Windmill, Cheese & Countryside Electric Bike Tour
Overview
Available languages
2 hours 30 minutes
Mobile ticket
Small group tour - Max 10 participants
A short ferry ride and an easy cycle through the north of the city and we’ll reach the Waterlands, the countryside just outside of Amsterdam. Soon it’s cows and farmers’ signs offering up freshly made ice cream or milk.
We'll discuss water and land management, see an old-school windmill, explain why the Dutch are so bike-crazed, and how they used these paths during the Second World War in search of the goods they needed to survive. There will be plenty of photo opportunities along the way as we cruise through a few villages and stop to take it all in.
Because the Netherlands is relatively flat, one does not need to be in top shape to partake and the electric bike makes it a breeze. We'll spend most of our time outside the city for a relaxed cycle journey.

5.00What a great morning! Absolutely recommend this tour and the company, Those Amsterdames. We did a 2.5 hour small group tour with our knowledgeable "local" guide Kevin. The bikes are really good and provide easy riding, not too much effort required. It's a great way to see the Amsterdam countryside. Don't be put off by the cycling mayhem in the main part of the city, 5 minutes to the ferry and it becomes much calmer and more civilised. Helmets are available but very few people in Amsterdam use them, maybe they lead charmed lives. They certainly ride like they are invincible! Please do try and arrive at the time specified in the communications, i.e. 15 minutes before the tour start time to allow for bike set up and safety brief. Our tour was late departing due to two people arriving very late. It was frustrating having to wait for someone else's poor timekeeping, but Kevin and the team were able to allow the tour to over run the allotted time.

5.00It was a sunny hot day (30°) for our ebike ride. There were 7 people in our group + our guide Corbin. There was only 1 windmill but lots of beautiful countryside with cows & sheep along the way. We bought a delicious frozen limoncello yogurt from the Beemster dairy & enjoyed tasting some cheese our guide purchased. We rode through a few picturesque small villages, which were difficult to photograph but charming. It was over before we knew... very enjoyable.
Great tour!

5.00This was a great way to see outside of Amsterdam! They provide a great tour over a few hours riding through the scenery. There was support to get to know e-bikes and how to use them as well as riding in Amsterdam in general and its biking culture. Locals of the countryside appear to enjoy seeing tourists out there with our guide. My bike fell and needed some adjustment to fix which our awesome guide was more than prepared for!
Great trip. Meet in...
