“It was easy to find the location. The boat was comfortable, and the food was good. However, the guide we had was the worst ever. I do not remember his name, but he said he was Norwegian and had long hair. He didn’t tell us much info about Amsterdam at all. He was pleasant but talked mostly about politics and beer. He ignored me when I asked a specific question and kept talking about beer. My sister was ready to jump out of the boat about 10 minutes into the cruise. It was that bad. I’m sure this could have been a wonderful experience for my sister and me but…”
