Great way to explore the city

5.00Miguel was really good and knowledgeable about the city. We had driving rain but still loved the experience. There were 10 of us so he worked hard to keep us together in a very busy city
Bike+boat = good choice

5.00Started on time. Bike is ok, not worse than any bike in the city. Perfectly guided by Luba across city’s must haves. Physically bearable for men, ladies and kids. Boat trip is cool! You have to go by yourself to the marina which is just 10 mins from the bike shop. Cheese is fresh, unlimited white/ rose wines, Heineken, soda drinks. Guide tells you some history of the city and main info about buildings. Recommend 👍

No Bike Ride…unable to locate the bike shop in time

2.00We were using navigation on our phone to locate the bike shop at the address provided. We could not find it, so I contacted the guide. She could not give me directions from where we were to the shop and said they could not wait for us. When we got to the bike shop they had left. The bike shop owners were very nice and tried reaching her to find out where the group was, so we could catch up, but the guide would not answer her phone. We never got to do the tour. We did go on the canal cruise that was part of the package and that was well run and enjoyable.
Perfect.

4.00Luba, the guide, was very knowledgeable and helpful but the bike shop might have wanted to ask more questions about level of bicycle experience. One of the other guests kept missing the lights. Her husband might have helped too. 🤣
Excellent

5.00The sites of Amsterdam were awesome. Amsterdam was a fun city to visit- the only challenge was it is challenging to drive though parts of the city on bikes.
Fantastic and entertaining tours!

5.00Claire was so fantastic on our bike tour! Funny, informative, inclusive, and entertaining. We got the lay of the land, heard interesting facts, and enjoyed the views. The canal cruise was equally fantastic - great cheese and wine, and terrific guides with fun anecdotes. A great way to see the city with a little exercise then relaxation!
Just an "eh" tour.

2.00I liked the bike ride, but that was mostly what it was. We didn't get much history or introduction to the city. Tour guide was nice but not super informed. We also moved slowly and missed the last section because we had to rich back to get the boat. It was not clear these were two separated bookings. The canal cruise was better for history on the city but NOT a small group despite the advertisement that I was booking a small group. I was disappointed in that as well. Overall, it was not worth the price tag. I think a regular sized group with a more lively guide would have been better or more cost effective.
