Forced to give a one star

Forced to give a one star, faced a very rude staff who talked rude to us while using the pay n use toilet in the cofee shop .Why would we jump line to to save a couple of euros when we can buy 3 cruise tickets! No wonder the ratings are so poor. That is not 'NORMAL' behaviour while serving customets girl!.

Onbeleefde medewerkers.

Op dinsdagmiddag 10 juni had ik een nare ervaring bij de ticketbalie van Lovers Canal Cruises bij Amsterdam Centraal. Ik vroeg op een normale en vriendelijke manier of ik recht had op korting met mijn pas. De medewerker van de klantenservice – die ik op dat moment telefonisch sprak – bevestigde dat dit inderdaad het geval was. Tot mijn verbazing weigerden de dames bij de kassa dit te accepteren. Sterker nog: ze vielen de medewerker van de klantenservice verbaal aan, terwijl ik het gesprek via de telefoon volgde. Het was ronduit vijandig en ongemakkelijk om als klant tussen twee interne medewerkers te staan die zo met elkaar omgaan. Ik voelde me totaal niet welkom. Uiteindelijk ben ik zonder tickets vertrokken omdat ik me er ronduit onprettig bij voelde. Dit is niet wat je verwacht van een organisatie die toeristen en bezoekers op een prettige manier wil ontvangen. Een zeer teleurstellende ervaring.

I am so glad we got to see the most…

I am so glad we got to see the most beautiful canals of Amsterdam from the water. You get to see and learn about the architecture and the history of the city. Our captain was fun and friendly, making some extra comments on top of the audio guide for a more personal experience.

We pre-booked a 2.00pm Lovers cruise…

We pre-booked a 2.00pm Lovers cruise which we intended to board on the canal in front of the Rijks Museum. The season is spring/summer. The temperature was about 20deg. On arrival, we were informed that there was to be no 2.00pm cruise and we would have to wait for the 2.30pm cruise. I asked if a refund could be claimed and was told "No". We boarded the 2.30pm boat and all looked good. It was not a busy day and there were only about 6 other people looking to board. Then we were told to disembark because we were to cruise on another boat with a large group which might spill over to 2 boats. Great (groan), the boat was going to be full. Anyway, about the cruise itself. The boat was covered with a perspex top and solid framework. This was not too hot under the sun, but our position up the front precluded the possibility of taking any decent photos and limited what you could see. Commentary through supplied ear phones was pretty poor and intermittent and often, during an important piece of information about a particular building or landmark, the captain would come on the PA to point out that feature. Listening to both the captain and the ear phone commentary meant that you basically heard neither. I'm sure the captain meant well but we would have been better off if he stayed quiet. Overall, I feel that this cruise was a waste of 35EUR for 2 of us. I would recommend, if you wish to do a canal cruise, choose an open boat with no cover and enjoy the sun and better view.

Lohnt sich nicht.

Amsterdam Light Festival 2022 - 2023 die Lichtkunst sei so angebracht das man sie gut sehen kann, bei manchen konnte man nur einen Teil erkenne da sie so angebracht waren das man sie nur sieht wenn man vorne sitzt und direkt drauf zu fährt. Meines Erachtens lohnt sich der Aufschlag für das Light Festival nicht. Die Tagesfahrt lohnt sich mit den Informationen über die Bauwerke in Amsterdam aber die Lichterfahrt kann man sich sparen.

Als je niet digitaal vaardig bent

Als je niet digitaal vaardig bent, en een ticket wil bestellen met de stadspas, is de site onduidelijk. Een aparte optie voor de stadspas zou duidelijker zijn. Dus naast de kortingscode.

Mai più

Inutile spendere 26 euro per un cruise e non riuscire a vedere fuori dall'imbarcazione. Per fare qualche foto decente mi sono dovuta sedere fuori con - 2°C, per più di un'ora. Sicuramente non consigliato e da non rifare.

Light festival isn’t very good. Feel like our money could be spent on a better tourist attraction.

Er wordt reclame gemaakt dat het een verwarmde boot is, maar er worden zoveel tickets verkocht dat we buiten moesten zitten op het achterdek, omdat binnen geen plaats meer was. Het was heel erg koud, je kan dan ook niet vooruit kijken en ook boven je het het minder open dan als je binnen zit. Al met al viel het dus erg tegen. Doen we niet meer. 17 december om 19.45 uur
