This was such a great day for us. We were a large group of 14 and our guide Christen was fabulous. He looked after us very well. The scenery was so beautiful, it was so nice to see the country side !! All the stops were great and the bikes were top notch. The ride was made quite easy with the bikes. We would highly recommend this tour, it was a highlight of our time in Amsterdam!! Thanks Christen !!
Loved the countryside e-bike tour! Mark was an absolute amazing guide. The countryside was beautiful and learning about the water issues, boggy land, and the dams was fascinating. The boat transfers were a breeze. The cheese and clog stop was cheesy yet gave us a lifetime memory.
My family and I had an excellent experience all around. I would definitely recommend it.
Thanks Richard. A family day out that everyone enjoys is the best result a tour can have. Thanks for the recommendation and come ride with us again. Ashton
Wonderful day exploring quaint towns and beautiful scenery. Our guide, Anne, was kind, knowledgeable and made our whole excursion feel easy. The e-bikes worked very well - helmets were also available. Would highly recommend!
Thanks Katherine. Making a full day feel easy is the guide's art and Anne has it. Glad the quaint towns and the e-bikes both delivered. I will pass this on to her. Ashton
Great day out The Netherlands constantly changing weather made it more interesting Just needed a coffee stop
Thanks William. Dutch weather likes to keep a ride interesting. Fair point on the coffee stop, it is something we will look at on the route. Glad it was a great day out. Ashton
Christian was great. The bike ride through the countryside was awesome. Total 5 star and would recommend this for families.
Thanks Dorrie. Christian will be glad to hear it. The countryside ride suits families especially well, so thank you for recommending it to them. Come ride with us again. Ashton
An excellent tour with our wonderful guide, Hugh! Beautiful landscapes, fairytale villages and the Clog & Cheese shop was interesting and entertaining. Highly recommend this 4 hour e-bike tour - well worth the price and genuinely the highlight of our visit to Amsterdam!
Thanks for this. Fairytale villages is a fine way to put it, that is exactly the landscape the ride was built around. Huw will be pleased to hear he made the highlight of your visit. Thanks for the generous recommendation. Ashton
Gus and Christopher are amazing. They have so much knowledge, are experienced riders and have a great sense of humor. Great way to see the country side!
Thanks Jacqueline. Gus and Christopher together are a lot of knowledge and a lot of jokes on two bikes. Glad the countryside showed itself well. I will pass this on to them both. Ashton
This was really nice, and of course the weather didn't make it worse, sun an 23°C. Annie was so good, charming and knowledgeable we liked her a lot. We really recommend this.
Thanks for this. Sun, 23 degrees and Annie on form, that is the countryside ride at its best. I will pass your kind words on to her. Thanks for the recommendation. Ashton
This was a great experience to see the countryside in a short span of time and get some exercise too! Our guide was very knowledgeable and took great care in making sure our group stayed together safely. She answered a lot of our questions and was able to provide the perspective of a local. Very enjoyable!
Thanks Leanne. Keeping the group safely together while answering everything from a local's perspective is exactly the job, and I am glad your guide did it well. Come ride with us again. Ashton
