Overview

Cruise and cycle through Holland’s flower fields, stopping off at historic cities and gardens on this 7 night guided Boat & Bike tour. Visit the world-famous Keukenhof Gardens to see thousands of tulips, hyacinths and daffodils, take in the spectacle of the Aalsmeer flower auction and spend the night moored in the Zaanse Schans open air museum surrounded by traditional windmills. Starting and finishing in Central Amsterdam, you'll visit the cities of Haarlem, Leiden, Gouda and Alkmaar while spending the week aboard the luxurious Magnifique I barge or the comfort class Zwantje or Fleur. The leisurely cycling routes follow dedicated cycle paths next to canals and through the countryside, with the option for longer or shorter rides on most days. If you’re set on seeing the tulips but your preferred dates aren’t available, take a look at our other bike tours to Holland's tulip region.
