Giethoorn Small Public Tour from Amsterdam with Boat Ride

Description

Discover Giethoorn with Tulip Day Tours, a multiple award-winning tour operator. This small public tour departs from Amsterdam Central Station (hotel pick-up optional). Enjoyment starts when on the way when you watch the landscape of Netherlands’ newest province Flevoland pass by -built on reclaimed land- as your friendly and professional guide shares interesting information about the Netherlands.

Upon arrival, embark on a whisper boat ride and have your guide show you Giethoorn from the water. Pass by the many farmhouses that are built on small islands, which can only reached by boat bridge, of which the majority of the more than 176 bridges is privately owned. The only continuous connection through the old village by land is a bicycle and walking path that runs from north to south.

After the boat tour you have some personal time. Wander around, visit the cheese shop, the gemstone museum or try some herring! Meet with your guide again for the transfer back to Amsterdam.

This experience is offered all year around. Giethoorn is beautiful in every season but in Spring and Summer the village can be quite busy; especially in the weekends. Albeit a bit colder, in Fall Giethoorn is gorgeous as the leaves change and in Winter the village is quiet and authentic.
