From Amsterdam: Visit Giethoorn, Urk & Hattem

Visit a white lighthouse and walk from bridge to bridge

Get ready for an enchanting excursion to the delightful fishing hamlet of Urk! The village's iconic white lighthouse and quaint seaside church, the oldest structure in town, await the eager eyes of explorers. Pay respects at a poignant monument commemorating fishermen who embarked on journeys but never returned. Next, it's off to Overijssel province, home to Giethoorn, the Venice of the North! This extraordinary hamlet is a labyrinth of waterways, bridges, and stunning farmhouses. "Picturesque" doesn't even begin to cover it. Visitors are spoilt for choice here; hop aboard a leisurely cruise, captain your own boat, or meander from bridge to bridge in this serene water village. The grand finale comes in the form of Hattem, an 800-year-old town in the province of Gelderland, and one of the Netherlands' best-kept secrets. Marvel at magnificent monuments such as the "Dijkpoort", the town's ancient medieval entrance gate. Don't wait, book your ticket now and embark on a journey of discovery, charm, and beauty!
