What a wonderful tour. The food was fantastic, the crew is amazing and the tour was so much fun. The boat was not crowded, only 15 customers and 7 crew members. It was an incredible trip. Will be doing a future tour.

I had a great time! Informative, delicious food, great guides. Glad I switched to an E bike. Thanks

A thoroughly great experience. The boat was great. A nice intimate size. The crew was great. Biking in the Netherlands is superb.

Excellent experience. Francien, the tour guide was the best!! She was extremely knowledgeable about Netherlands history and eagerly shared her expertise at perfectly timed stops —when our bums needed a break or when we were ready for a coffee. The entire trip was interesting and fun.

We just completed the 8-Day Tulip Tour. It was an amazing experience. The entire crew of the Fleur made our trip very special. The guides Mijntje and Michiel were extremely caring and just full of information. Nothing was too much for them. We lucked out and had great weather for the entire trip. The colors of the flowers were magnificent. The pace of the tour was very good. Plenty of time for taking photos. I commend you on the paths that are chosen for this tour. I was concerned at first that we would be in and out of a lot of traffic, but that was not the case. Thank you for a most unforgettable experience.

the boat was the perfect size only 10 cabins. The captain was excellent. The Chef (Agnes) was amazing. The mate (John), and hostess (Stanislavia)(?) were excellent. All professional, friendly, and welcoming. Bikes were good, we had pedal bikes, but friends with e-bikes were happy as well.. Food was excellent. Beds were comfortable. Guide Francine was simply amazing. She knows the country well and has many stories and much information to share. Rides were good pace.

Great value for your dollars. The variety of biking trails into the countryside and small villages were awesome! The walking tours into the cities/towns in the evening were very informative and highlighted their historical importance as well. The service on the Barge, Fleur was exceptional! The breakfast buffet and evening dinners were outstanding! Plenty of options for packing a lunch each day. I would highly recommend this Bike-Barge Tour.

Lots of fun and the staff was always willing to us about their personal life. Bill

We thoroughly enjoyed our 8 day tulip tour on the Sarah. The crew was attentive to our every need and the meals from our chef Agnes were Fantastic! Our guide Hetty made each ride easy to follow and each evening walk an informative bonus. This trip on a small barge exceeded our expectations and we would definitely recommend it to others.

We had a fantastic time aboard the Fleur for the Tulip Tour with Jens and Marleen as our guides. Many of the boat crew were delightful, and the food was excellent. If there were any issues on the ship, the crew were quick to address them. The group of passengers on our boat were all very nice and a quick camaraderie was formed between us all. The bike tour itself was outstanding. We opted for regular bikes, but many on our boat had e-bikes. The Dutch mountains (fierce headwinds) did make an appearance on couple of occasions, but we managed the week without electric assist. I will say there were some older folks (70+) on our boat who also had non-electric bikes and they managed, but wished they had opted for the e-bikes by the end of the week. We traveled in many different sized groups throughout the week and the level of care the guides took to make sure everyone was informed and looked after was above and beyond. There were numerous other boats doing the same tour routes as us, so it was great to get to meet those crews, passengers, and guides as well. Every night our guides offered a walking tour of each city we were docked in, and we even received a history lesson on the reclaimed lands from Marleen, our guide, whose family has lived there for quite some time. This was our first experience traveling like this and we were not let down in any way. I am looking forward to our next adventure with Boat Bike Tours.
