Really great cycling holiday. Would book with Boat and Bike Tours again.

The ship had a comfortable lounge and dining room- no frills, but just what was needed; a place to rest and relax after a day out and about exploring. Our room had lots of storage space. The crew worked hard and were always helpful and friendly. We appreciated that we were encouraged to pack a lunch each morning, this created opportunities for picnics along our routes and kept the costs down.

Went on a 5 night bike and barge with some family and friends in April through Holland. The views from our bikes were gorgeous, the rooms on the ship were clean and spacious, the dinners were delicious. I would definitely go on another trip!

Our second Boat and Bike Tour. We booked this tour to celebrate our 35th wedding and 36th meeting anniversary. As we approached the Boat, we recognized Albert, our sailor from our Bruges to Amsterdam tour of September 2022, and Michael, our chef from the same tour. Our guides, Hilde and Rikko were awesome as was the rest of the crew. They made us feel special. We met people from all over and made friends with some, we hope to see again. We’ve made reservations for 2024 and can’t wait.

We loved it all pretty much. Food, great. Accommodations, great. Personnel, great. We had an 18 month old with us. We could have really used a high chair, that would have made dinner much nicer.

Boat and food were great. The guides were inexperienced. Had to turn around multiple times and did not communicate trip plans and bathroom stops.

Great guides, tasty food and comfortable berths on board all contributed to a wonderful experience cycling through this beautiful countryside.

The barge, with Chef Steffi, was perfect in everyway. Comfortable beds, great food, wonderful crew, we enjoyed every minute we spent on the water with them. I even enjoyed my time on the barge after not being able to cycle after hurting my shoulder while cycling. I feel that it should be mentioned in your trip description that there is quite a lot of city cycling and that the native cyclists and drivers are quite aggressive when on the paths and roads. Most of the people on this excursion were from either the U.S. or Canada and we all agreed that it was much more mentally exhausting than expected because of how we had to share narrow trails and roads with people going much faster than our group. I fell after the second day cycling and was not physically able to ride after that. Even though I cycle in Oregon I found I was very unprepared for biking in Holland.

The dinner room is not very confirtable but all very good

Excellent guide Michiel, accomodation and experience.
