Visita express a Ámsterdam, para tener una primera toma de contacto con la ciudad. Excursión bien organizada, Antonio, nuestro guia, un excelente profesional, bilingue español-inglés, atento en todo el trayecto en bus y paseo en barco, buen comunicador y te mantenía pendiente de las explicaciones . Un viaje en bus muy tranquilo, un conductor muy bueno (Roberto). En esta excursión sólo se tienen 3 horas para visitar la ciudad, no ds tiempo de mucho, pero al menos te ds una visión global. Translate this opinion into English.

A quick visit to Amsterdam, perfect for a first glimpse of the city. The tour was well-organized, and our guide, Antonio, was an excellent professional, bilingual in Spanish and English, attentive throughout the bus and boat trip, a good communicator, and kept us engaged with his explanations. The bus journey was very comfortable, and the driver (Roberto) was excellent. This tour only allows three hours to visit the city, which isn't enough time for much, but it does provide a good overview. Opinion translated. Show original.

La ciudad muy bonita, los canales, el paseo en barco, muchísima gente en la calle… Lo único que para un día se queda corto, entre el paseo en barco, la hora de la comida y un pequeño paseo se viene la hora de la vuelta. Pediría a los que organizan la excursión de que dejen a los que venimos su quiera una horita más para poder ver algo aunque sea, lo digo para futuras excursiones… Translate this opinion into English.

The city is very beautiful, the canals, the boat trip, lots of people in the streets… The only thing is that it's too short for one day; between the boat trip, lunchtime, and a short walk, it's already time to head back. I would ask the organizers of the excursion to allow those of us who want an extra hour to see at least something. I'm saying this for future excursions… Opinion translated. Show original.

Actividad agotadora. Mucho tiempo en el bus (3 horas de ida y otras 3 de vuelta) lo que, unido al paseo en barco, deja poco tiempo para ver la cuidad. Por otro lado, no le veo mucho sentido a llevar un guía en esta actividad, ya que la visita la hace cada uno por su cuenta (lo que nos contó en el bus era lo que yo tenía descargado en el móvil). Actividad mejorable.

Exhausting activity. A long time on the bus (3 hours each way) which, combined with the boat trip, leaves little time to see the city. Furthermore, I don't see much point in having a guide on this activity, since everyone explores independently (what the guide told us on the bus was just what I had downloaded on my phone). This activity could be improved.

La excursión son muchas horas de bus y pocas en Amsterdam, pero eso es algo obvio que sabes desde que reservas la actividad. Sin embargo, nuestra guía Estela nos dió recomendaciones para aprovechar al máximo nuestra visita y pudimos aprovecharla muy bien. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour involves many hours on the bus and very little time in Amsterdam, but that's something you know as soon as you book the activity. However, our guide Estela gave us recommendations to make the most of our visit, and we were able to enjoy it very much. Opinion translated. Show original.

Julian nuestro guia todo un profesional. Excursion bilingüe hablaba en español y repetia lo mismo en ingles y viceversa. Paseo en barco muy ameno y muy bien explicado por nuestro guia. Tres horas libres para visitar Amsterdam, muy bonita con sus canales y sus calles. Mencionar también a nuestro conductor por un trayecto perfecto. Translate this opinion into English.

Julian, our guide, was a true professional. The tour was bilingual; he spoke in Spanish and repeated the same thing in English, and vice versa. The boat trip was very enjoyable and very well explained by our guide. We had three hours of free time to visit Amsterdam, which is beautiful with its canals and streets. We also want to mention our driver for a perfect journey. Opinion translated. Show original.

Muy buena experiencia, Julián, el guía, atento, amable, puntual. No se le podría pedir más. Únicamente y no creo que sea un problema suyo, los tour en dos lenguas siempre relegan una de ellas y repito que Julián ha hecho todo genial, pero deberían revisar este tema los proveedores del servicio. En cualquier caso el Guía y el conductor impecables Translate this opinion into English.

A very good experience. Julián, the guide, was attentive, friendly, and punctual. You couldn't ask for more. The only issue, and I don't think it's his fault, is that bilingual tours always tend to downplay one language. Again, Julián did everything perfectly, but the service providers should review this. In any case, the guide and driver were impeccable. Opinion translated. Show original.

El guía y el conductor excelentes. La excursión en barco tambien muy bien y el capitan del barco muy profesional. La única pega que le pondría es que hay muy poco tiempo para recorrer la ciudad ya que hay varias cosas que visitar. No tuve tiempo ni para comer ni ir al baño siquiera. Y el punto de encuentro es un poco alejado de la ciudad. Translate this opinion into English.

