Saarburg to Koblenz Bike & Barge Tour
Our bike and barge tour certainly exceeded our expectations. The captain and crew were very welcoming and always went out of their way to ensure all our needs were met. While the cabin was on the small size, it was certainly adequate in the circumstances as we were mostly cycling during the day or socialising in the common areas of the vessel at other times. Being a small boat meant we got to know all fellow travellers by sight and got to know quite a few very well. We were the only Australi...
Bike and Barge Tulips Tour
Really can’t begin to say how much we enjoyed this bike and boat tour - it totally surpassed our expectations, and we knew when we booked it would be an amazing trip. Right from the minute we stepped on board, the crew looked after everything for us. They were very professional, but friendly and fun also. Vases of tulips greeted us in the dining room and salon area - nice touch!! The meals were incredible - never expected an Italian chef, that was a huge bonus!! Our cabins were a good size...
The 5-day Tulip Tour
We had a fantastic time aboard the barge for the Tulip Tour with Jens and Marleen as our guides. Many of the boat crew were delightful, and the food was excellent. If there were any issues on the ship, the crew were quick to address them. The group of passengers on our boat were all very nice and a quick camaraderie was formed between us all. The bike tour itself was outstanding. We opted for regular bikes, but many on our boat had e-bikes. The Dutch mountains (fierce headwinds) did make an a...
Netherlands and Belgium: Amsterdam-Bruges Premium
The first leg of our trip was aboard our barge for 8 days and it was marvelous. The ship, furnishings and bikes were in great shape, and the crew, guides and scenery were second to none. Plenty of good food and drink, for any waistline. Thanks so much for reorganizing this trip as many times as you did, to make it happen in these unsettled times.
Venice to Mantua
The Mantua to Venice tour was amazing! I can't say enough about how wonderful this experience was. Italy is amazing always, but in this case, it was the staff and tour leaders that made this vacation so memorable. The tour guides took such great care of us - really trying to make our riding enjoyable. The boat staff (including the guides) were obviously happy to be there, worked very well together as a team and made it their mission to make us happy. The food was great, the boat was cle...
5 Day Tulip Tour
I really enjoyed our Tour of the Netherlands. I loved biking every day. The pace was just right and we were allowed enough time to stop and look around. The food on the ship was excellent. Our cabin on the ship was excellent too. It was great to meet other tourists on the ship and have someone to share meals with. I highly recommend this type of vacation - April 2022
5 Day Tulip Tour
I just came back from a 5-day Tulip Tour. The barge is adorable and the staff (Captain, Sailor, 2 hostess and 2 tour guides) were all top notch! The crew worked together like a well oiled machine and made sure all the guests had a great time. The bike tours were great and we saw plenty of flowers (specially tulips) with a lot of exercise. We got back to the barge every afternoon with time to explore the village before or after dinner...My only advice...Rent an e-bike...the wind can be really ...

8 Day Tulip Tour
My husband and I just completed the 8 day Tulip Tour. It was fabulous in every way. The ship is beautiful, comfortable, and well maintained. Every staff member went out of their way to be sure all passengers were happy and well taken care of. The food was outstanding! Michael surprised us every day when we returned from riding with a special culinary delight. I highly recommend this trip! - April 2022
Tulip Tour
My husband and I loved the Tulip Tour Bike and Barge trip. The barge was beautiful, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the wonderful meals, and we looked forward to the chef’s announcement each evening of the dinner we were about to be served! The two leaders were outstanding! Each day was well organized, with the perfect combination of biking and sightseeing. The biking routes were scenic, with rest stops along the way at quaint cafes and villages. Safety was paramount, and I appreciated that...
8 Day Tulip Tour review
Our very first tour was the eight day Tulip Premium Tour on the Fleur. We had high hopes for the adventures and they were met and exceeded ten fold. The tour was fabulous from start to finish and I can enthusiastically recommend this tour, boat, staff, and guides. The bikes were excellent, accommodations and food were outstanding, and I felt encouraged and supported throughout the trip. Special kudos to the amazing guides Marianne and Gijsbert who really were outstanding! Two thumbs - and eig...
Allure Tulip Tour
Really can’t begin to say how much we enjoyed this bike and boat tour - it totally surpassed our expectations, and we knew when we booked it would be an amazing trip. Right from the minute we stepped on board Allure, the crew looked after everything for us. They were very professional, but friendly and fun also. Vases of tulips greeted us in the dining room and salon area - nice touch!! The meals were incredible - never expected an Italian chef, that was a huge bonus!! Our cabins were a goo...
