My partner (now 'fiancée') and I had a fantastic experience! We were able to experience the Amsterdam light festival, and thoroughly enjoyed being guided through the city in tranquility. Thank you again!

Great tour through the prettiest part of Amsterdam. The host was relaxed and enthusiastic, he knew a lot about both the area and about the art pieces. The cushions were heated and there were blankets so even in the cold and rain we were warm and very cosy. He put the best Dutch snacks on the table: stroopwafels, Dutch cheese amongst other things. The boat is small and quiet so the setting was really intimate, way more romantic then the big noisy boats we saw on the way. Very good pick!

Thank you Rocco, really enjoyed this trip over Christmas. You made us feel very much at home on your boat and the lights were special.

Very relaxing experience, great guide, very informative. The boat was just perfect for our group of 7, small enough to be cosy, big enought to have comortable space. Overall super experience.

We did the Amsterdam Light Tour with family and friends. The heated seats were very comfortable. Rocco moves the boat (electric and noiseless!) very smoothly through the canals. He tunes in very well to the guests when he tells his story. And he ensures that all guests, whether they are seated on the left or right, can clearly see the light objects.

One thing that I want to say Infront the whole world is that Rocco and his Romantic Tour Amsterdam is the most immaculate, full of passion and professionalism, true to his love and passion of providing an unforgettable experience. I proposed to the love of my life in his boat, and even though I was stressed about organising it, Rocco and his service went above and beyond to match what I wanted. Let me say this - it was even better than planned. Rocco, you deserve everything and more. My recommendation goes out to everyone !!! If you're going Amsterdam - Rocco is your man for the greatest experience you'll ever have!!!! All the Love 💖 Kris - Cyprus.

Light sculptures were unlike other holiday experiences. The trip went at a pleasant speed unlike most other canal boat tours. Nice small number of passengers in the group so we could enjoy each other’s company. Tour guide was very informed about all the sculptures origins. Warm seats!

I can't emphasize enough how great this tour was, and is one of my favorite experiences I've ever booked in my travels. Rocco was a great tour guide and is knowledgeable and brought his personal experiences which made the whole tour intimate and special. The history and personal anecdotes were great and I highly, highly recommend this experience. I would rate more than 5 stars if I could!

We loved very much to be so close to all the light - and the guide, who knows so many facts and stories about all that. The little boat gave us a private atmosphere and the possibility to enjoy the tour by hot drinks and tasty foods.
