A different view of many of Amsterdam's sights and it's fascinating history. A canal cruise is well worth the effort. Try one of the evening cruises which has food and drink included. The only negati… Full review by Dreamer15421559293

Which canal trip do you recommend? Lovers or something else?

It's been a long time for me, so I cannot recommend anything specific. I googled around a bit and I suggest you check google for the "ihg" blog and 6-boat-tours-amsterdam (sorry, TA does not allow hyperlinks), it will give a nice overview of available tours companies.
