Giethoorn Canals & Windmills: Quintessential Dutch Escape

Had a great time visiting the windmills and the Geithorn village which as told is the 4 th most beautiful village in the world despite the weather as it was windy , cold with spurts of rains. Kudos to Jay who was a fantastic tour host who kept everyone engaged with his witty humour and good history knowledge of the country and great tips to make your holiday a memorable one. He even stopped the bus to get all of us to taste fresh organic apples from a local place which definitely tasted better

Jay is a very wonderful tour guide, we enjoyed very much with his explanation about the history and culture , gained so much knowledge about Netherlands and Amsterdam

Very good experience about the Boating and village round and culture.Also provide the cookies and Apple.

It was a wonderful experience. Our tour guide even called us a few minutes before the bus leaves to see if we could make it or not.. Somebody got sick on the bus on our way back and he gave his full attention

We had an amazing time. Our guide was friendly and did everything to give us the best experience. Definitely the highlight of our trip

An Amazing Experience with Abrahim and Nicole! Our tour with Abrahim and Nicole was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and full of thoughtful touches. They even made a special stop at a local farmers market so we could pick up fresh apples and some delicious waffle cookies—such a sweet surprise! Abrahim is truly an amazing tour guide. His commentary was both informative and hilarious—never boring for a second. He kept us engaged the whole time with his great energy and sense of humor. We’ve been on other tours before, but none as entertaining and enjoyable as this one. Nicole, our driver, was spectacular. She drove so smoothly and confidently that we actually managed to take a relaxing nap on the way back—something that rarely happens on tours! We loved every minute and highly recommend this experience. Thank you, Abrahim and Nicole, for making our day so special!

Our tour guide, Jay, was really outstanding. He shared so much interesting knowledge about the history and culture of these special places, and he had some good jokes! The tour was a nice balance of organized activity and free time so you can wander around on your own. Do be aware that it's about a 1.5 hours drive each way to and from Giethoorn.

Ibrahim was a great guide who has a wealth of knowledge and lots of energy. The tour was a great pace and gave us plenty of time to explore each stop.

Ibrahim Was brilliant. I enjoyed the overall trip. However, i thought we dint have to spend so much time in Geithoorn.

A trip to a traditional windmill and the charming village of Giethoorn in the Netherlands is a wonderful experience. Visiting a windmill lets you see Dutch history and engineering up close, while Giethoorn’s canals, thatched cottages, and tranquil boat rides offer a peaceful escape from busy city life. Exploring the local cafes, taking a boat tour, and walking among the picturesque scenery make this trip truly memorable. Both destinations give you a deep appreciation for Dutch culture and natural beauty.
