Itinerary

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 the 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. Get your tickets now and discover this enchanting village! As most of Giethoorn is only accessible by boat, it has become famous for being a village without roads. It borders the Weerribben-Wieden National Park, which is the largest fen in north western Europe. During the trip, you'll see the beautiful waterways and old farmhouses that line their banks and experience the peace, tranquillity, and natural beauty of this magical place. You will also have free time to explore this fairy-tale village without roads on your own and take pictures. Besides its fame as a village without roads, Giethoorn village is also known for its excellent restaurants where you'll be able to eat some lunch (not included).
