Description
Giethoorn is a peaceful village in the province Overijssel that is often referred to as the 'Little Venice' of the Netherlands, due to its numerous waterways and absence of roads and cars. Its beautiful canals, picturesque wooden bridges, and farmhouses with centuries-old thatched roofs give it a unique fairy-tale vibe. The tour will take you from Amsterdam to Giethoorn by bus, where you will cruise the canals by boat and have time to explore the town on your own.

Cumplió con todo lo que prometía y un poco más. Muy bueno que incluyera transporte en un autobús con aire acondicionado. El precio es honesto para lo que se recibe. No lo dudes, reservalo.

Lo volvería a hacer sin dudarlo. Sale más que hacerlo suelto, pero te ahorra toda la organización. Que venga con ingreso a la iglesia de Dutch Venice hace toda la diferencia. Ideal para tener un panorama general y después volver a lo que más te gustó. Muy recomendable para cualquier edad.

Does what it says on the tin. We loved the Paises Baixos area. A really practical way to get your bearings on day one. The guide was good, though I would have liked more time for questions. We got more out of transport in a airconditioned coach than we expected. Drinks at the venue are wildly overpriced. A good option, especially on a first visit.

Una experiencia redonda. El punto de encuentro estaba bien indicado y fácil de ubicar. El guía nos dio recomendaciones de dónde comer que resultaron buenísimas. Si volvemos a Amsterdam, lo repetimos.
