Interactive game while boating in Giethoorn

An interactive game can be played during a boat trip, turning boating and a game into one activity. You follow a sailing route and receive questions, tasks, puzzles and Giethoorn facts on your phone along the way.

While you sail through Giethoorn, you try together to collect as many right answers and points as possible. The interactive game can be combined with different boats, depending on the chosen programme and the rental options available.

Playing an escape box in Giethoorn

An escape box brings the principle of an escape room to your own table. You get a box with different puzzles and tasks, without being locked in a room.

One example is the escape box Het Verdwenen Goud (The Missing Gold). It is played in teams of up to 6 people. Together you try to follow the storyline and solve the different puzzles and tasks.

The advantage of an escape box is that you can stay in one place. That makes this activity easy to combine with eating and drinking, for example. It is also an alternative if you would like an escape experience but are not looking for a traditional escape room.
