Delicious food is included so that you can end every day with a nice dinner and are set for the awaiting adventures.

Bike & Boat: the perfect duo for an adventure vacation

When combining a river cruise and a cycling holiday, it is up to you how many miles you cycle a day. Like this, you can adjust the holiday exactly to your fitness level and make it a perfect vacation for beginners or families. Moreover, you get to know a specific region as you spend more time in one place. Without daily cycling targets, the vacation becomes more relaxed and less daring. With the gained time, you can wander off and explore historic castles without any time pressure. Another advantage: packing suitcases will not spoil your nights. As your swimming hotel is always near you, you only have to pack and unpack once.
