What we like most about Giethoorn is that there are no cars or roads here; tourists leave them out of the village and have to travel by water or on foot over the lovely wooden bridges. We covered a special post on Giethoorn a while back.
This “list” was gathered for inspiration purposes. It is not a “top”; each village has its unique features and each experience is unique. If you traveled in any of them, or if you know other beautiful villages in the Netherlands for the wandering traveler , please leave a comment below; we would be happy to get in touch and add them to the post. Happy summer ahead !
