Netherlands: bike tours in the home of the bicycle

This is what makes cycling holidays in the Netherlands so special

Friendly and international people, a great cycling infrastructure and various landscapes: There are many advantages when it comes to Holland cycling tours. The Holland region is well known for the maritime flair, polder landscapes, tourist-friendly towns and just has a unique charm. Our routes lead through big cities like Amsterdam as well as dreamy villages where you can get to know the culture and traditions of the Dutch population. Just get going and cycle through fields of tulips, listen to the sound of the clog dance or spot historic windmills. The cycle paths in the Holland region are mostly flat and therefore perfect for beginners or relaxed bikers. Moreover, bicycles are very common and popular in the Netherlands so bikers almost always receive a warm welcome. As the country has a fair share of the North Sea coastline, a cycling holiday in Holland can easily be combined with a beach vacation.

Possible route for your Netherlands bike tour

Most bikers prefer the region around northern Holland as water surrounds them from three sides. Depending on the trip you book, you will get good views of the Northern Sea, Wadden areas or the so-called Lake Ijssel. Apart from the maritime perks of the journey, you will also cycle through other traditional Dutch landscapes, villages and cities. We recommend booking one of our center-based holidays so that you can discover the region fully. If you prefer to focus on the cities, we offer specific city roundtrips that cover the highlights. One of our favorite city tours is the trip connecting Amsterdam and Bruges in Belgium. Like this, you get to visit two countries in one holiday. Alternatively, you can start your cycling holiday in Belgium and make your way to the Netherlands from there. Another option is our Holland cycling holiday to Paris. On the way, you pass great cities like Amsterdam, Antwerp or Ghent.
