Inaudible guide and audio guide not up to par (requires a telephone per person) Lots of noise in the boat. Not great

Very good tour, incredible landscape, comfortable transportation. The only problem is the website to follow the route with the guide: the audio kept stopping. Furthermore, I bought a headset on site, but the headset didn't work. So I really recommend taking the headset you already use on your cell phone, maybe it will work.

I expected to look at more places, such as Anne Frank's house which is mentioned in the description but which we didn't see. Overall it was a nice activity.

The time schedule can be fine-tuned. The lake tour takes a long time. When we returned to Giethoorn, most of the shops were closed and we couldn't take a good stroll.
