It went well! We had to wait for the boat to be cleaned before we could get on, but that wasn't really a problem. Otherwise, a very nice boat and a great ride, very comfortable.

It was comfortable and super safe boat journey with an amazing history conversation, and art brochure. Rob is great captain 👨‍✈️ and I wouldn’t say that he is skipper. I liked his style too. And I’m ok to pay more for next time to get to know more about Netherlands, Amsterdam and him. Thanks for sharing your opinions Rob. I appreciate your time, patience and knowledge.
