1-Hour Canal Cruise with Local Skipper, Drink & Free Parking｜Netherlands

Discover Giethoorn's village canals and the open waters of Lake Bovenwijde on a relaxed 1-hour cruise aboard our open electric boat. Unlike traditional canal boats with rows of wooden benches, ours is designed with round seating around tables, ideal for couples, families, and small groups who want to sit together, chat, and enjoy the views in comfort.

Your captain shares the stories behind every bridge and thatched roof, and takes you past Kraggenhuis Island as you sail across Lake Bovenwijde, a route most cruises in Giethoorn don't cover.

You can choose from various food and drink packages. Coffee or tea, cake, snack platters, or a full picnic basket can be added to your booking if you'd like to make it a leisurely trip on the water.

The boat has a fixed roof with windows that close for rain, so the cruise runs in any weather. Heating keeps things comfortable on cooler days.

Flexible drop-off: choose where to step off along the canal, saving you the walk back from the main car park to the village center.

Free parking and toilets on site, free cancellation up to 24 hours in advance.
