Holland’s historic towns are laced with stories of the sea. This tour brings to life the knights, merchants, fishermen, and artists who lived in the small country surrounded by water. You will cycle through beautiful and varied landscapes – from Dutch lowland ‘polders’ with Friesian cows to ancient fenland – and visit historic towns with medieval houses, windmills and an impressive castle. The towns around the old Zuiderzee, now the IJsselmeer lake, all have their own unique culture, evident in their architecture, costumes, dialects and delicacies. Cycle to Edam, Enkhuizen, Lemmer, Kampen and Harderwijk where the local culture is staunchly protected. Enjoy views across the old Zuiderzee, try deliciously smoked fish and cross the IJsselmeer on a ferry boat. The tour covers 7 days with an easy skill level and prices starting from €2225.
