Saker att göra i Giethoorn

Giethoorn är ett måste på sommaren. Lucas var informativ men ändå koncis. Båtturen varar en timme och resten av resplanen är fri tid vilket är perfekt.

Redemption of ticket at the tour agency was easy and hassle free. The tour bus was just one level above the ticket office. The tour departed on time and was well organised. Highly recommended to take the tour as Giethoorn is a pretty place.

Lovely experience. Our guide Surui was also professional and affable. He was punctual, made adjustments for us so we can do the boat ride before the rain and also made sure he ordered our lunch in advance with the restaurant. learned alot from him regarding the windmills as well as the beautiful houses at Giethoorn.

En 10/10-upplevelse, från en kvinnlig ensamresenär! Det må vara dyrare än andra alternativ, men det är värt varenda krona. Vi var bara en liten grupp (8 personer) och guiden (Reinier) tog hand om oss från början till slut, från att förbereda vattenflaskor, hämta oss direkt från hotellet, till att ordna powerbank, wifi och allt annat! Han såg till att vi åkte tillräckligt tidigt för att undvika folkmassorna och få bra bilder (han känner till de bästa platserna för foton). Jämfört med en stor busstur är detta en skräddarsydd tur för mindre grupper för att förstå platsernas historia, och denna tur inkluderar det extra Lego House i Zandaam och viktigast av allt Giethoorn, som är ett MÅSTE att besöka eftersom det är så charmigt. Jag kan inte nog rekommendera denna tur och reseguiden Reinier!

Our tour guide from K7 Travel was Surui. It was a small group of 8 people, picked up and dropped off in a 9-seater van. The guide sends a text message the day before to remind you of the meeting spot and time, and arrives at the meeting place about 5 minutes early, so there is no need to arrive too early (the area around the meeting point is open with no shelter from rain or sun). The only regret was that it rained all day, but the guide was very thoughtful and prepared an umbrella for everyone in advance. After arriving at the Zaanse Schans, the guide led us on a walk, flexibly adjusting the tour pace based on the weather and other conditions, while sharing interesting history and information about the Netherlands and the various sights along the way. After touring the cheese factory and wooden clog factory together, we had about an hour and a half of free time. Next, we headed to Giethoorn, where we had a group lunch first. There were two options for lunch: Chinese food (beef noodles or fried rice) or a Dutch meal. After eating, we all went on a boat tour, which lasted about half an hour. Following the boat tour, we had free time—nearly 2 hours of it. As I recall, we left Giethoorn at 4:00 PM and were back in downtown Amsterdam by 5:30 PM. Since both of these attractions are somewhat far from the city center and traveling there independently is actually quite inconvenient, I feel that joining a guided tour like this offers great value for the money, with plenty of free time allotted. I highly recommend it for travelers who want some free roaming time without the hassle of dealing with transportation on their own.

Despite the nationwide strike and rainy weather, the tour went smoothly overall. Our meeting time was supposed to be 9:30am, but the bus arrived around 10am. As we booked a private tour, I do feel it would be better if the tour duration could be extended accordingly when the delay is caused by circumstances beyond the customer's control. The 30-minute delay meant we had less time for the boating experience, which was one of the main reasons we booked the private tour. That said, the tour guide was very nice and helpful, especially when teaching us how to operate the boat. We still managed to explore Giethoorn, take some beautiful photos and enjoy the experience despite the weather. Overall, still a pleasant trip!

Leidse is full of positive energy and love for engaging his customers! brings in extra context to every landmark making the day trip so worthwhile. I enjoyed myself very much! thank you

It was a nice and enjoyable trip, the tour guide which cover everything as driver and he explained very well all the places visited. recommended for those new to Netherlands since the tour taken care very well from end to end by the tour guide name is Eric.
