A trip of a lifetime on De Willemstad. The self guided biking tour was amazing passing through beautiful countryside with many windmills and farmlands, as we ate our way through restaurants and cafes in the little villages and towns along the way with no shortage of ice cream shops. The service on the ship was impeccable under the guidance of Lucian who is the perfect concierge and the servers at our table Irina, Maruni and Ionthe (I hope I got his name right) treated us like long lost friends and were very quick at servicing our needs. Food was also very appetizing and adequate. Definitely a trip that should be on your bucket list with Boat Bike tours. A++

The tour guides were wonderful. The gps app made the biking quite easy. Only problem was it would tell you your off route but would not reroute you. Food on ship was good, however the afternoon coffee/tea and cake could be better, more variety. Also leave the coffee and tea out for a longer period. Lastly, evening entertainment was non existent. This should have been provided, ie karaoke, bingo, dance, etc. nothing was provided! We has to create ourselves.

Excellent tour of Northern Holland. Guides Arie and Karen were wonderful and always seemed to be there to keep us on track! Food was good. Rooms were very comfortable! Evening entertainment in the lounge was lacking, although the evening walks were great!

Arnold and Marie are a great team and put the whole package together nicely

Great meals, scenery, comfortable cabin, clear instructions. Entirely enjoyable

Great guides, helpful and attentive staff, comfortable ship and the North Holland tour had the best cycle path system we’ve experienced

Highlight portion of trip was cancelled 24 hours before last day. Volendam and Marken. I find it hard to believe this was a last minute decision. Also food servers should provide plates when salad is served. Otherwise it was a great trip.

Boat and staff were great. Bike guides were very helpful and knowledgeable. Evening discussion for the next day’s ride was very informative.

We had such a great tour that we are already thinking about what to book next. The crew always had a smile in any situation and was very helpful. The daily tour description was very useful and no question was unanswered. The food was delicious and plentiful, but it takes of course some time until all guests are served. And the traditional firework with an ice bomb on cruise ships is available too (with a twinkle in the eyes). You see that the ship is an older one but it’s well maintained and the cabins are modern and always kept clean. The bike tours are fun to ride, I found especially ‚Ride with GPS‘ very useful. But even when ‚only‘ using the node points it’s difficult to go the wrong way. The bikes self are ok for flat areas and tarred ways.

The boat and bike tour was absolutely amazing. Everything was so well organized and we had options each day for the length of ride we wanted to do (or not ride at all if you didn’t want to). Each days ride provided different scenery to check out. We were also provided with information on special places to see. Andreas and Rianna were exceptional tour guides.
