Netherlands Giethoorn Day Tour from Amsterdam

It took two and a half hours to reach Giethoorn. Although there was a 15-minute stop during the journey, there were no restroom facilities available at the stop, so we had to use the bus’s toilet. Upon arriving in Giethoorn, we immediately boarded a one-hour boat tour to enjoy the serene and picturesque surroundings. While the seating on the boat was a bit cramped, the hour-long journey was overall pleasant. Afterward, we had about three hours of free time to explore, take photos, and try the restaurant there. The bus departed promptly at 5 PM to return to Amsterdam. In my personal opinion, the trip was well worth it!

A perfect arrangement of transport with humour and informative your guide. An enjoyable day.

This trip is wonderful and no regret!

The tour departed on time at 10am and journey took us approx. 2 hours. The tour included a boat ride and given a free and easy time for around 4 hours. Back to the Amsterdam Station around 6.45pm. I had a great time walking around the village and took many beautiful photos. Highly recommended to visit this place.

Meeting place was clearly provided with photos. The bus was really comfortable, spacious and the sound quality and projection of tour guide’s voice was loud enough and clear! Giethoorn itself is worth a visit too! Overall recommended!

To be honest, it was a bit boring. We spent half a day traveling, but there really wasn't much there. Apart from the boat tour, it was raining that day, and there weren't many shops. We could only walk around and see the scenery, but the scenery consisted mainly of houses and boats.

The timing was very good, the shuttle bus was very comfortable and the tour guide was friendly

The itinerary was well arranged and there was plenty of time to visit Giethoorn

It's a neighborhood that truly shines when the weather is nice. It's so peaceful. You have to exchange your ticket at the Tour & Ticket Center on the first floor at 9:30 AM.
