Giethoorn Guidad dagstur från Amsterdam

This tour is an excellent way to get out of the city and see more of the NL and it's easy and convenient. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The ride to the site comfortable and we stopped at a farm amrket which was an added bonus. We arrived early on a slightly overcast day so it may have been quieter than usual. It was still absolutley beautiful and the bus to the boat ride were seamless. There was lots of time to look around independently and the guides offered valuable suggestions. Lovely trip for all ages.

Most of the time is spent in a big bus. One hr boat ride with hundreds of other boats on a canal that is wide enough for two boats The canal ride reminded me of the boat ride at Disneyland.. One and a half hrs to eat and walk around. The tour ends in a parking lot that is nowhere near the starting point. The tour guild and the boat driver ask for tips. I would not take this tour again or recommend it to my friends.

Tour starts with Amsterdam central area with wonderful info along the way to village. Our tour guide Ebhrahim was amazing and provided us very entertaining and useful insights during the trip. He made everything look so easy to follow. Boat ride is an activity not to miss. Only if free time could be an hr longer than 2 hrs then more to absorb but you always want more…

Our guided tour of Giethoorn was one of the highlights of our trip. The village is absolutely beautiful, but what really made the experience unforgettable were our guides, J and Sergio. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about sharing the history and charm of Giethoorn. They kept the tour engaging from start to finish, answered every question with enthusiasm, and made everyone feel welcome. Their sense of humor, attention to detail, and personal touch turned what could have been just another sightseeing tour into a memorable experience. If you’re visiting Giethoorn, I highly recommend taking this guided tour—especially if you’re lucky enough to have J and Sergio as your guides. They truly went above and beyond to make our day special. Thank you both for an amazing experience!

It is a great idea for a day trip. Giethoorn is absolutely beautiful and a must see. The bus ride is around two hours and you spend 3 hours in Giethoorn. The first hour is on a boat ride; it’s pleasant but be aware that there are massive traffic jams in the canals and sometimes you’re at a total stand still — there is nothing that can be done about that but it actually ends up being entertainment to see all of the boats crash into each other (no one gets hurt). The tour guides were kind and helpful. I felt like it was enough time to see the town, generally speaking, but it was definitely rushed.

Jay was excellent! The only part we didn’t like was that we couldn’t hear the guide on the boat. So maybe sit close to the back if you want to hear. Otherwise great views and plenty of time to get lunch and go in the little shops.

Giethoorn is a beautiful and easily accessible place. The town is very green and peaceful with restaurants offering beautiful views of the canals.

Jay was amazing as was our driver who was a lady who’s name started with M We had a great day Easy directions

Great experience, we had a rough start with the pickup location but they called us and found us and came to us. We loved the 1 hour boat tour and we had plenty of time to eat, shop, drink, and enjoy the views after. It was so worth it!

Geethoorn is a unique village of small thatched roof homes built on an extensive network of canals. There are no cars; you move around by boat or on the walking paths. The village was a bit overrun with tourists and visitors, which somewhat overwhelmed its charm. I’m glad to have seen it though. We got an unexpected extra on the trip when we stopped at a very good farmstand along the way. The farm products were excellent and we had time for tasting and shopping.
