      Cheap and cheerful - would recommend.
      Great way to kill an hour or so. Very comfortable boat, staff was great and the captain/tour guide seemed to have every language taken care of. And I was nice to have a beer along the way. Great way to see and learn a little about Haarlem.

      Beautiful and relaxing boat trip
      In August 2024 when visiting the beautiful old city of Haarlem we did a 50 minutes boat trip with Smidtje. It was a great experience for 16 euro per person, and gives the visitor beautiful views from the river to the old houses and buildings. It also allows you to enjoy the view of the city of Haarlem without getting tired. A very good recommendation to discover Haarlem on the river.

      Pleasant tour of Haarlem canals with a not very informative recorded guide that didn't always seem to line up with our location. This is billed as a 50-minute tour, but it was only exactly 35 minutes long. Compared to other canal tours I have taken in the Netherlands, this was definitely the least satisfying.

      Brilliant Boat Trip
      Me and my friend had a great time on a lovely summer's day in Haarlem. We had bought beers in the cafe where you buy your tickets for this tour. The nice captain of the boat Flo was fine with me and my friend taking our beers with us on the tour. Flo was a great tour guide, informative and I liked the funny alligator in the water part.

      A lovely way to see Haarlem
      This was a very pleasant way to relax and see the sights from the Haarlem canal. We sat outside to enjoy the breeze on a sunny day, and so couldn’t hear the commentary very well, but it didn’t detract from the trip.

      Fun and interesting boat tour
      Great trip! The captain gave lots of information, told us about the history of Haarlem, added some jokes while we got to enjoy the scenery. The admin team at this company is great too. Earlier we had to cancel due to a scooter accident, the ladies were very friendly and understanding. Re booked us on a trip weeks later. Your service is much appreciated!

      Pleasant boat cruise in Haarlem town centre
      Straightforward booking and organising Audio played through speakers in boat was in English and clear to listen to Friendly staff We were able to do the trip in open boat despite rain and umbrellas were provided if wanted Poor docking at end of trip as another boat was parked on the gangway so another older female customer fell - lack of foresight by the boatman to accommodate her getting up steep steps when we all had to climb across another boat.

      Fun cruise
      Great cruise. But, the captain, and narrator for the cruise had a very heavy accent and it was difficult to understand his english.

      Would have been better without rain.
      Sadly, it was raining most of the time, so water on the windows made it. difficult to see or take pictures. My advice is, if it is raining, go back later when the windows are dry. The information was helpful, but difficult to see things. they did the best they could, and they were very nice, but it rained a lot our week in the Netherlands, so that's that!

      u must do for a city trip
      The captain was extremely friendly and new a lot about the history off Harlem. He gave us lots of information about the 8o year war with the Spanish and the catholic influence on the city of Harlem.

      Personal tour
      I loved that this tour had very few people on the boat, and it felt like we could converse with the captain. We didn’t just have to listen to some earplugs… He was responsive and would answer our questions.

    We had booked through groupon so t price was technically ok but if you pay 40 pp that was not worth it. The boat sails back and forth and the cheese board is very skinny with 3 wines. We did get vd nice lady n refill and the wine quality was very good.
