Very very disappointing - Giethoorn is a very quaint village that is overrun by far too many tourists. The crowds on the footpaths, in the restaurants, and especially in the canals where it was bow to stern boat traffic was particularly disappointing. To add insult to injury, the tour company, Cherry Tours, committed the unforgivable blunder of designating their meeting/pickup spot exactly where five thousand runners were marshaling for a marathon. The one bright spot was a tour guide, Amy, who was knowledgeable, friendly and informative.Giethoorn is a lovely village until the tourist invaders show up.
