Description
Giethoorn Day Trip from Amsterdam: Self-Drive Boat Experience
Discover Giethoorn from the best seat in the village: behind the wheel of your own electric boat. Travel from Amsterdam by luxury coach, then take to the water and explore the canals at your own pace.
Your private boat accommodates up to seven guests, and you are the captain. Steer beneath wooden bridges, glide past thatched-roof farmhouses and take your time enjoying the peaceful scenery. The electric boat is easy to operate, so you can relax and enjoy the freedom of exploring Giethoorn together.
To help you find your way, you’ll receive access to a handy app with several boating routes to choose from. Pick the route that suits you, follow it on your phone and discover Giethoorn beyond its busiest canals. Your driver will also share local tips before you arrive.
Once you’re back on land, continue exploring with our Hidden Gems Walking Route. Follow scenic paths, find quieter corners and see more of the village on foot. You’ll have free time to enjoy lunch by the water, browse the shops or simply linger wherever you like. You’ll also receive a 10% discount at local Restaurants.
Before returning to Amsterdam, stop at the Henri Willig Cheese Farm for a tasting of Dutch cheeses and an exclusive discount on purchases.
