Great for my one-day stint in Amsterdam with my brother. We found what we were looking for... in most cases. There was this floating bar / boat trip around the city's waterways that we had a hard time finding. We had to wind all around the city, but did find it. Only it wasn't in operation anymore and the only way we knew it was the boat was that it was all run down with old bar tables and glasses rolling about on the deck, and there was the faint stamp of a weed leaf on the side, which was painted over with new white paint. But you knew it was the right boat and it looked like people had a pretty bomb time on that thing.

But not us. We ended up taking the cheeseball tour with other tourists in a sanitary / no-booze boat.
