Great overview of Amsterdam for a short amount of time - Mona, the tour guide was an excellent teacher. It was like learning from a professor and a local at the same time. Watch out for bikers though. A lot of the local riders ride like crazy and they don't care that you're just an occasional cyclist. It gave us a great overview of Amsterdam. For those who don't know where to go, this is a great starting point. Bring water, enough sleep and energy. The hills are not so easy after 1.5 hrs of biking and you still have 1.5 hrs to go!

Excellent cycling tour of Amsterdam - An excellent tour of the historic centre and parks. The guide was well-informed and full of stories, and the stops along the way were welcome so we could learn more of the history of Amsterdam and have a short rest. Not recommended for young children as it’s about 15 km, otherwise a great way to spend an afternoon. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend-Guided bike tour - Pranay our guide was amazing very informative, took us all round Amsterdam, didn’t realise there were so many canals Stopping along the way to explain the history. We had a 20 min break in the beautiful big park where there is a large cafes. We were very luck as we were the only two on the bike ride with him. Very comfy upright bikes. Managed to dodge the rain while out cycling. Wasn’t scared by other bikes or cars all went smoothly. Highly recommend!! Gives you a very good understanding of the place.

Must have done - We had a great bike tour with Miriam in German. She guided us through the city with great care, humor and information. We learned and saw a lot and would definitely recommend the tour. It took 3.5 hours with a short break in Vondelpark and we covered around 15 km.

Highly Recommended! - We were a great little group of just six people. Our tour guide Mr. Rad led us through Amsterdam with absolute safety, great knowledge and a lot of enthusiasm. This made the bike tour very relaxing and exciting at the same time. It is one of our highlights in Amsterdam.

Had to pay twice - We paid full price in advance, but when we came to the meeting place, they said they can't locate our reservation and we had to pay full price on spot. This is very confusing and disappointing. Waiting for the refund.
