Group of 7 Canadians

We were a family group of 7 Canadians who had been looking forward to this trip for 2 years. It was my first experience with an ebike, and despite recovering from a recent knee injury, that choice, plus the flat route, made the whole ride most enjoyable even in some very windy weather. There is a reason the Netherlands has so many windmills! Though small the cabins were very clean and comfortable, the staff were VERY helpful and kind, and Chef Ben’s food was exquisite! The boat was spacious with several lounging areas to enjoy the sunshine, the view of the locks, or even just a little quiet time. Even the wifi was great. We felt very safe in the care of our wonderful guides Corrie & Jerome (sorry, apologize for any name misspelling). After using a road bike for many years, I wondered what the heavier touring bikes would be like but in fact they handled beautifully and the Ebike felt like we were going downhill even during very windy days. The paniers were very well designed, and most convenient for carrying lunches, extra clothing (the spring weather can be brisk &/or wet) or even souvenirs. This route would be an excellent choice for a casual cyclist, especially because of the comfier saddle and ebike option. We had a wonderful time and made some great memories!
