Flagship Biking Tours was a great experience - we did the bike tour into the countryside with Skip…read more(excellent tour guide). This specific tour started in the city center and then moved to the countryside for a stop at a local farm with cheese and farm animals. Recommendation: stick to regular bikes and skip the e-bike option. The e bikes are expensive and are a bit of a hassle to keep turning back on after each stop. Bike ride was about 12 miles but very flat, so beginners will be fine. Flagship was very accommodating and due to an issue with our booking, was able to offer either a free boat tour or partial refund. Kind people, consider supporting the business!

Rode my bike over to ROEIcentrum - the "Rowing Center" to learn how to row a boat on the Amstel…read more Was with a group of lady friends and we all gathered together while Pablo showed us how to get in and out of the boat (I didn't know you could step right through the bottom of the boat if you step in the wrong place), and the correct way to hold the oar and row in synch. The "in synch" part is critical - otherwise, you're going around in circles and hooting in fear. After some instruction inside in the tank, we were out on the river four to a boat, with an instructor up front telling us why our skinny little boat wouldn't topple over and when to "go." I focused on rowing in synch with the person up front, and making sure I didn't drag my oar - which did all kinds of crazy things to the boat's stability and made us all shriek. And after awhile, I got into the rhythm of it and didn't think of anything but the sun at my back and rowing. I'm going back in early July to take lessons - which are tres reasonable (just EU 100 for 7 weeks). Additional bonus: the female instructor who headed up our boat had the most beautifully toned arms....surely, if I keep rowing this will happen to me!

This place is just too damn fun! Lessons are very reasonably priced and all of the instructors I've…read morehad are very supportive and kind. It's also a nice and inexpensive place to grab a glass of wine or a beer, especially when the weather is good. I'm looking forward to more classes here.

We aimed for the 8:45PM slot for sunset views and it was a great way to end the day! Pick-up and drop-off are at the same dock. I'm not sure if private tours are the default but our group was large enough to fill up a boat. We also had unlimited beer, wine, and soda for the whole experience. Unfortunately, you won't be able to bring anything else on board so keep the hard liquor at home! Our tour guide (Elena) was fantastic and I really liked how she just matched our vibe. In the beginning, she asked what kind of tour we wanted like educational or to be left alone. We opted for educational and learned so many interesting facts about the city. We got history, culture, and current events and she knew most of the answers to our questions. At the end, she gave us some great recommendations for nightlife in the city. Elena also did the entire tour in English! Highly recommend if it's your first time in Amsterdam!
