“Exploring Amsterdam by bike was an unforgettable experience! Our guide, Samy, was fantastic—knowledgeable, fun, and full of great insights about the city. The route was well-planned, taking us through beautiful canals, hidden streets, and local spots we wouldn’t have found on our own. The bikes were comfortable, and despite the busy streets, we felt safe thanks to Samy’s clear guidance. This tour was the perfect way to see Amsterdam like a local. Highly recommended!”

Ride an e-bike from Amsterdam through Waterland villages, visit a windmill, and taste Dutch cheese at a working farm.
“This was an excellent activity! I’d consider it a “must see” for Amsterdam! Getting out of the city to see the country side was wonderful. It is mostly biking and following the guide (about 26 miles total biked) but it’s manageable on the e-bike. We stopped to see cows along the trail, at a little town square, a windmill and at the cheese farm. It was a good pace and tour length. The cheese farm was wonderful and delicious! You get lots of time to sample and shop if you’d like. Our guide was very friendly and courteous. The last hour straight was biking back to the city. The rest…”
See Amsterdam by bike on a 2.5-hour guided ride through Jordaan, Vondelpark, Museum Quarter, the Amstel, and historic harbor islands.
“This is not a pleasant bicycle ride on bike paths. There's a lot of traffic and road crossings that are fairly dangerous if anyone isn't really paying attention. My wife was really stressed out the whole time and couldn't wait to be done. With a big group of 15 bicycles it is hard to stay with the group at times because not everyone gets through the intersections before the light goes red. The guide was great, I will say that. The bicycles are cheap and wobbly. My handlebars were not tight and they moved up and down.”

Ride from Amsterdam to windmills, villages, canals, cheese, and clogs on a four-hour small-group e-bike tour.
“My husband and I had a wonderful time on this tour! The forecast was sunny with a high of 60, I had layers on but no hat or gloves and regretted it within the first five minutes. Dress warmer than you think necessary, it’s windy. . Christian was a great guide, gave us detailed instructions on the route we were taking and warnings about riding etiquette. We had a wonderful day away from the city among the canals and livestock with their young. The e-bikes made the mileage easy. I would hesitate to bring a child younger than 12 if they are not used to city/road riding. A great experience!”
