excellent guides good knowledge of bicycle repair

The Captain and crew were absolutely wonderful. The bike tour itself was not quite a picturesque as we expected. There were times when cycling in and around vehicular traffic was uncomfortable. The ship is fabulously maintained, clean and beautiful.

Fabulous way to experience Belgium and The Netherlands. Touring these countries lead by Boat and Bikes fun and knowledgable guides made this a truly memorable trip. The boat was like a 5 star hotel with great rooms, excellent staff and delicious food!

Outstanding Captain and staff. Exceptional experience. 5 star restaurant. Great bar at reasonable prices. Very comfortable rooms with ensuite, cleaned daily to high standard. Fantastic guides on wonderful choice of bike routes. E-bikes made it easy. Far exceeded expectations and terrific value for money.

This was our second bike /barge trip. And once again it was wonderful. But it was very different from our journey 4 years ago. The group was smaller and because of its size everyone socialized with each other. We all used the guided tour this time and the two guides, Hester and Nina, traded off every other day so we bonded with both of them. The familiarity was quite nice. Our captain Michael was amazing and the teamwork with all of the seven crew members was a team builder’s dream. They worked seamlessly together. Michael the captain even helped out drying dishes as Albert , his ship hand was often in the kitchen helping Michael , our incredible cook. I absolutely enjoyed our Amsterdam to Bruges journey.

Comfortable Boat and bikes. Excellent food. Great staff on the boat. Fantastic and knowledgeable guides while biking. Highly recommended.

This was a first class experience all around. The Magnifique 11 was beautiful, comfortable and clean. With lots of cozy places to relax. The crew and bike guides were amazing. The food delicious! I have only great things to say. Our route was Amsterdam to Brugge. Get an e bike unless you are crazy fit. We had some head winds and our regular bike crew really struggled.

We loved the bike boat from Amsterdam to Brugges. Everything was first class. Food was excellent, the boat was clean. Staff were friendly. The tours were excellent and distances were great!

Fun, caring staff. The staterooms were clean and comfortable. And the food was great. Overall a great value for the price.

This Bruges to Amsterdam BoatBike tour on Magnifique II was outstanding in every way. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and competent in every way. The cabin was clean and comfortable; the food was delicious, abundant and varied. The cycling was amazing, and we were very lucky to have fine weather each day. Our two group leaders, Arendina and Tom, were exceptional – caring for each rider, providing historical insights and just being delightful and fun to be with. I thoroughly recommend this tour.
