Bike and boat tours
Pedal by day, float by night
Love to cycle and love the water? We have just the thing for you.
Bike and boat tours are a popular choice for couples, families and groups of friends looking for a unique vacation around the world. Similar to regular land-based cycling tours, bike and boat tours take you cycling through beautiful landscapes and wonderful sights during the day.
Then, at night, you’ll meet up with your “floating hotel” and continue to enjoy the changing scenery from the boat deck.
These tours are perfect for every traveler, including those who aren’t up for cycling every day, as they have the choice to simply stay on board and enjoy the scenery from the boat.
Our small group was just right for riding and for socializing on the boat. The bike routes and stops for lunch and for evening walks were idyllic. Coming to the boat for a first-class meal at the end of the day was a delight.”
