Giethoorn day trip from Amsterdam



Spend a full day in Giethoorn, the Netherlands’ peaceful “Venice of the North,” and enjoy a rare escape from the modern world. Experience the authentic Dutch lifestyle on and along the water in a relaxed, unhurried setting.

Your day begins with a 1-hour signature boat cruise, gliding past restored thatched-roof farmhouses and taking in the iconic punters, gondolas, and flat-bottom boats that define this unique village. After the cruise, you’ll have ample time to explore at your own pace. Stroll through charming streets, browse local crafts, or enjoy a quiet moment by a wooden bridge.

Enjoy a leisurely lunch at a waterside café, and benefit from your guide’s insider knowledge of hidden spots and regional delicacies.

This 7.5-hour tour offers a complete and relaxed experience, combining culture, scenic beauty, and unforgettable memories in Giethoorn.
