THIS IS NOT A REVIEW OF ST NICOLAAS BOAT CLUB. IT REVIEWS ANOTHER OPERATOR THAT IS CAPITALISING ON FOOT TRAFFIC INTENDED FOR ST NICOLAAS. We went looking for the St Nicolaas Boat Club registration book at the Boom Chicago club after seeking a document on the web saying that's what we needed to do to book our place. We were... More

This was by far the best thing we did in Amsterdam, and quite possibly on our entire European tour! A bottle of wine, some nice cheese, and uber-informative tour guide on a beautiful sunny day made this boat ride an unforgettable experience! A cause I was more than happy to donate to! - Neil R More

LOVED this. After wanting to do a canal boat tour...and NOT wanting to be enclosed with a buncha tourists, I discovered this cool option! The folks that drive you about are volunteers that just love to show off their city in a GREAT old, open boat! Just loved it. Bring a picnic or bevvies or whatever you choose and enjoy... More

The tour was fun, focusing on some unusual aspect of amsterdam, but mostly outside the center. We even had to bend down under the lowest bridge of amsterdam, wich was really fun. But I did not like the fact that they say the tour is free when it is not. Our host spent the first and the last 15min explaining... More

This is a FREE tour through the Amsterdam canals, on a small motor boat, with a guide. It's a great way to get a feel for the city, and to see the amazing architecture. It's also nice not to be on one of the big touristy boats, but instead on a small boat that can even go under the lowest... More

I have searched for boat rides in TripAdvisor and came along the reviews of the St. Nicolaas Boat Club. Since I was looking for a small boat that could go under the smaller bridges and did not want the crowd that goes in the large boats, this seemed to be the best option. And it was!! Our captain was Diego,... More

We're an expat family originally from the UK and often take trips with the St Nicolas Boat Club when friends and family are in town and bar none, it's the best way to see Amsterdam from the water. As a long time fan I feel like these guys need a bit of a shout out! Whilst the tourist boats are... More

My friend and I took this boat trip and were too excited about the zero price. We read some blogs about this company, but it must have been to old. I dont know. Basicly, the blog said the tour was really for free, even if you want to tip them, they kindly refuse as they like to be a non... More

I'm not one for guided tours, but when in a city that is so canal based, it made sense to check this out. The tour was perfect - just enough information without being overwhelming or annoying, the right amount of time on the boat, and the guide cultivated a fun, open ambiance. We looked like we were having more fun... More
