Very organised with plenty of pre arrival information. Very detailed cycle instructions, maps and gos information. Extremely pleasant staff

We had a great experience on the Hansa Highlights bike tour. Can t say enough good things about the whole trip and have referred several friends to this company already! We really like the simplicity of this type of trip where everything is planned and you have a floating hotel where you sleep every night. We chose this boat (De Nassau) because it had operable windows in all rooms. The staff on the boat was so friendly and helpful, they really made us feel welcome and provided  over the top service the whole time. The bike tour was great too, as was our tour leader Olga. Having the GPS app guide us through the country was great and simple (for the most part…;-)). The Dutch countryside and waterways are beautiful to ride through. Lots of interesting, historic towns on the route. If you haven t ridden a bike in the Netherlands, you will be amazed at the extensive network of bike paths Everywhere! It s unbelievable even through some fields between towns! Wish we had it in the US. Most of the time you ll ride on a dedicated bike path and at times on a smaller road with cars and a bike path. When you exit and enter towns, especially Amsterdam, there will be interaction with road crossings and bikes zipping around you so you have to be ready for that too, but you get accustomed to it. The food was very good and you pack your lunch to take each day on your ride. Overall we thought the trip was very well organized and great fun and a great value. We met lots of nice folks on the trip too from Holland, Canada, Germany and the US. We d definitely do a trip with Boat Bike Tours again! A couple tips we’d make is to bring a rear view mirror and don’t forget your padded bike shorts!

We had a great experience on this tour! The e-bikes were a positive choice, the crew on the ship was exceptional. Highly recommend this tour!

The crew and experience was awesome. We enjoyed every trail.

Great holiday with excellent crew and support staff. The bikes were in great condition and we had no issues with them. The cycling routes are really lovely with the provided maps and instructions clearly leading us through every step. The online app was very beneficial. The only downside was the food. It was ok but relied heavily on sauces and the breakfast buffet was the same every day without much choice to make our packed lunch interesting.

“This was my 5th B/B tour and this trip was a little lower than the others in quality. The crew was fantastic – every one of them – but the food was obviously store-bought instead of being made on-board, the lack of Chef curated meals was obvious to veterans like us. Also – and this is big for many of us – this was supposed to be a bike AND boat tour – but this was a boat/bike/bike/bike tour. Other than the cruise the first day, we did not cruise again!!! We started every day where we stopped the previous evening and never had a chance to enjoy the lovely cruising available on those canals and rivers. Finally, although a lovely, friendly woman, Olga was not “”up-to-par”” with the other tour leaders we have experienced. She tried but just didn’t have the answers to issues or present the daily briefings very effectively. On the other hand, the app is BETTER THAN EVER! Really makes it easy.”

The bike tour itself was well done with GPS guidance. Our e-bikes were fine, the accommodations were cozy but manageable. The food was excellent and the crew did everything they could to give us a great experience. We will use Boat Bike Tours again

The trip met my expectations — a great location, great service from the boat staff.

I like to give 5 stars but there is one thing thats not okay. On the boat Nassau the cabins number 102 and 101 next to eath other where very noisy. Normal talking was literal to understand in each cabin.

The staff was really helpfull and considarate. For example, when we came back soken wet after a heavy rain, they were waiting for us with dry towels. THat was so good.

I had a really nice week on De NASSAU. The bike tours were beautiful and the service on board and by the tourguide was excellent.

was een overall super trip. Bemanning byzonder behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Het eten goed verzorgt, lunchpakketten kon je naar wens aanpassen. Hut is goed, matras had wat harder mogen zijn, maar daar is overheen te komen. Elke hut eigen douche en toilet. Dagelijks worden de hutten schoongemaakt, bed opgemaakt en handdoeken , zo gewenst, gewisseld. Al met al een reden voor mij om dit vaker te doen. Jose heeft veel kennis en doet met liefde extra stapjes!! Onzettend bedankt allemaal!!
