We booked a private tour for a family of four with Paap and it was honestly the most memorable part of our visit to Amsterdam. If you are looking to do a boat tour of Amsterdam, skip the crowded group tours in closed boats and book with Paap. The private tour was absolutely worth it, especially considering the price per person is the same as, or very similar to the big tours. Paap was a fantastic captain and tour guide, and was beyond accommodating. When he found out our boys wanted to go to the science museum and I wanted to check out some shops... he delivered them right to the museum's doorstep and dropped me off at negen straatjes. Our boys loved the abundance of Lindt chocolates and selection of sodas on board, and we really enjoyed our civilized 'adult' drinks:) Although we have done this already, we will absolutely do it again if we find ourselves in Amsterdam in the future... it's just a lot of fun!