The guide and driver were excellent. The boat trip was also very good, and the captain was very professional. My only complaint is that there's very little time to explore the city, as there are several things to see. I didn't even have time to eat or use the restroom. And the meeting point is a bit far from the city. Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad estuvo muy bien, eso sí, el traslado fue bastante pesado 3 horas y media de ida y venida...la verdad que es un poco pesado. De resto el paseo en barco, la visita a Amsterdam y tanto la guía Estela y el chófer (que no recuerdo el nombre) todo genial. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was great, although the transfer was quite long—three and a half hours round trip...it was a bit tiring, to be honest. Otherwise, the boat trip, the visit to Amsterdam, and both the guide Estela and the driver (whose name I don't remember) were fantastic. Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad fue estupenda. Sabrina es una guía excepcional, que no dejó de contarnos cosas tanto de Ámsterdam como de Bruselas (en el caso de Bruselas en el trayecto de ida, al salir de la ciudad), incluyendo datos curiosidades de ambas ciudades. El paseo en barco fue muy enriquecedor y sobre todo adecuado a las personas que solo vayan a ir ese día a la ciudad. Se ve una visión muy completa de la ciudad aunque no se acceda a los sitios. Una excursión muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was fantastic. Sabrina is an exceptional guide who kept us entertained with information about both Amsterdam and Brussels (in the case of Brussels, on the outbound journey, as we were leaving the city), including interesting facts about both cities. The boat trip was very enriching and especially suitable for people who are only visiting the city for the day. You get a very comprehensive view of the city even without going on board. A highly recommended excursion. Opinion translated. Show original.

Él paseó en barco me gusto mucho. Me hubiera gustado la posibilidad de que la guía nos hubiera hecho una ruta por la ciudad. Cuando no conoces, no sabes que hacer en esas horas. Estas más pendiente del lugar del encuentro y hora para irnos. Cuando lo contraté pensé que iba incorporado. Translate this opinion into English.

I really enjoyed the boat ride. I would have liked the possibility of the guide taking us on a tour of the city. When you don't know, you don't know what to do during those hours. You're more focused on the meeting place and time to leave. When I booked it, I thought it was included. Opinion translated. Show original.

Nos gustó mucho la excursión, el guía, Pablo, muy majo y con explicaciones interesantes, dispuesto a responder todas las preguntas. Lo malo de la excursión es que hay poco tiempo para ver la ciudad, pero aún así merece la pena la experiencia. Por otro lado, el conductor de bus, Víctor, también genial; mi novia se suele marear en bus y no se mareó nada En general una excursión recomendada Translate this opinion into English.

We really enjoyed the tour, the guide, Pablo, was very nice and provided interesting explanations, always willing to answer all questions. The downside of the tour is that there is little time to see the city, but it is still worth the experience. On the other hand, the bus driver, Víctor, was also great; my girlfriend usually gets motion sickness on buses and she didn't feel sick at all. Overall, a recommended tour. Opinion translated.

Realmente merece la pena para conocer un poco Amsterdan, Pablo un guia genial. De las mejores excursiones, sobretodo por Pablo, gran conocedor de la historia y contumbres tanto de Belgica como de Paises Bajos. Igualmente gracias al conductor que a pesar de haber mucho trafico a la vuelta, se ve que es un profesional que consiguio hacer el trayecto facil. Translate this opinion into English.

It's definitely worth it to get a glimpse of Amsterdam. Pablo is a fantastic guide. One of the best excursions, especially thanks to Pablo, who has extensive knowledge of the history and customs of both Belgium and the Netherlands. Thanks also to the driver who, despite heavy traffic on the return trip, was clearly a professional and made the journey easy. Opinion translated. Show original.

Habíamos reservado excursión en español y fue en inglés y español, aparte de franceses que la liaron a la vuelta, decepcionante en la reserva pone Tour en español, más abajo pone que la guía habla inglés y castellano, está vez civitatis me ha decepcionado y en la vuelta de Ansterdan gente no respeto su sitio y la lio.

We had booked a tour in Spanish, but it was in English and Spanish, apart from some French people who caused a scene on the way back. Disappointing. The booking says "Tour in Spanish," but further down it says the guide speaks English and Spanish. This time, Civitatis has disappointed me, and on the way back from Amsterdam, some people didn't respect their place and caused a mess.

La experiencia ha sido negativa en el sentido que es muy poco tiempo el que estás visitando la ciudad , se pasa casi todo el tiempo en el viaje de autobús y el paseo en barco que era cubierto y apenas se veía la ciudad , el tiempo libre es muy corto y tienes que ir corriendo de un lado para otro si quieres visitar lo más importante de Amsterdan, la ciudad preciosa pero poco tiempo . El guía se ha portado bien y educado pero muy escaso de explicación y concepto es poco empatico y comunicador .

The experience was negative in that you have very little time to visit the city; almost all of it is spent on the bus journey and the boat trip, which was covered and offered little view of the city. Free time is very short, and you have to rush around if you want to see the most important sights in Amsterdam. The city is beautiful, but there's just too little time. The guide was polite and well-mannered, but his explanations and understanding of the city were lacking; he wasn't very empathetic or communicative.

Decepcionada totalmente. Siempre he contratado mis tours con Civitatis y, hasta ahora, había tenido muy buenas experiencias; sin embargo, este tour no cumplió con mis expectativas y considero que el costo es demasiado elevado para el servicio recibido. En Ámsterdam el recorrido no fue guiado, por lo que me sentí completamente desubicada. No nos proporcionaron una ruta clara ni recomendaciones concretas sobre qué lugares visitar o cómo aprovechar el tiempo disponible, al final me sobró tiempo.

Completely disappointed. I've always booked my tours with Civitatis and, until now, had had very good experiences; however, this tour didn't meet my expectations, and I think the price is far too high for the service received. In Amsterdam, the tour wasn't guided, so I felt completely lost. They didn't provide us with a clear route or any concrete recommendations on what places to visit or how to make the most of our time; in the end, I had way too much time.
