Fun and interesting - A great way to spend an afternoon getting out of the city to see some of the surrounding countryside. Kevin was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and informative. He adapted the tour to suit us and to show us interesting areas. Thank you.

Best holiday experience! - This was such a BLAST and THE highlight of our week in Amsterdam. We were terrified at the start of the ride--we're not regular bike riders and Amsterdam is a city filled with experienced riders-- and we exhilarated by the end of our tour. We rode a tiny bit in the city and then out into the countryside, where we saw farm land and animals grazing, a working windmill from the 1600s, and stopped for ice cream at a local dairy farm (self-serve with an honor system for payment--drop your money into the box.) Our wonderful host was incredibly engaging, reassuring and appropriately directive in ensuring our safety. DON'T MISS THIS ACTIVITY. You just have to know how to ride a bike. Let The Amsterdames teach you the rest!

Best bike tour you could take! - Outstanding tour guide (and stand up comedienne) Kendra led a group of 7 safely through the Centraal district to the ferry and out into countryside. She provided educational info about the rural towns, the city, the country. Her 21 years here (not long ago she became a citizen) was the background for her insights. Take this tour! You won’t be sorry!!

Incredible e-bike Trip into the Dutch Countryside - This was a wonderful trip for my husband and I. The equipment is great and they adjust it to fit you comfortably. Thorough instruction in the event you haven’t ridden a pedal assist e-bike. A ride to the ferry then off into the Dutch suburbs and countryside. A beautiful ride, periodic stops, quaint villages and a tremendous guide. I will go again next time I’m in Amsterdam!

A must do in Amsterdam even on a rainy day. - We had a great time biking the countryside. They have e-bikes so it was easy and fun. It was a rainy day but with their nice ponchos we stayed dry. I would say a must do. See how it feels to bike in Amsterdam.

Do it!!!! - The REAL bike experience is this tour through the countryside to get the real Dutch experience. Great well maintained bikes and much needed Ponchos supplied as it was the wettest, rainiest and funnest experience. Will be back again and the longer tour with the village stop for lunch and a beer is well worth it. I'll be back next time 100%

E-bike tour - Kendra was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, funny, and took us to quaint countryside towns. The scenery was beautiful and I’d definitely recommend this tour to everyone. A great value for the money and nice way to escape the city crowds for a bit and experience the country.
