It was a great tour, first after the pandemic, and they did an outstanding job. An easy tour for first time boat and bike cyclers it met the mark in every way. The way they did the sailing to and from Budapest we got to all the sites along the way. The food was wonderful, breakfast and dinners especially. We were allowed plenty of time to accomplish our cycling so stopping for beer and lunch as desired were lovely options. This was a perfect mix of cycling and sightseeing for those who were new to this type of travel. It’s a wonderful way to see the country and a trip you’ll never forget. A great mix of activity and leisure.

Our tour from Amsterdam to Bruges on the Magnifique II was spectacular. The captain, chris and his crew were so accommodating and kind to everyone. Our chef, Jordy’s food was absolutely restaurant quality. Rooms were extremely clean and our servers Esme and Tara went out of their way to make everyone feel comfortable and cared for. Both tour guides were excellent and Jens added so much knowledge and history to each of our outings. Highly Recommend this boat and tour!

Toured Ijsselmeer on the Leafde fan Fryslan. We had an amazing time with our captain Floris and the entire crew. Everything was well done and the experience was exceptional. We hope to do this again in the future.

We had an amazing time on the Magnifique II Tour from Bruges to Amsterdam. Chef Edwin’s three-course meals were outstanding. The Tour guides Wendy and Jens did an excellent job showing us the sites along the tour. Captain Hylke was constantly making sure that everyone was well-taken care of. The rest of the crew, Tara, Esmee, and Thomas were always helping out in a variety of capacities. They were friendly, thoughtful, and always made sure everyone was comfortable and having a good time. Everyone on the crew goes the extra mile. My mother had a minor accident on her bike and when Esmee found out about it she wrote her a thoughtful note and brought her some delicious chocolate. We highly recommend this tour.

This was an absolutely great trip. Loved our boat and crew. Everything was top notch. Already planning another trip for next spring.

We had a great experience on our tour of the Dalmatian Islands of Croatia. The guides, Mario and Igor, were fantastic, as were the cook, the captain and the rest of the crew. Highly recommend this tour!

Excellent experience, second bike tour with Boat Bike. Options for less aggressive and more aggressive bikers. Not a good choice for people in bad physical shape or road bikers who want to go 50 km an hour. Food was good but not fancy. All the desserts were superb. Options for vegetarians and vegans but I would not choose that if you are not. Excellent guys Thomas and Fred who were mostly patient. Thomas had a particular interest in making the ride cultural and had an interest in history. Accommodations were beyond basic but definitely not luxury. Cabins are well designed and there is plenty of hot water. The crew on the Fleur was exceptional all the way around. I particularly enjoyed Rieke and Majda. The chef Barbara was a lot of fun and did a great job. We will go on another tour with them.

We had a wonderful trip. The boat was comfortable and very clean. The staff were great. Biking was fun and well planned out. I would recommend for sure.

We went on the Magnifique II for the second time and have been on the III and IV previously. We always choose the Magnifique boats because of the excellent quality/care and friendliness of the Magnifique crew. The ownership and staff have always been amazing. This time was no different. Our guides in the past have been extremely knowledgeable of the sites and explained everything in detail. Our main tour guide on this trip seemed to be more interested in just getting to the final destination. Missed visting some of the beautiful castles/churches and seemed to not have the interest in sharing details with us or possibly didn’t know about them. The Magnifique boats are superb and we hope to go again next fall.

We started enjoying this Boat Bike tour from the moment we saw the Barge. We had a wonderful week on the Hanseatic Tour; never realised Holland was so interesting and beautiful, made all the more enjoyable by our lovey crew and guide Patrick. Food and facilities were excellent with lovely extra touches from our chef with nibbles when we arrived back from a days cycling and again after dinner in the evening. Whole crew mucked in at dinner and nothing was too much trouble for them. Will definitely book another tour.
