The barge was very clean and comfortable including my private accommodations. Our guides always responded to my needs and concerns and always reassured me when I was unsure about some of the challenges of bicycling. Our meals were delicious. Our tours were interesting and meaningful and although the weather was not the best, I had a lot of fun!

Our recent April trip onboard the Zaantje was great! Captains Martin and Marco are very experienced, kind, good natured, and competent. Chef Frank created wonderful meals. Housekeeping by Karen was perfect and her artistic napkins each dinner were beautiful. Mate Marco was very skilled. Bike guides Hattie and Jeroen were wonderful guides and lovely people. While the weather was less than optimal, the tour through The Netherlands was overall a great experience.

Great way to share time with 9 family members – being able to be outdoors, exercising, meals prepared and a place for us all to sleep. No worries about making decisions. Everyone was happy.

Our guides, Bert and Anne were great. They were knowledgeable and fun.They were flexible with adjusting bike rides because of the rainy,windy weather. We rode through beautiful countrysides and charming cities. The food cooked by Franco was superb. He expertly satisfied all the palates even those with allergies and food preferences. All our needs were taken care of by Matje, Tomec and Captain Coba.

This was our second trip aboard the Zwaantje we rode through the tulip fields and were delighted with the visits to the cheese makers in Gouda The Keukenhof Tulip Garden and Hortus Bulborum (horrid-bulborum.nl)where tulip bulbs are preserved for future generations. The Flower Market was well worth the timeThis trip was in April and preparations for Dutch weather is important your rain coat will keep you dry and your e-bike will tackle the wind for you. Martin the Captain,Karin the hostess, Frank the Chef, and the guides Hetty and Jeroen made the trip made the trip very special. Thank you to Brando for all your behind the scenes support. The soon to be skipper Hugo was a delight. Thank you. traveling on a barge with 24. passengers beats a large ship cruise any day
