We loved our boat & bike tour!

We loved our boat & bike tour through Netherlands and Belgium! The entire crew on the Magnifique II was amazing, from the tour guides to the hosts to the sailor to the chef to the captain, everyone made us feel at home on the boat. The bikes were really easy to get used to, and the routes were absolutely beautiful. The guides kept the experience interesting with plenty of stops for water/snacks/information. It was a nice relaxed cruise (we stopped for coffee every day)! The terrain is mostly flat, but it’s very windy in the Netherlands! The weather was very unpredictable, so layers and rain gear was key. Most days we returned from our day between 2pm – 4pm, and dinner was around 6pm – 7pm. There was plenty of time to shower, relax, have a drink, and socialize before dinner. The cabins on the Magnifique II were comfortable. They were small but fine for two people. The beds were great, though more narrow than an American twin sized bed. We didn’t spend any time in our room other than to sleep. The ship was very comfortable with lots of spots to sit outside or inside. We did not feel like were in cramped quarters with the other guests. The food on the Magnifique II was wonderful. There was plenty of breakfast to fuel for the day, snacks that we could take with us, as well as a lunch we pack for ourselves. There was a lovely snack available when we returned from the day, and always coffee and tea all day. The chef introduced every dinner with pride and enthusiasm, and it was clear that he loved crafting creative meals for us. We were sad to leave this tour, and the crew, and we are already planning our next adventure with Boat Bike Tours!
