The cruise lasts about 3 hours. its a small intimate setting, we sat up beside the captain, who pointed out all the sights. The thing i really enjoyed about this tour is that the captain wasnt constantly talking, he pointed out the big things, and points of interest, but for the most part, the cruise felt like a romantic dinner...

My wife and I booked the cruise for our last night in Amsterdam before we headed home after a short break. There are several choices for dinner cruises (most from larger tour operators), but this one stood out to us a being more intimate and authentic. We were not disappointed. We arrived shortly before departure and recieved out welcome drinks... More

We loved the Jewel dinner cruise. The boat was beautiful and the food was incredible. We enjoyed watching Amsterdam go by from the water, from daylight to sunset and then nighttime. It was a great ride. More

My husband and I spent a few days in Amsterdam for his 30th birthday. This is one of our favorite cities and have visited several times but have never taken a canal cruise so we decided on the dinner cruise as a part of his birthday present. We were both quite impressed with the friendliness and the attention to detail... More

From the Agatha Christie-esque 1930 wooden boat with its candlelit linen clothed tables, to the wonderful food and drinks, this cruise was well worth spending a little extra on. Chamapagne, olives and nuts on arrival set the scene. Captain Walter and Mareilla the waitress were perfect hosts. This was a magical evening and we loved it. My only comment would... More

I agree with the previous reviewers: the boat ride is always pleasant, and the Amsterdam canals are unique and very picturesque. I wish the captain would talk more about the history or the buildings we were passing. Overall though, a must when visiting Amsterdam. More

The "Jewel Cruise" is definitely the best cruise in Amsterdam, I spent several months in the city and tried out different ones. It is approximately 25 € p.p. more expensive than most of the other dinner cruises, but has several big advantages: a romantic and intimate atmosphere, an individual table for each couple, and classical music. Furthermore, the boat is... More
