Tour guides, crew and boat were all wonderful. Thank you. Kenneth & Pamela Maule

fantastic boat-bike tour aboard the fluvius, very clean and comfortable cabin all with en-suites. The cycling each day was fantastic with a choice to cycle the long or short route all maps provided and accompanied by a guide or could cycle solo if desired. Cycled through beautiful countryside and interesting towns and villages. The food aboard was super a hearty breakfast with lots to choose from, we prepared our own packed lunch for the day a lunch bag was provided although I took our own lunch boxes to fill. Dinner was 3/4 courses cooked beautifully and very tasty food. A very lovely and helpful crew and tour guides. we had great fun and met some lovely people.

This was our first organized bike tour (but not our first bike tour). It was just the right blend of cycling and downtime. We opted for doing the daily routes on our own and the route sheets were good, but not great. Fortunately, Holland has easy to follow paths and the occasional wrong turn was easily recovered. The boat staff was over-the-top awesome and the cycling and scenery spectacular. I would do another trip with Boat Bike tours and have recommended them to family and friends.

Fantastic holiday! Everything was well organised. Boat, Magnifique III was superb, brand new and very well kitted out. We liked the flexibility that you could ‘go it alone’ or join in the guided groups. Maps were very clear and easy to follow. Food exceeded our expectations and the hire bikes were good quality. First time for us on a boat/bike holiday and would definitely do again.

We did the 4 night tulip tour which I highly recommend. The boat, bikes, food and staff went beyond expectations. We rode up to 40km a day so a moderate fitness level is recommended however there are also electric bikes available if you prefer.

*** SUPER TRIP *** The team on the boat work incredibly hard to make sure you have everything and are well looked after. The new Magnifique III luxury boat is beautifully appointed. We took Suite 1 which was very spacious and has well sized windows for views on the go. The Tulip Tour we did was very scenic and colourful. Really enjoyed it.

I thought the boat bike april2 tulip ride was great. Staff wonderful. Would appreciate some higher quality of wine to choose from and don’t mind paying for the extra cost Dinners were good but at end of long outdoor cycle I think it’s important to have slightly larger portions and absolutely 2 choices on main course. Myself and others around me not big fish fans of which 2 of 4 dinners were Our bike guide Fred was a fantastic guide leading the faster group. A few rude passengers gave him a hard time for trying to keep the group safe with cycle rules and etiquette. Totally rude guests that should probably choose another holiday option. I would definitely use thie magnifique and crew again. Would like to do a 7 day tour Amsterdam Brugge Trish murphy

We did not know what to expect, but we really enjoyed our time on the Magnifque. The crew was great and attentive. The rooms small, but clean and suitable for a small boat. The tours the perfect length. Good local food. Good company. And great tour guides. Corrie was fantastic and Fred was the best tour guide I have ever had. The only complaint was that the hot tub was not heated the third night and that was the coldest day when it was most needed.

Amazing time! We will travel with Boat Bike tours again. They take all the hassle out of traveling in a different country. The food was excellent, the accommodations were great and the tour guides were extremely helpful and fun. Thanks

This was the best vacation we have ever had. We went with 11 and 12-year-old sons. The crew were so accommodating and helpful. Tom and Wilmea The tour leaders were extraordinary. My only small complaint is that it would’ve been nice if they had Included several 2 minute breaks at sites that deserve taking pictures. The countryside was so beautiful and they were at least 15 or 20 places where we would have loved to stop take pictures and admire the beauty. Instead the priority seem to be getting from point A to point B in a set amount of time, somewhat like a race. We would’ve enjoyed a slower pace way more I think. Overall exceptional. We are going to book another tour for next year to another country for sure. The food and service was superb! The cook was marvelous.
