Everything about this tour was great. The bikes were in perfect condition, the crew was warm and friendly, the food was amazing, the biking was just right and the accommodations were luxurious. The shower was especially nice. I loved it.

Fantastic boats, lovely crew, amazing food. A truly relaxing week on board magnifique IV.

Superleuke actieve vakantie voor ons gezin!!! Heerlijke luxe kamer, superlekkere en verzorgde maaltijden, hartelijke gastvrijheid en iedere dag een boeiend uitje op de fiets en een guided tour van de gids in het overnachtingsstadje. Veel indrukken, veel afwisseling, echt even je hoofd leeg en lekker weg. 4 sterrenhotel op het water; heerlijke bedden, mooi linnen, dikke handdoeken en Rituals badkamergoodies….

Very good trip ! One very good week from Amsterdam to Bruges Very friendly staff good food and nice bikes riding Very fair attitude on this corona time, our original booking was on Danube région and we get an upgrade to switch on Netherlands area.

This boat bike tour was everything we hoped it would be. The accommodation and the meals were fantastic. The ship is well-appointed and well-laid-out, making excellent use of the space available. Meals were varied, generous and scrumptious. Our biking guides were knowledgeable, helpful and friendly; they really added to the fun of the experience. I found I actually preferred the rented bike to my own bike at home — it was that comfortable! We will definitely be looking to do another such trip.

We had an outstanding time! Totally loved the tour guides. Really enjoyed all the stops for history facts and info. The food was great and the service on the boat included some really outstanding employees. I would hire Demarus in a second!

Excellent week on a great barge with wonderful guides and a great chef! Biking is the way to see the world.

Everything we expected plus a lot more.. a fantastic trip you do not have to be a good cyclist to enjoy this experience

Overall an excellent trip. The staff and guides were all very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. At times communication at the start of each day could have been clearer, as the message did not always get through to everyone. That being said ,we would highly recommend the Bike and Boat vacation aboard Magnifique II

“Our trip on the grande old Magnifique was really first rate all the way. The food was deliciously prepared and served. The guides were thoughtful, kind and knowledgeable. The route was diverse and interesting. The side tours in Antwerp, Dordrect, and Ghent and the smaller towns were well guided with humor, history and cultural side notes. Our captain Bert was informative and respectful. Our cook, Russell was outstanding and yet very humble considering his expertise. Our guide Bert was approachable and fun, and lead guide Corrie, a former university history professor, was a wealth of information and incredibly forthcoming, warm and personable. This crew was “”the dream team!”” This was a 65th birthday gift for my wife and it exceeded our expectations by a country mile. (BTW the e-bikes were a treat, and we will probably buy two when we return home!). Well done Boat Bike Tours!!”

“We booked the Bruges – Amsterdam tour on the Magnifique III and everything was excellent. The crew was fantastic and provided attentive service and hospitality. The food was excellent and the lodging on the ship beautiful. Our guides were knowledgeable, entertaining and what I liked best, was they never made you feel like you “”should”” do anything you didn’t want too, like cycle longer if you wanted to retire to the ship for an afternoon. There were some glitches with their email system before our trip but they were minor in comparison to the great experience we had on the tour.”

In jeder Beziehung excellent — vom Schiff,Essen, Betreung bis zu den Tour-Guides! Es war eine ganz tolle Woche und wir freuen uns auf ein nächstes Mal!
