I really liked our Amsterdam to Bruges bike tour on the Maniifique III. The staff was exceptional and the service impeccable. I really liked the spacious deluxe cabin we were in. The beds were very comfortable and it had all the amenities we needed except for possibly three or four more hangers in the closet. The food and drink were wonderful. My wife has a very special diet she needs to be on, and the chef accommodated her needs very well. The bike rides were fun but perhaps a little too long for some of my fellow travelers. The tours in the evening were also a little too long for my liking. I would have liked to have gone to a pub instead of a tour on the evenings I was worn out from biking, but no pub suggestions were offered. I think it would have been nice to offer pub suggestions and perhaps directions back to the boat. In summary, it’s hard to make 40 people all content, but Boat Bike Tours really did there best to do so.

The best part of the trip is the hospitality, service, and attention to detail of the Zwaantje Captain and Crew and the Tour Guides. All are seasoned professionals and experts in their respective fields.

Great experience.best holiday I’ve had.food was fantastic and accomodation was perfect for what we needed.tour guides were there to ask any questions and were very helpful.ebikes we had were smooth and really good to ride.if anything can be improved maybe having a small map for some of the attractions to see or meeting places with info such as best place to park bike etc.timing is important as have to return to ship late afternoon so need to think carefully about how much time to spend along the route.have booked the next one

Excellent guide, well organised set-up, Generous meals and responsive to guest feedback. Our most positive memories are of the cycling through the roads of country France, enjoying the spring flowers and weather.

The bike guides were great, especially Jeroen who well beyond the wildest expectations. Ship crew were very good. House wine could do with an upgrade – poor. The ship should have a drying room for wet gear/raincoats. Food was plentiful but meals need more vegetables/ greens/ salad

This tour was made great by the staff on board our boat and the fabulous guides that worked so hard to make our trip a success. The boat is small but intimate vs cramped. The captain, Martin, was experienced, fun and accommodating. The chef, Frank, was fabulous and made a special effort to prepare a great dessert plate to help celebrate my birthday, which I really appreciated. The guides went above and beyond, especially Thomas, and made us all feel comfortable.

You guys did a great job, bicycles we’re very good, and performed excellent. The staff was extremely helpful and polite. Accommodations We’re very clean and neat. The only negative would be, I Think you should charge more if you have to, to improve the food at dinner. But don’t get me wrong, I still enjoyed Our trip. Thank you BBT

Our guides were fantastic – Ana was incredibly knowledgeable about Croatian history and geology, and so upbeat and fun. The rides were scenic and interesting (except for occasional rain, but not their fault). City walk tours (by Ana) were excellent. The boat (Linda) accommodations were comfortable enough but a bit spartan. My only disappointment was the food. While tasty and plentiful, it was not close to the fabulous gourmet dinners I remember from my previous Boat Bike tour.

The guides were fantastic, sharing info about their country, helping us with our equipment, encouraging us, and pacing the trip for our group. All of the boat staff, the cooks, captain, and crew were wonderful. The food…marvelous and way too plentiful! Rocco, our bartender, server extraordinaire was superb, taking care of every request from Morning coffee to late nightcaps. Great showers, rooms, and nice space to hang out both inside, on the covered veranda, and on the top deck.

We had excellent, efficient service from all staff all week. The breakfasts were delicious and the choice of dinners were beyond expectations. The recommendations for the self-guided biking were very useful.
