The advertisement for the 1 hour…
The advertisement for the 1 hour Amsterdam Lights cruise was overblown. A number of light installations on the Amstel weren’t mentioned at all and even one, an arch resembling a triumphal arch through which the boat passed,was not pointed out. The audio talks mainly about houses (number such and such) which, in the dark, are very difficult to identify and so the information given is of little use. Much of the information is either widely known or advertises other ‘attractions’. Looking forwards from the front seats the view was restricted by clouded windows which would have benefited greatly from a wiping blade being run across them prior to departure, a 30 second job. Lastly, the staff were pleasant and helpful, it just the routine had become tired and stale and so any need for improvement could not rest on their shoulders.
