Holland
Bike-friendly haven
This small country is packed with treasures. From the famed canals and art collections of Amsterdam to the springtime tulip fields, Holland is a bicyclist’s dream.
Revisit the Middle Ages in the country’s many surviving castles and grand estates. The walled towns of Holland’s trade routes are delightful to explore, and the maritime tradition is still seen in its quaint harbor towns.
Pedal on abundant bike paths and experience the bike-friendly Dutch culture. The country is home to many of the most popular bike and boat tours, where you can choose to enjoy the Dutch countryside from two wheels or from a boat deck on the extensive canals and waterways.
A really enjoyable way to discover a new country. We were fortunate to have a very helpful tour guide, along with a first class chef providing excellent meals as well as very helpful barge staff. Our boat the Anna Anatel accommodated 17 guests and was an ideal group size for this type of activity.”
