It was super easy and great to ride! - We scan the QR code next to the boats and got an email with clear intsructions, that was super easy and user friendly. We easily manage to get on the boat by ourselves by only following the intsruction on the email. We did not use the map and lost, but we could easily reach out the people and had live support. I definetely recommend this company and will try again whenver I been in Giethon!

Super - Nice experience. On the way we had a little problem, engine stopped. Called, we were well helped and received good instructions, then we could enjoy our cruise again.

Great experience in Giethoorn - It was a fantastic experience! We rented a spacious electric boat with soft pillows and backrests, perfect for our group.

Cast horn from the water - Was very cozy. First time in a whisper boat makes it challenging. Have had a wonderful time. The route has guided throughout Giethoorn. 2 hours was more than enough time to see everything.

Together in a whisper boat. - With my girlfriend I made a wonderful trip in the whisper boat ear 4 people in the cozy Giethoorn and on the lake. We enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and drove the boat with ease. It's nice to have a normal steering wheel in it. Unfortunately a sock in the screw, so the pace of sailing very slow. We didn't get any extra costs, because we were back too late. That was unforeseen. The staff is friendly and helpful. This is a must! Tip: lunch on the island is nice and relaxed.

Bad - There was little charge. So we could barely sail. I told the employees. But all he said was yes. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Did not receive the same boat shown on TripAdvisor — felt scammed - I paid 178 for this boat ride, but it was not the same covered boat shown on TripAdvisor. Instead, I was given a small open boat. I later checked the price for that type of boat for an hour, and it was only €60. The price difference is significant, and I felt overcharged. I would not recommend this experience.
