This was a great trip. The barge was clean and reasonably updated. The dinner food was very nice and breakfast buffet was quite extensive. I would suggest to extend breakfast until 9am if possible. It’s nice to have the option to sleep in after long bike rides. I was glad to have reserved the e-bike as there were hilly and windy days. The daily briefings about the next day’s ride were detailed as were the path guidelines. Each days ride was varied enough, forests, fields, canals, dams and of course the beautiful Hansa towns we visited daily. The staff was wonderful, polite, friendly and helpful. I totally enjoyed this and have already recommended it to friends. I’m thinking about next year already. Thank you

Great holiday with great staff, great food, great boat, great routes, great guides what more could you ask.

The Hansa Highlights was my first Boat Bike trip and it will definitely not be my last. Everything on board the Magnifique II from the accommodations, the crew, the food, the guides and bikes exceeded my expectations. Having worked in the private yacht industry I understand how much effort is made by the entire crew to make a charter work seamlessly. Kudos to all. See you in 2024! Grazie mille, Margaret

This was a fantastic trip that I WILL be repeating. The trip exceeded my expectations in every way. • The food was delicious • The staff was friendly, professional, and helpful • The rural scenery was beautiful and most towns were scenic • Rental bikes were well maintained • The cabin was comfortable and efficiently laid out I was on the Magnifique II for the Hanseatic Cities tour. I chose this trip after discussing with the office staff what kind of trip I was looking for (smaller cites or rural areas). AND I thought that the quality of service and friendliness received via phone and email before the trip could not be exceeded. I was wrong: the staff on the boat provided even better service and went out of the way to make this a pleasant trip.

We’ve done two Boat/Bike tours. They manage to create a cordial atmosphere on board and out biking such that everyone feels connected. The route this year on the Hansa cities tour was super well planned and brought us through forests and fields we would never have found ourselves. Life aboard the Magnifique 2 was, well, magnifique! Gourmet food; extra spacious and comfortable cabins.. in short, a terrific trip!

A super holiday, everything was well organised. The accommodation and food on the boat was excellent as was all the staff. Would certainly recommend this company.

The crew combination superb! Hanseatic Tour 5/25-6/1. Magnifique II. Capt. Michael, Asst. Thomas, Guides Andre and Edith, Hostesses Alexandra and Jolie, and most accommodating and capable chef Gerhart all combined to provided a first rate and memorable experience. Looking forward to the next adventure!

We enjoyed very much! Everything was perfect! Will do it again for sure!

We went on the Hansa Highlights tour and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The tour was well organized with options for shorter or longer rides. The staff is courteous and friendly and makes the boating experience enjoyable and informative. Food was delicious and plentiful. Would definitely recommend.

It was a wonderful experience. The boat was in great shape. Our room was excellent. The crew was allways fun. Good food and drinks. The bikes: could use a tune up and air in the tires. The weather: one bad day out of six. Overall it was a great time and we’ll do it again.
