Review of Amsterdam’s 90-minute evening canal cruise with cheese, wine, craft beer, city lights, and a small group of up to 24.
“Our guide was super friendly. The group had a great time. Highly recommend. I left a pair of Costa sunglasses on the boat if anyone could hunt them down. Too many Heineken!”
Tour Rotterdam’s Stadshaven Brewery in a restored fruit warehouse, see modern brewing methods, and taste local beer with snacks.

Explore Amsterdam’s craft beer scene by luxury bus, visiting three breweries and tasting nine beers in a friendly three-hour tour.
“A great tour! You will visit three small breweries just outside the centre of Amsterdam. At each brewery you'll taste three delicious craft beers after which the Brew bus will take you to the next brewery. In the bus the guide will tell you interesting and funny facts about beer and Amsterdam. I did the tour with some friends, but you can also do it on your own because you're guaranteed to get to know people during the tour. In short: great tour if you are into craft beer!”

Taste Dutch craft beer, jenever, cheese, and snacks while exploring Amsterdam canals, brown cafés, Dam Square, and the Red Light District.
“Was a fun experience overall. My only suggestion is moving the initial meeting spot. Having the group meet in a large square filled with hundreds of people is confusing and there wasn't really any obvious way to identify the group. I had search for about 10 minutes to find the group and there were others who didn't show up and I suspect for that reason. How about moving the meeting place to the first bar on the list in the future? That way if people are late they can still find you and join in.”

Review of Amsterdam’s one-hour craft beer tasting with five Dutch beers, cheese, sausage, nuts, local stories, price, and practical tips.
“Our guide arrived a couple of minutes after the event was supposed to start and she never really recovered. (apparently her bus was late, it happens) We tasted several good beers and had some nice snacks - but four of the five beers were from the same brewery and the guide didn't do much beyond serving us and reading the labels. She also didn't do anything to encourage the attendees to chat and mingle. The location was also odd - the basement cafeteria of a youth hostel - not a bad space exactly but it certainly didn't make you want to linger. Also wasn't ideal that the hostel folks were…”
