Our
Amsterdam to Bruges bike and boat holiday turns out to be a popular trip year after year. Within easy reach of most destinations in the United Kingdom - you can fly to Amsterdam from many airports around the country, take the
Eurostar train, drive, or even do the crossing by boat – this introductory level cycling holiday to Holland & Belgium is highly accessible.
Guided Cycling Holiday
The advantages you have on a guided cycling holiday are that you don’t need to worry about navigating and have someone around with local knowledge. On our bike and boat trips in the 'Lowlands', we pedal on a leisurely pace through the Dutch and Flemish countryside in a group of like-minded travellers. Our guide takes the group out for walks of the medieval towns in the evenings and gives a bit of background history on the lively towns. Our guides know their way around and can advise you on the tiniest matter while on a cycling holiday from Amsterdam to Bruges.
Barge Accommodation
Travelling by boat allows you to unpack only once, but still explore different towns and landscapes on one holiday. Basically the ultimate way to travel for many! On the Amsterdam to Bruges trip, our barge follows us while we cycle short distances from 10 to 50 kilometres each day. The boat has a small but welcoming bar, simple cabins, and comfortable upper deck to relax and watch the scenery go by. On board, we have a crew consisting of a captain, cook and our guide to take care of you during this cycling holiday in Holland and Belgium.

Sights & Bites of the Lowlands
As we cycle the countryside from Amsterdam to Bruges, rural experiences intersperse with medieval cities. Join a walking tour in Ghent, sample the Belgian chocolates and waffles in Bruges, and of course don’t miss out on your chance for a portion of real Flemish fries! In Holland, visit the ancient cheese trading town of Gouda, the picturesque windmills of Kinderdijk, and the natural reserve of the Biesbosch. The food on board is excellent and the Dutch coffee with apple tart & whipped cream is the perfect late morning snack.
