Hop-on hop-off sightseeingtour van Amsterdam met optionele boottocht

It was a wonderful way to spend a few hours in Amsterdam especially for people with a mobility problem.very interesting exploring the historical and cultural side of the city as well as its evolution into its current success .

Not worth the time or money. They had 1 bus running the full route so the wait time between buses was long. When the bus got to stop 1 it stayed parked for 30 minutes. Narrative was minimal and did not use time between stops to really talk about Amsterdam history. After the bus we didnt even bother with the boat tour. We have been on several good HOHO tours around the world but this one was poor.

★☆☆☆☆ 1/5 — A Total Waste of Time and Money I wish I could give this hop-on, hop-off bus tour of Amsterdam zero stars. Sadly, travel sites haven’t invented a "deep regret" rating — so one star it is. We booked this tour expecting a convenient and flexible way to explore the city. Which we have done in previous city breaks, what we got instead was an overpriced ride through frustration, boredom, and overheating. Let’s start with the wait times: The buses are advertised as arriving every 10–15 minutes. Reality? More like every 30–40, if at all. We sat on the bus in 30-degree heat while the driver had a break and then was changed for an alternative driver while sitting at the 1st stop this should have rung alarm bells. Traffic is a nightmare, but rather than helping you escape it, this tour immerses you in it. You’ll sit on the upper deck slowly baking in the sun while the bus crawls past landmarks you can barely see and stops seem so far away you don’t bother going back. The audio guide is a joke — and not the funny kind. It’s dated, dry, and frequently cuts out or plays over itself. What little commentary we did hear sounded like it was cobbled together from a Wikipedia page read by someone half-asleep. There’s also a weird musical interlude between stops that loops endlessly — imagine elevator music crossed with a dial-up modem. Bottom line: This tour takes everything wonderful about Amsterdam — its charm, walkability, and vibrant culture — and strips it away, replacing it with overpriced tedium. You’re far better off exploring on foot, renting a bike, or hopping on a tram. Trust me: nothing kills the magic of a city faster than being stuck in traffic with thirty other tourists, listening to static and bad music. Avoid at all costs.
