Overview

Tired of rushed sightseeing? This is your exclusive pass to a full day of tranquility in Giethoorn, the 'Venice of the North'!

Your day begins at 10:00 AM in Amsterdam. Settle into our air-conditioned coach for a scenic journey through the picturesque Dutch countryside.

Your experience includes the signature cruise: you will glide silently past masterfully restored, thatched-roof farmhouses on your included 1-hour boat trip. You'll witness the iconic punters, gondolas, and flat-bottom boats—the heartbeat of this unique community. With generous time to explore, you can savor a leisurely lunch at a waterside café, browse local crafts, or simply find a quiet spot and watch the world float by.

  • 1-hour boat tour of Giethoorn (Please note: weather conditions could have influence on the boat trip)

Frequently Asked Questions (8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Giethoorn Day Trip from Amsterdam with Boat Trip?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
