guides were great. room was very comfortable. rides were a bit hectic since you could not dilly daddle. Good to have e bike since then all riders could keep together

We enjoyed the biking and sailing very much. We have wonderful photos and special memories. The weather was unusually cold but we had a great time. We enjoyed meeting the other guests and the team was excellent! Keep up the great work!

The trip met my expectations — a great location, great service from the boat staff.

The biking routes were very well planned. They had stops at interesting places along the way and we learned a lot of history about Netherlands as well as seeing some great landscape. The guides were tireless in helping everyone have solid rides and taking care of the bikes when we finished. The captain of the Fleur ran a fun but efficient ship and was well respected. The rest of the crew were very pleasant and seemed to enjoy their jobs. The chef made some fantastic meals to sustain us and there was plenty of food. We had a great time even though we are elderly, we were able to keep up. We met some fine people and maybe we’ll see them again on another trip.

The crew and guides made this an amazing vacation! Everything on the boat was great…food, drinks, hospitality and the professionalism of the captain. Love the small boat experience! Our bike guides made for a stress free/fun riding experience by letting us know what to expect. Highly recommend!

Two friends of many years traveling together…We loved the barge, Fleur, and her captain Evert! Our home away from home for seven nights, we had a cozy cabin, lovely common area and fantastic crew. The chef, Camilo, bent over backwards to make everyone happy, and prepared delicious and creative dinners. Our fantastic guides, Michael and Maryanne were knowledgeable, patient, savvy (especially regarding weather planning!) and resourceful. I would definitely travel again with this company. Tip: Bring multiple clothing layers, wind and rain protection for this time of year. Waterproof shoe covers and gloves, a waterproof helmet cover recommended, in addition to the obligatory rain pants and jacket.

The captain , crew and guides were all amazing. The Fleur is a beautiful boat with extremely comfortable cabins. The food was excellent.

Thoroughly enjoyed our trip, the organisation was great from start to finish. The staff onboard were really friendly and helpful. The boat itself was spacious and to a very high standard, exceeding our expectations. Bikes were all brand new, so great working order and comfy saddles! Distances covered and speed of riding was as expected. The weather was changeable but as expected for April, however the scenery and tulips easily took our minds off it.

Warm hospitality, friendly people, great food and beautiful sights as we travelled through the country led by knowledgeable guides! It was always a delight to see the Fleur after a day of cycling – she felt like home. We had a trip to remember! Even though the weather was challenging it was a fantastic trip from start to finish.

Overall Boat Bike Tours is top notch. The service was great, the food was wonderful and the accommodations were fabulous. I gave 4 stars because I had a some misinformation given in my pre-trip phone calls. I was told dinners would be at 8p and they were at 6:30p and I was told we would typically be back to the boat around 2p and it was +/-5p. Not a big deal though. Also, we had a lot of weather issues to deal with. At one point, we had to leave our bikes and be bussed back to the barge. Several folks did not want to ride the next day and were told that since their bikes were not at the boat, they had to ride (to get the bikes back to the barge) which created a bit of stress. In the end Boat Bike Tours rectified the situation, but I felt that their first response should have been told ‘sure, no problem’. Still would highly recommend.
