will make beautiful new friends along the way!

Amsterdam All-Inclusive 2-Hour Canal Cruise

This experience was one of the best parts of our honeymoon!

It is the perfect way to take in Amsterdam's beauty in a fun, intimate and comfortable setting. James and Geertje were so welcoming and friendly, and we really felt like they put so much thought and effort into making it an enjoyable and memorable experience for everyone on board. Their snack and beverage offerings were great and quite generous. The boat is beautiful and very comfortable. This is something my husband and I will never forget!

Amsterdam All-Inclusive 2-Hour Canal Cruise

Geertje and James have created a personalized tour of the great canals of Amsterdam. I highly recommend forgoing the larger operations and their domed boat options for this simple, charming, and fun experience. Pure Boats has a beautiful boat that brings an elevated feeling to the ride and provide tasteful amenities and a relaxing environment. You can talk about landmarks and history - or simply sit back, relax, and take it all in. Cheers!

Amsterdam Private Boat Tour

Best way to discover Amsterdam!

I definetly recommend the trip with Chris to everybody. We had so much fun and enjoyed the incredible beauty of the city without the touristic masses on the big boats but with icecold drinks. If you are even lucky with the weather as we were, this will be your Amsterdam highlight!

Amsterdam Private Boat Tour

GREAT day on the canals!

Booked a 2hr cruise with Chris, my husband, myself and our two children (5 and 3) were on the cruise. It was an unseasonably HOT day and Chris came prepared with sunscreen! He was amazing with the children and provided as much historical commentary as we would have wanted. He had drinks on board for a very reasonable price and we brought our own food. He took pictures as often as we asked/wanted. Overall, 6stars! I would take cursing with Chris anyday over being packed in a larger tour boat.... Especially when cruising with children, unobstructed views and some room to stretch out (along with drinks and food)! Cruise with Chris, you won’t regret it!

Perfect time

Very good organisation, everything was clear before doing the shooting (fees, place of the meeting...) The photographer was very nice and flexible. The pictures are very good quality and beautiful!

Private 1-Hour Professional Photo Shoot in Amsterdam

Wonderful canal tour

Chris treated us to a fantastic tour of Amsterdam. It was a sunny day, quite cool (ice was forming in some places!) but we stayed warm with the help of blankets and laughter. If you want a private boat on the canals, this is the way to go. It's a different perspective from the water, and much more personal than a big tour boat. Plus you can ask Chris about the things that you are most interested in seeing and doing, favorite restaurants, bars and activities. We brought some of our own drinks, and were happy to have his cooler full of beer and wine when we ran out. Cheers to Captain Chris!

Biking Around Amsterdam

This tour was a fun way to bike around the city, see some of the sights, and learn a little about its history.

Chris was very helpful and friendly

We took a 1 hour tour with Chris on the 20th of February. We had a great time on the boat. There were many blankets on board although we didn't need any as the weather was sunny. I highly recomment it!

Amsterdam Private Boat Tour

Amazing!

Loved the tour! Very informative and a lovely cycle route- very peaceful and safe because we went to the quieter areas of Amsterdam. Loved learning about the history and seeing all the places we would of missed without the tour! Would highly recommend this to anyone who is staying for a few days.
