Bike Boat Green Heart of Holland Tour - Guided

Along the way you will visit historical cities such as Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Gouda, uncover many culturally historic attractions and, more importantly, be able to immerse yourself in the very fabric of this fascinating and very Dutch part of Holland.

Also, if you are an art lover, you will revel in the opportunity to explore Leiden, Haarlem and Delft where painters such as Rembrandt, Frans Hals and Vermeer lived and worked.

But far from just being about big cities and Dutch history, this tour is also about the picturesque villages and beautiful scenery of central and South Holland. One thing is certain: by the end of the tour you will not only come away with a new-found appreciation for bike and barge cruising, but everything Dutch.

A bonus during this tour is the fact that your boat docks in and around the city centre of the various cities and villages visited at the end of each day’s cycling, giving you the opportunity to visit and explore at your leisure at night.

The ship – Your sailing hotel

In between cycling excursions, you cruise along with the ship, which travels to a new destination every day. You dine, sleep and eat breakfast on board. You’ll receive a packed lunch every day, and you can usually choose between a longer or shorter bike ride. It’s also possible to spend a day on board if you like. There are rental bikes on board, but you can also bring your own if you mention it when booking.

Fully Guided

Accompanied by a competent, professional and multilingual tour leader, you and the group will visit interesting sights and places on the daily cycling tours. During the bike tour, they will explain the local history and culture behind the things you encounter along the way. You can also choose to ride individually with the help of a map and route notes (available on board)
