We were greatly thrilled to cycle through such variety of landscapes and villages/cities with our very knowledgeable guides Wil and Esther. We learned a lot about the history, architecture and infrastructure of the Netherlands. Hats of to all the other staff, the chef and Monique especially.
It's lovely to know you appreciated the history, architecture, and infrastructure insights. Thank you for recognizing our staff, the chef, and Monique. We look forward to your next visit for more exciting journeys! Best regards, Boat Bike Tours

The crew was all exceptional, from hostess Monique, who kept all things tip-top, to Gert the chef with a great variety of good tasting foods, to our tour guides, Wil and Ester. They shared their knowledge of the areas we travels to make the journey more interesting. Seeing a different culture was very enjoyable. Our room was comfortable.
We're pleased that you liked our crew, including Monique, Gert, Wil, and Ester, who contributed to a wonderful journey with their knowledge and service. Exploring a different culture and enjoying a comfortable room is what we aim for.

Velosophie - Monique
Velosophie – cycle holiday was already for the second time with a groupe of 14 people on the Friesland-Tour on the Lena Maria boat. We have had a very windy week. The crew around the skipper Eelke was very efficient. So the tour was proposed they other way around, so that we could go to the island of Terschelling, which is absolutely worth to go there. Time on the boat, time on the bicycle, with at the end of the day a good meal an a good bed. Thanks a lot for this week. Monique
Thank you for sharing your experienceon the Friesland-Tour aboard the Lena Maria boat. It's wonderful to hear that the crew, led by Skipper Eelke, made the tour efficient and adapted to the challenging weather conditions. Exploring Terschelling and enjoying time on the boat and bicycle with good meals and restful nights sounds like a fantastic week. Best regards, Boat Bike Tours
Graham
The fantastic crew and the well-appointed boat, the Lena Maria, made all the difference during a pretty wet week. Routes were reorganised, clothes dried, lots of litte nibbles and other touches and wonderful food.
We're glad that you still had a special experience with a fantastic crew and the well-appointed boat, the Lena Maria, during a wet week. Your positive feedback about the reorganized routes, thoughtful touches, and wonderful food is much appreciated. Thank you! Best regards, Boat Bike Tours

We didn’t know what to expect. What we had was a great trip to Friesland. Lena Maria had large cabins, where we were very comfortable all week. Up top, places where you can gather for meals, and meet passengers from around the world. The unusual weather (rain) had Captain Eelke adjust to our starting location, and ride maps, daily. The GPS app was accurate and easy. Food was great, and as a vegetarian, it was some of the best I’ve had! Ample snacks and desserts made sure we were ready to go riding, every day. If you’ve never seen a boat, sail through a cornfield, while riding a bike past a windmill, well…. here’s your chance. Thankyou Eelke, Monique, Reuben, and Glenn.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Your positive feedback is very much appreciated. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure with us! Best regards, Boat Bike Tours

Captain Conny, Chef Eva and their efficient crew were excellent. They ran the most excellent ship, and also were so personable. It was easy to ask for needed items or services; we knew that the ship and kitchen are in expert hands!
We are happy that you liked your tour with us. Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Best regards, Boat Bike Tours

Pros: Fantastic Food, very comfortable rooms, great locations and very knowledgeable guide “Marcel”. Cons: Only one guide for 23 riders promised 2. One paying guest had to do this role, too many rigid dining rules as to sitting etc, no stopping for photos when riding.
Hi Kim, Thank you for your feedback on the Premium Amsterdam to Bruges - Barge Bike tour. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the fantastic food, comfortable rooms, great locations, and found the guide, Marcel, to be knowledgeable. We apologize for the shortage of guides during your trip, which resulted in only one guide instead of the promised two. We understand that this impacted the experience for both the guests and the individual who had to assume additional responsibilities. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the rigid dining rules regarding seating arrangements. We will review these rules to ensure a more flexible and enjoyable dining experience for our guests. We understand your desire for photo stops during the rides, and we apologize if this was not adequately accommodated during your tour. We will consider this feedback to improve our tour experience. Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention.

This is my third trip with Boat Bike Tours, and all have been exemplary. On this most-recent trip, all went well. Every member of the staff were wonderful, the captain, first mate, chef, housekeeper, and guide. The barge was fine and th cuisine was excellent. The rooms were clean and well kept. Because I am an experienced cyclist, I prefer to self-guide using Ride With GPS, which worked just fine. Using the Ship Finder app allowed me to track the barge and meet it easily.

I will talk about the trip itself and the very careful care the crew takes to make our experience over and above our expectation. The crew of 5 gets introduced and right away, you realize you can ask any of them for information. Elke the captain, Monique the hostess, everyone was wonderful. They really helped create a personal experience for each. The towns and countryside we biked through, just gorgeous. Our guide Marcel would stop at pertinent monuments and towns to augment our understanding of history and the importance of certain towns. The travel through historically wonderful small towns is juxtaposed to the larger cities of Antwerp Ghent and Bruges. And countryside, flowers, farms, canals wind mills in between. And whenever someone on the trip needed extra care, they were immediate in their responses. I would be remiss not to mention the gastronomic gourmet meals Chef prepared. Unbelievable.
Thank you for your amazing review! We're thrilled that the crew provided careful care and exceeded your expectations, making your experience truly exceptional. We're glad that Marcel, our guide, enriched your understanding of history through stops at pertinent monuments and towns. Lastly, we're delighted to hear that our chef prepared unbelievable gastronomic gourmet meals. Thank you for choosing us, and we can't wait to welcome you back for more extraordinary experiences! Warm regards, Julia from Boat Bike Tours
