Description:

Escape the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam and soak up the beauty of Holland’s charming countryside the way the Dutch do—by bicycle. Pedal past picturesque villages and green pastures. Discover a different side of the Netherlands.

Your tour begins with a 5-minute ferry ride to the Waterland district before the real bicycling kicks in. As you disembark the ferry, follow your experienced guide and cycle along open fields. Weave your way through scenic paths. Pass by windmills, old factories, and traditional wooden houses. Visit the quaint villages of this northern region—including Broek in Waterland—and learn about the history and folklore of this district, with its land reclaimed from the sea by dykes (so characteristic of Holland).

You also get the chance to visit the Dikhoeve cheese farm, where you can sample cheese and witness the interesting process of cheese-making.
