We had a great trip, the boat staff and facilities were exceptional. They had to make some changes on the fly as water levels were low and there were high temperatures so original bike options needed to be modified. Staff adjusted to make the trip interesting. The food was amazing and offered me the vegetarian options that I requested.
Hi Nancy, Thank you very much for your positive review. How nice to hear that you had such a good time along the Danube. I look forward to welcoming you back on one of our trips in the future. Warm regards, Romy

Very nice trip, great guides. The only complaint that I have is that some more time should be set aside for touring at least some of the towns we went through, for shopping, cafes, etc…
Hi Bruce, Thank you very much for your review and your feedback! I will pass on your feedback to our product developers. Warm regards, Romy

Our experience with Boat Bike Tours was even better than imagined and something we hope to have the pleasure of enjoying again, someday. The crew and guides add value to the experience and everything was comfortable, fun, and worthwhile.

We spent a week aboard the barge Sarah along with 18 cyclists, the youngest 50?, the oldest 80 plus, from USA, Canada, Australia, & Germany, and England. The conditions were ideal to enjoy socialising on deck or ashore after mooring up. Swimming off the boat felt very refreshing after a ride in the hot weather. The en-suite cabins are tiny so we didn’t spend much time there. All substantial breakfast and evening meals were served aboard by the excellent chef and crew of four. We made our own packed lunch. The comprehensive cycle path network is often shaded by long avenues of trees, and surfaced in either concrete, paved or tarmac, away from motor traffic roads. You do have to watch out for cyclists coming fast in either direction. With our energetic and attentive leader to guide us at the head of the line we cycled 40k plus most days. Our tour started and finished in Amsterdam and we moored up in Arnhem, Doesburg, Deventer, Kampen, Spakenburg (Hanseatic cities) which we explored on foot. Each evening after dinner we had a brief tour of a town together before discovering a bar (even a music festival) for further refreshment. Although the watery landscape is flat, the scenery constantly changes; the farming and land use, architecture, and cycling/transport infrastructure all provide a fascinating unfolding panorama (or cyclorama!) Discovering and embracing the Dutch cycling culture is a constant pleasure. More time for photos and selective sightseeing would be appreciated. Also, historical and cultural information combined with an explanation about the route, towns and areas we visited would be worth providing in addition to the tour notes.
Hi Stephen, Thank you very much for your detailed review. We really enjoy reading that you had a great journey aboard the Sarah. Super nice that you took the time to write down your experience. We learn from your feedback. Maybe we can add some more culture to our Hanseatic route trip. We hole to see you back on board next year. Warm regards, Romy

Boat/bike tours always give a lot of bang for your buck. They are well organized with caring leaders. Each daily ride not only delivers manageable distances, but includes interesting historical stops, local industry (cheese farm, local beer brewery, or quaint food stops). The onboard staff tend to our daily needs, a caring gourmet chef and space on board to mingle and enjoy our resting place each night always says, welcome!!! The use of bikes, either hybrids or e-bikes are well maintained and easy to ride. Included are bells and panhandlers to stow gear, clothing and food. This was my second trip with them and it did not disappoint. The knowledgeable guides make this a tour and one leaves with a level of fitness and understanding of the area. Can’t wait for signing up for a future trip.
We really enjoy reading that you had a nice time aboard the Zwaantje Thank you very much that you took the time to write down your experience. Warm regards, Romy

Fantastic trip. The boat crew and guide were friendly, accommodating, and catered to my group. My family raved about the Southern Holland tour. The routes were great. Leisurely cycling through the farms, villages, towns, along beautiful bike paths. We would do another tour with this company in a heartbeat.

I very much enjoyed my recent vacation with boat and bike tours in France. The landscape was stunning, the boat was clean and well kept. The boat staff were friendly and helpful. The food was very good especially the fresh fish meal. The bike tours were challenging for me but I enjoyed the experience. The weather was very hot, but there was areas on the boat to escape the heat when needed. There were always plenty of cold beverages available. I very much enjoyed sampling the local wines. Thank you

The ship crew did an amazing job of pampering us, and the bicycling experience was great. The boat was in great shape.
