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.

Everything was amazing

The right combo of biking activity and other activities. Loved going through the little towns and cities of Belgium and Netherlands. Felt safe on bikes. 2 countries so bike friendly. Appreciated the other evening activities like beer tasting, chocolate tasting, etc. Tour guides were great. Knowledgeable about the history and made it interesting. Boat staff were personable, helpful (and hardworking !!). Food was great.

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.

Knowledgeable and fun guides. Excellent boat crew. Cabins were clean and tidy. Good food.

Our overall experience with Boat Bike Tour was wonderful. Our guides were very knowledgeable and experienced. We enjoyed the variety of Belgium and the Netherlands, not only while we were biking but as we were traveling on the boat as well. As for the boat and her crew, can t say enough about how they made everything comfortable. Cabins were always clean and comfortable, the meals were amazing. The crew worked very hard to make our experience the best it could be. I highly recommend Boat Bike Tour for a very enjoyable biking experience. My wife and I are great full to Peter and Marleen for making our trip amazing.

Guides were wonderful, helpful, entertaining and informative. Boat was comfortable and clean. Meals could be better, especially the breakfast and lunch. Maybe serve waffles or eggs, it was too repetitive. Staff was excellent

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.

The Magnifique IV is a beautiful boat. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The service and guides were excellent and so accommodating. The chef prepared wonderful, authentic suppers, I especially enjoyed the BBQ one night& so much variety. I would recommend more variety for the breakfast. Also, I think a menu for the supper to show what was prepared would be nice. The bike routes were very nice, plus if we wanted to go individually, the guides were accommodating. We enjoyed the city walks with the tour guide. We had an amazing time and all the passengers were so much fun!

The biking trails in Europe are way superior to that of Canada. The scenery! Our tour guide was a bit of a history buff and the extra tid bits were intriguing. I would do another boat bike tour in a heart beat! The food was amazing. I can t say enough good things about it.
