Only by staying overnight can you take a leisurely stroll in the early morning and truly experience the beauty of Giethoorn.

Visiting this place is like entering another dimension among floating streets, little houses with thatched roofs and canals with colorful boats.

A lovely place to relax and stroll. You don't necessarily need to take a boat trip to enjoy it. The church there isn't particularly spectacular or beautiful. There was also a nice snack bar near the church with reasonable prices. If you're in the area and appreciate a rural atmosphere with canals, it's definitely worth a visit.

You should definitely rent a boat and drive it yourself to enjoy this place.

The boat is very easy to handle, the introduction is good, and the canal trip is beautiful. However, it would be a disaster if it weren't for the Indian and Chinese tourists who constantly stop to take photos. This makes it impossible to get through, and the trip takes much longer than planned. The boat operator is happy about this because he charges by the hour.

We had reserved for 4:30, and at 5:00 I was still standing there waiting while the staff sat there arrogantly insulting us. The staff said we needed a wristband. Nowhere on the website did it state that I required one. When I returned, we were spoken to as if it were our fault. The waitress in the café was also very arrogant and tired; the scheduling is very poor in general. Never again!

Good Village must visit

The place is very beautiful and enjoyable. Pay attention to the time of the last bus leaving the city, and it's best to bring your own food as there are few restaurants and the food isn't very good.

Very quaint and touristy. A must see in the area for the houses on islands and boats being their method of travel. No cars. Boat hire at £30 is good for the experience.
