What to expect

Embark on an adventure from a central meeting point in lively Amsterdam, where you'll meet your guide/driver. Buckle up for a comfortable ride in a luxurious, air-conditioned minivan, cruising through the iconic Dutch 'polder' landscape - a reclaimed wonderland that was once part of the sea until the 1950s, now yours to explore.

Get ready to be enchanted by Giethoorn, hailed as one of the Netherlands' most picturesque villages and fondly dubbed the Dutch Venice. Just like its Italian counterpart, Giethoorn's charm lies in its myriad canals, where the only modes of transport are by boat or on foot. No cars are allowed in this historic old town, which boasts a history dating back to the Middle Ages.

As you arrive, treat your taste buds to a slice of heavenly apple pie paired with a steaming hot beverage. Then, buckle up for a guided cruise through the captivating canals of Giethoorn. Post-cruise, savor the flavors of a traditional Dutch lunch known as a '12-uurtje.' With some free time on your hands, explore the town at your own pace, soaking in its unique atmosphere before returning to the vibrant heart of Amsterdam. Get ready for a day of discovery, charm, and indulgence.
