If you're travelling to the [Netherlands](http://anydoko.com/destinations/the-netherlands/), you should definitely visit the picturesque water village of Giethoorn, more commonly known as the 'Venice of the North,' due to its scenic canals and bridges. Similar to [Venice](http://anydoko.com/24-hours-in-venice/) you can join a tour boat or rent a private boat with a captain to explore the canals. However if you want to navigate the narrow waterways at your own pace, you can simply rent out a small electrical boat to cruise to best parts of town and to enjoy some delicious [Dutch snacks](http://anydoko.com/dutch-snacks/) at a wide range of restaurants and cafes. Join us as we discover the small town charm of Giethoorn. It's all here in our latest of episode of [Shorts,](http://anydoko.com/shows/shorts/) where we discover the best parts of the world in bite size format.
