Amazing how much history is in this boat. It beats going to a museum. If you like sailing don't miss this experience.

Although Tom explained that his boat was too high to go under all the bridges in Amsterdam I didn't quite appreciate that the alternative meant we'd only be visiting the Ij. I now know this is the industrial north port of amsterdam and not that attractive, nor did it feel like being in Amsterdam. The boat in itself was lovely, plenty of room - with a roof so didn't have to worry if it started raining, and Tom was charming enough, I just felt sad that I'd not shown my friends the best of amsterdam, which I could have done on a regular canal boat for a fifth of the price - but obviously I should have done a bit more research.

Very good system of picking up the boat. Nice boat and nice experience. Perhaps a bit too expensive. Could have used better order confirmation as many things (for first time use) was unclear.

Got slightly lost (the map was slightly hard to follow at first) but was soon very enjoyable.

We wanted to give my (Italian) in-laws a special treat, and special it was. The boat is a gem with every comfort available, wine and snacks were first-rate and skipper Nico Bax was both friendly and discrete. The weather was wonderful, so there was plenty of traffic on the canals, but he did an expert job of making sure our trip was safe and memorable, door-to-door. A truly lovely way to see the city!

We had a lovely afternoon, a great skipper! (roel)
Roel took his time with the children, explained the 'water rules' and how to twist and turn through the canals using walkie talkie communication :) the kids loved it while the big kids hung out aft enjoying a glass of ros. It costs 'a little' but it was absolutely awesome!

overall we were very satisfied with the service. the captain was very approachable and friendly, so was his assistant.
It was however very plain inside, i thought maybe they could have decorated it a bit more. maybe thats not common with these kind of boats, but its just a thought!?
if we have another function we will definitely consider this boat again.

We are staying in Amsterdam for business and asked our hotel concierge to book us a boat for an evening canal cruise. He booked us a private dinner on board Her Royal Highness. What a superb suggestion. Wonderful evening. Many thanks and hope to return soon.

This is great. I have had many cruises but was always missing something more suited for a more trendy audience. The HRH has it all.

Very kind staff, a bit disappointed by food, not about the quality for the food was good, but it is not very efficient having all the food at once, not really room on the tables to put the dishes and small plates would be a plus (eating sat with the sauce dripping in your hand..). The boat is beautiful and we have had a wonderful evening.

Captain Joost was a very pleasant young man - very helpful on pointing out fun facts about the city during our cruise. We plan to charter the Paradis again!

Very good. Captain showed up at pickup point exactly on time, was both courteous and informative, gave us a great tour of AMsterdams canals, and brought us back exactly on time as well. Me and my friends were very impressed.

Very pleasant, the pick up and boat ride was exactly what we hoped for and expected. It was a very nice time. Some guests commented that the skipper was not very friendly and rather grouchy, but the woman on board helping with drinking was very sweet.

Fine boat, friendly staff. Just one medium size table for 11 persons is not enough. Catering not quite okay. Food (Spanish, 44 euro p.p.) too expensive in relation to quality. Bread, olives, aioli, salt and peppar were missing.
