Travel Map

Day 1 Arrive Amsterdam

Make your own way to Amsterdam and check into the first hotel. Amsterdam is one of Europe's crown jewels - there is so much to do and see here. If you arrive early make sure you go for a walk to marvel at the 17th century townhouses in the World Heritage listed canal ...

Day 2 Cycle to Haarlem (30km/18.7mi)

If you haven't already visited the Van Gogh Museum or Anne Frank's house we recommend going early this morning to beat the queues. Later, say "tot ziens!” to amazing Amsterdam and start cycling. The urban buzz will soon change to the peace and quiet of the countryside...

Day 3 Explore Haarlem before continuing your cycle to Leiden (43km/26.5mi)

Haarlem, one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands, deserves to be explored extensively before your bicycle tour today. A famous photo spot is the small white drawbridge over the Spaarne, with the two gabled houses in the background. On the main square you will find...

Day 4 Cycle past windmills, polders and farmhouses en route to Delft (29km/18mi)

After leaving lively Leiden, peace and quiet will reign once more in today’s typical Dutch scenery. As you cycle you'll notice the orderly rectangles in the man-made polder landscape (mostly peat land reclamations). Pass by shining lakes and green pastures, old windmi...

Day 5 Continue through Holland's 'Green Heart' to Gouda (34km/21mi)

This stretch of the tour takes you through the 'Green Heart' - a stronghold against urban sprawl in Randstad conurbation. Balancing atop polder dikes, delight in characteristic villages, distant horizons and fields of vibrant green. As you wander around the city of G...

Day 6 Return to Amsterdam (68km/42.3mi)

After a hearty breakfast at your hotel, get back on your bike and set off on the longest leg of the tour. Once again you will be cycling through the rural 'Green Heart'. The scenery is punctuated by rivers, polders and lakes (bird lovers, be sure to bring your binocul...

Day 7 Trip concludes

The trip concludes in Amsterdam after breakfast. We can assist with booking extra nights on request - please ask for our rates. Amsterdam gets very busy, book early.
