The Amsterdam to Bruge Bike & Boat Tour was one of our best vacations ever. The Manifique II’s crew & bike guides are an exceptional team that made us feel truly welcome and the experience rewarding. The small group setting of these tours was friendly and relaxing – something you don’t experience when on an ocean cruise. Every meal was outstanding and far surpassed anything we have had on an ocean cruise. I have already recommended a Boat & Bike Tour to friends and am considering another one next year.

The trip was wonderful. The boat size was perfect – not too many people. Our cabin was very comfortable. The chef, Olv, did an outstanding job with the meals. Our guide Tom was a lot of fun and did an excellent job leading our tour every day. We enjoyed meeting people from many different countries and hope to do this again soon.

My Best of Holland Trip was great. Well organized, good food, and excellent tour leaders (Hans and Hester) that led the rides. I will definitely consider another Boat Bike Tour

Awesome experience! Every aspect of our boat bike tour was first rate. We would definitely do it again.

I booked this tour hoping for vacation with my 2 daughters 19 and 21 that would combine exercise, good food and quality time together visiting the Dutch countryside where I wouldn’t have to do too much planning. All of these expectations were met! Most of the people on the trip were my age and older (mid-fifities and up), but it didn’t matter at all to my daughters. The boat, Magnifique II, is very nice and the staff more than excellent with a real mind for customer service. The cook, Phyllis was extremely jolly (she reminded me a bit of Julia Child :-) and the food was delicious, healthy and varied. The only thing not in our favor was the weather, but even that didn’t keep us from having an amazing time. I would certainly recommend this trip!

Had a very enjoyable trip with Boat Bike Tours. We did the Amsterdam – Bruges trip on Magnifique II. The staff were very professional, the atmosphere on the boat was relaxed, and the chef did an outstanding job. All the staff were very helpful and the boat was kept in an excellent condition. I highly recommend this boat and trip.

We had a great trip on the Magnifique ll. The boat crew and the tour guides were all fantastic. The food was very good and the portions were very generous.Cycling through Belgium and The Netherlands was a wonderful way to see those two countries.

The staff and guides were great. The food was excellent. This was the best part of our three week Europe trip. We had so much fun we’re already looking our next trip.

Our experience was above our expectations. The staff were wonderful in terms of service from the cleanliness of the cabins, food and beverage service, and tour directors. They were always helpful and friendly and keen to ensure we enjoyed our time. The e-bicycles were very good and allowed us to consider the “long” routes on all days including the windy ones. The barge was very well appointed with modern facilities that were incredibly comfortable and very enjoyable. The GPS routes were very good when the tour directors followed them so well worth the effort to download ahead of time. It was a little disconcerting when the tour director left the planned route and thus a sense of need (stress) to ensure you didn’t get separated from the group. The meals prepared by Chef Bas were excellent. We would highly recommend this tour!

A thoroughly enjoyable trip for my family and I. The staff on the Magnifque II were so professional and competent …. and nice. The tour leaders, Corrie and Hester were extremely knowledgeable and adapted the days to suit the needs of the group. The boat staff, Gaz, Marnek, Chris, Damaris and Gabby were super efficient, and all in all it was a great week. Will recommend!
