Bike, Boat and Flamingos

This is our third bike and boat tour. As always we found excellent value and adventure. This was a small group of around 21 people. We much prefer the small groups even though the cabins are smaller. There is plenty of space on deck and inside for leisure activities. We must say that the crew was outstanding. Our guide, Hein, was very funny as well as knowledgeable about the area. He was always very positive and supportive despite some terrible weather. We experienced tremendous winds and some rain. He definitely made our rides memorable. Sara, our chef, was amazing. Every meal was so interesting and delicious. Nothing was ever left on our plates. She was creative and artistic and charming. Rafael, our crew, was the best. He was always available to help with any issue. He was so friendly. We’ve never met a friendlier crew member. They’re usually just too busy to socialize, but Rafael always made himself available. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to know our captain-totally our fault as we don’t speak French. But the entire crew was wonderful. It didn’t hurt that this group of passengers was great; Safe bike riders, prompt and very sociable. We will definitely choose another bike and boat/barge for our next holiday. We’re thinking about Italy next.
