The canal boat was wonderfully located to enjoy our time in Amsterdam . Whilst compact it was sufficient space for 2 couples . The facilities were good and well designed and this enabled us to cook and eat on the boat whilst watching life go by . From s safety perspective I don’t think it would be suitable for young children or those with significant mobility issues . We however had a wonderful time as did our friends from Switzerland who joined us for part of our time . They are keen to return.
