Nobody does springtime in Holland quite like VBT. We’ve planned an itinerary of cycling past windmills and polder villages followed by relaxing on your group’s private Dutch barge. As your cozy ship floats along Holland’s network of canals, you’ll cycle easy paths past massive fields of blossoms, stopping to learn about the history of tulips, daffodils, and other bulbs at the unique garden museum Hortus Bulborum. Ride a ferry across the Wadden Sea to the Frisian Islands where you’ll explore flat, scenic bike paths and peaceful sheep pastures—stopping for lunch at a family farm on Texel Island. On this exceptional springtime bicycling vacation, your experienced VBT trip leaders and dedicated barge crew will open the doors to Holland’s most celebrated season.
Tour Highlights
- Cycle through Holland’s iconic spring landscapes of flower-filled fields, peaceful canals, coastal dunes, and historic villages.
- Discover the artistry of Delft Blue with a visit to Royal Delft, then explore charming canal cities including Delft, Leiden, Haarlem, and Alkmaar.
- Experience the spectacular blooms of Keukenhof Gardens and the rare heirloom flowers of Hortus Bulborum, two of the Netherlands’ most extraordinary spring gardens.
- Ride the windswept North Sea coast and ferry to Texel Island, where rolling pastures, seaside dunes, and traditional sheep farms reveal a quieter side of Holland.
- Cruise and cycle through the Netherlands by barge and bike, blending scenic waterways, rich Dutch history, and vibrant local culture into one unforgettable springtime journey.
It was an amazing experience. We biked through beautiful fields of tulips and gorgeous Dutch landscape. Our group was awesome and the best part of all was our awesome leaders, Marinj, Peter and Werner they made the bike trip so much fun. Whether you are a casual or seasoned rider, this bike tour promises an unforgettable adventure filled with scenic landscape, rich cultural experiences and lasting memories.
