Miguel 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
Hello Caroline, Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the tour despite the rain and appreciated Miguel’s effort and knowledge. We hope your next adventure in Amsterdam is just as enjoyable!
Started 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 👍

We 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.
Hi Judy, We are very sorry that you couldn't join the tour as expected. It’s important to arrive a bit earlier to ensure everything is ready before starting, as we sometimes have other groups booked and need time to coordinate properly. The team was waiting and kept talking to you on the phone, but unfortunately, you couldn’t make it, even though we gave you the right address. After waiting for 15 minutes, then we needed to begin as there were other guests waiting to start the tour and the guide wasn't able to answer her phone as she was riding the bike and leading the group. We appreciate your understanding in this matter and we are glad you enjoyed the boat tour. Thank you. Kind regards.
The excellent bike tour, the French guide the best of the best. 10 . I would do it again and with this guide .Luedo we went to the boat trip that I was very good , with local cheeses and lots of Spanish free wine (never better than Argentine wines).
¡Hola Leo! Muchas gracias por confiar en nosotros a la hora de elegir el tour, nos ha encantado tenerles con nosotros. ¡Un abrazo!
Luba, 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. 🤣

The 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.
Hello! Thank you for trusting us, we loved having you on our tour. We hope to welcome you on one of our tours again in the future. Best regards.
Claire 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!

I 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.
