5.00Anzi was an amazing guide in Giethoorn! He got us on the canals early, before the crowds, and even took us to quiet spots the big tours don’t visit. It was absolutely breathtaking and so peaceful. If you’re thinking about a large group tour, skip it. A smaller tour with Anzi is 100% the way to go. Highly recommend!
The perfect day!

5.00Don’t bother with going on your own or hiring a big bus tour, just book this one. Perfectly timed day with a peaceful boat tour and plenty of time to walk around and explore on our own and have lunch. Took the hassle and stress out of everything. Thank you, Anzi!
Best option to go with smaller group

5.00Giethoorn was on our bucket list of places to visit, and it totally lived up to the hype. Our guide Anzi made everything so much more special. He knew the inside tricks to avoid the crowds, and even during the high tourist season in August, we almost had Giethoorn to ourselves with very few tourists. We cannot recommend this activity and Anzi highly enough.
Excellent guide, relaxing trip avoiding crowds later in the day. Good flexibility to explore on our own pace.

5.00Anza, our guide, was kind, patient, and very informative. The whole day was relaxing in a quaint village. It included a boat ride, and Anza timed it to avoid the worst of the crowds.
It was an excellent trip,...

5.00Over the top tour! Everything was fabulous, and at a great, relaxed pace. We were on a 2 week Rhine River Cruise which started in Amsterdam, and we both voted that this was the BEST day of the entire river cruise. Anzi of OuYi Travel was happy we picked the "small boats," to cruise the canals, as he was able to take us down canals only he knew, and out into the lake. So fun! I loved the fact that the "schedule for the day," was NOT overly packed. Anzi even stayed longer with us. On the drive to Giethoorne, he took us on backroads up so we could see the country side of the Netherlands. I would take this tour 100 times over and it was my BEST memory of 14 days in Europe! DO IT!!!
