Our tour guide was lovely and so kind! - Lovely tour !! So close to Amsterdam and so easy to get there. and even if the weather isn’t good, it’s worth it!

Amazing sights and stories just minutes away from the city and still a different world - Loved this canoe trip on a golden October day - 2 hours of blissfully quiet paddling through an amazing tranquil landscape filled with waterfowl, the occasional songbird and lots of vows and sheep. Our guide was so knowledgeable and we took enough breaks to rest the arms and learn more about the fascinating history of the Netherlands polders, water rights, ecology, and even some local apple cider and stroop waffles as a special treat. Can’t wait to be back next year when the five hour tour will be available again.

Perfect way to experience a village water way within 15 minutes of Amsterdam center - This was exactly what I was looking for. 2 hours in a canoe on the waterways of a small village just outside of Amsterdam. The host was lovely and the price was reasonable. There are no other tour providers in the area and the group is small. You truly feel like you get out of the city.

Wonderful time - Awesome weather, pretty village houses, a ton of information about the area, dams, canals and it's connection with nature. Up close encounters with curious local cows and sheep (they came to sniff our boats when we were having a break). We saw many birds and some hares and learned how windmills help canals.

What a lovely activity this is, a burst of nature after the bustle of Amsterdam - What a brilliant time we had with Majel. It was like being showed round by a friend. It's a truly beautiful and very interesting area and the canoes were such good fun ( note to self...I definitely need some steering practice for canoes). It was also my friend's first ever trip in a canoe and she loved it. A highly recommended trip.

A highlight of the Netherlands - This paddle tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Amsterdam! Spending a couple hours watching wildlife and getting a better sense of water management in the Netherlands was an excellent experience, even on a chilly day in February. If you get a chance, take this tour! Majel is a great guide.

A new perspective from the water - Loved this tour, it was the perfect complement to a couple of days in the city. Majel knows what’s she’s talking about and gave some good insights into Netherlands history and ecology as we went. We spotted a lot of birds and got great views from the canals. Even with the wind, the canoeing wasn’t too much hard work and still felt relaxing. Would recommend cycling there if you can, it’s flat (of course!) and added to the experience for me. Definitely make sure you have sunscreen!

Fun activity in beautiful natur. - Perfect tour with our 3 kids. Lot to see and learn in 2 hours. Big fun even for our youngest. Thanks a lot for sharing your backyard with us!

Fun in canoes - This was a super fun and rewarding trip. It was pretty easy to get to via the bus from central station. The views were stunning and it was so unique

Bliss in the countryside - What a fantastic way to spend an afternoon outside of Amsterdam! This was a real highlight of our long weekend away. We thoroughly enjoyed canoeing through the countryside, learning about the history of the area, and seeing hares, many birds, swans, and goats. Easy to get to by bus from the city, yet feels miles and miles away. Thanks to Majel for being so welcoming and full of knowledge and enthusiasm for her area, and for providing us some fresh apple juice as a little break midway through the paddle . Not to be missed.
