Fabulous bike tour with an experienced and knowledgeable leader. Delicious breakfast, lunch and dinners by the chef who always delivers a short presentation on what the food was and how it relates to The Netherlands. Great crew who worked to make everything easy, pleasant and safe. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Super durchorganisiert, kompetente und nette Reiseleitung. Das Schiff gemütlich, das Essen sehr lecker. Wir fühlten uns wie in einer grossen, liebenswerten Familie. Die Radtouren waren mit interessanten Stops durchsetzt, es wurde nicht langweilig. Die abendlichen Stadtspaziergänge mit der Reiseleitung waren ein tolles Extra.

Superb guides and crew who worked together to make sure everyone could have their very best time. The boat was extremely well equipped with a comfortable lounge, lovely hot showers and a well stocked bar. The food was excellent and abundant and food preferences were taken fully into consideration. My vegetarian options being as delicious as the other options. Providing a lunch box each morning for us to make our own packed lunch from the breakfast buffet, and bar snacks for our post cycle return to the boat meant nobody had to go hungry. Everything was super clean. The trips and interspersed refreshment stops were well thought out and meant that inexperienced cyclists like me were not daunted by the distances. The evening city tours were interesting and the guides were knowledgeable and eager to tell us about their country. Flexibility was the key word for the week and when the weather was too windy to cycle or bridges stopped us going where we needed to the guides were quick to replan. This meant we enjoyed watching a cheese auction in addition to the planned excursions. I cannot speak more highly of my experience and have sent the details to many of my work mates. One piece of advice, if you have to ask yourself “Can I do this on a normal bike or would an e-bike be better?” …then hire an e-bike, the wind can be strong and a flat ride can feel like going up a hill on occasions.

A fantastic trip with Fleur, where you can see Holland from all sides and wonderful to cycle along the canals and enjoy nature and wildlife. Good guide, good bikes and good stay on board. Good food but could wish for more vegetables. Definitely a trip I would recommend.

Everything was well planned and the crew worked hard everyday to make the itinerary perfect. Food was great, lodging was perfect with comfortable beds, biking trips were planned well to fit the group. Tulips, the boat, and the bicycling…our vacation was wonderful!

Happiness is a trip on the Zwaantje. The crew and boat makes it special and exciting in every way. They take care of everything! The bikes are well maintained as is the boat. The food is delicious and plentiful. All of the rides were well paced and balanced with information about the sights and history and culture of the Dutch people. All of the crew had a delightful sense of humor and were responsive to my every need.I am a neophyte on a e-bike so I appreciated all the extra attention. The captain truly cares about each and every passenger and his amazing crew. The result is a fantastic experience that I will never forget.

Our daily tour leaders on The Fleur, Hester and Anna were considerate pace-setters. On board, they and all the crew kept us well fed and well entertained with an unexpected concert and nightly reviews of the next days itineraries. The ride, of course, was fabulous, as were the new friends we made on the tour.

Our guide Arnold was fabulous. He made sure we were safe on all the bike rides. There were several interesting stops on each day such as a Gouda farm cheese dairy farm and the world’s largest flower auction
