We had a wonderful time on the magnifique II. We were on the tour from Amsterdam to Bruges. The weather didn’t cooperate but that didn’t dampen the spirits of the crew and passengers. We Biked in all types of weather and had a great time. Tom and Hester were knowledgeable guides and pointed out many points of interest. The terrain is very flat so it is easy biking. Be sure to wear sometime of padding or bring a gel seat…….a day on a bike can leave your bum a bit sore. The crew was helpful and nice. Ingaborg and another gal were helpful and delightful. Michele the chef created some wonderful meals in his small kitchen! Breakfasts were good with a lot of variety. Meats, cheeses, breads, bakery, salad, eggs and other goodies. I would sign up for another tour with this company. It was a great value and fun. The rooms were clean and functional and nicely decorated.

really great

Great guides, excellent chef and a marvellous captain and crew. You are well served.

I traveled on the Amsterdam-Bruges trip with my father and sister on the Magnifique III. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. Our bicycle guides, Tamy and Carla, were supportive, knowledgeable, capable AND very good company for the long days exploring the countryside and cities. They led us to beautiful places and taught us so much of the history and culture that make this a rich place. The Magnifique III is a luxury vessel in every sense. She is well appointed with lovely cabins. The crew made cruising comfortable and seamless. Our chef served plentiful, delicious, healthy meals that catered to a number of dietary need of the passengers. We were met after each ride with ice water garnished with fruit and a light snack to tide us over until dinner. We really were spoiled so that we could concentrate on spending our time catching up with each other!

We so enjoyed our trip on the Magnifique III from Bruges to Amsterdam. The bicycles were perfectly suited for us. The accommodations were so attractive and very comfortable. The crew was very professional and also very friendly. The food fresh, plentiful and delicious. Each day’s bike ride (rain or shine) was exhilarating and a perfect length. We liked being active most of the day. Our guides always stressed safety and so knowledgeable.

The Magnifique III is nice and fresh and new. The food is excellent. The accommodations are fine. The guides, Tammy and Carla, were good. I only got lost once. One irritant: The E-bikes that passed me every time there was a gap. It made me feel like they were cheating. Overall it was a great time.

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.

This was an excellent holiday on a great boat with super hosts who could not do more for you. The food was healthy and tasty, The drink prices were reasonable. The bikes were like new and the escorted tours were very interesting and we visited very beautiful parts of Holland.

Beautiful boat, excellent staff/crew and tour leaders, good food and great group of fellow pax/bikers. Cabin exceeded expectations (and we were on the lower deck), and no criticisms at all.

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.
