It should be mentioned that customers will need to purchase waterbus tickets for travel from Venice to the dock site.

The four of us had a wonderful time!
The route was beautiful, bringing us past windmills, canals, fields of tulips, beautiful villages, lambs, and the seaside. The Guibo app was helpful and we could rely on it to guide us, but it did have a couple glitches and I would have liked to have more trip data: distance travelled, distance left, speed. We hit a couple of unexpected detours and had to reroute, but we were lucky enough to not have to add too much distance to our day.
Our Category A hotels were clean and cozy, with generous breakfast buffets and friendly staff. We enjoyed the location of most of them. Our least favorite city was Papendrecht, as there wasn't much to see and do around the hotel. Had we known beforehand, we would have had a wander and dinner in Dordrecht before taking the ferry to Papendrecht, as Dordrecht had a lot more to see and do. Our bad for not checking beforehand, but we didn't expect it after all the other fabulous, centrally located accommodations.
The luggage service was efficient and our luggage was at destination most of the time by the time we arrived, arriving by 5 pm on the two days they were not already there.
I would say the bicycles were where we weren't totally happy.
2 of us had no issues (one regular men's bike, and one women's electric), and were very happy with their bikes. We all appreciated having the front panier, the cell phone holder and the saddle bag. However, my partner's bicycle was not well fitted for him. At 6' 3", he had to be very careful not to hit his crotch on the bar every time he dismounted. His handlebars were also loose and they slid downwards every time he put his weight on them to get going. Not optimal. We tried adjusting them, but it only made the problem slightly better. For me, the bicycle was just big and heavy, but I'm used to cycling on a carbon road bike. An option for an upgrade to a lighter bicycle would have been great, as well as some mechanism to switch an ill fighting, poorly adjusted bicycle for my partner.
All in all, we definitely recommend this trip. It was well organized and good value for the money.
Dates of travel in early April, between 6° and 20°C, no rain until we got to Amsterdam.

The guides Crysta and Jack were excellent Along with the boat crew They made the trip an excellent adventure

Everything was wonderful! The cabins were really nice, with plenty of storage for our clothes, etc. The food was awesome! We had the best guide, Tammi! She was so knowledgeable about everything, and kept us safe on our bike rides. I highly recommend the Merlijn, and cannot say enough about our trip! I hope to travel with them again!!

From the moment we boarded we were treated like royalty. Everyone was friendly, professional, helpful, welcoming and they remained wonderful for our entire trip. The captain made sure our trip exceeded our expectations. Our tour leaders Chrysa and Jack made us feel like family. They were both good story tellers and made all our adventure interesting and fun. Answered our questions, met our requests with a smile and action. The food was exceptional and plentiful. All members of the ship’s team - Soritis, Georg, Alex, Dimitris, Katerina and Maria were stellar. We will always treasure this wonderful experience

The Merlijn is absolutely beautiful! The crew was top notch and made everyone feel special. The food was delicious and no one was ever left wanting . Completely exceeded expectations.

It was a great time and everything was perfect.
The crew was very accommodating and Tammy was very knowledgeable and friendly .

A very easy and relaxing ride with a lovely crew and a well-maintained boat. While I’ve done several bike and barge trips, this one doesn’t quite measure up to the others. I find this part of Italy less charming and quaint for cycling through the countryside, more pedestrian. Despite that, it was overall a great experience.

1.The biking in the Dutch countryside was great. and a highlight.
2.The riding in the city was a bit hectic and I enjoyed getting an idea of being a biking commuter. .
3.The weather was challenging at times and that is just the way it turned out for us.
4.The stop at the outdoor museum was not that much fun I would just drive by it and not stop.
5. The guides and boat crew were very nice and made it a great ride.
6.The ride was organized to move quickly even with a lot of people.

The Staff, the Food, the towns we visited were amazing. The rooms on board exceeded our expectations with amenities found in premium hotels. The reason I didn’t give 5 stars is that it’s essentially a 4 day experience with really only 3 days of cycling. IE: Day one board at 2pm with no cycling day 5 disembark at 9am with no cycling. A better description of the actual experience would be my recommendation.

It was a great trip and exactly what we hoped for. Lovely bike rides, a lot of diversity in the towns and hotels. Every thing was easy and well organized.

I wish I had asked to make sure we hit one market in the towns we stayed and visited. Also, wish that one hotel had a hot tub or spa.

An excellent trip overall!
We were lucky that the weather was perfect throughout.
Rains before our arrival made the whitewater rafting outstanding!
Clear skies made the horseback riding and volcano views amazing.
Ziplines were wonderful. Everyone enjoyed trying new experiences.

Accommodations were average but clean, and would have liked to add a day on the coast; but a great value on a wonderful trip!

It was a great family trip, our third trip with Tripsite. One of the bikes wasn't working properly, and we followed the instructions/support for adjustments. We ended up losing some time with that, but it was eventually resolved. The hotels were very good, some stretches of road were very nice, and others not so much. Upon arrival in Amsterdam, the hotel was quite far from the center, which was tiring. In short, another positive experience!

Experiencing the vibrant culture and scenery in both Argentina and Chile was truly a lifetime experience.. The itinerary was perfectly balanced. Our guide - Fulco went above and beyond to make each bike ride more memorable than the last..
Lucila,our hostess was awesome: She was so helpful, very informative and so kind.. When I needed help with arranging an in-country air flight, every detail was handled by her without hesitation.Everytime our group needed anything, she was always willing to help.. .
Jullian, was an exceptional host, who spent quality time with us, from his expert grilling skills, to arranging a relaxing day of kayaking, he did not disappoint.. His warm personality made this trip a more special one..
Tripsite is to be commended for making this trip affordable, experiential and fun..

First of all was the warm weather. This time of year, Mid to late Janurary, it is a pleasure to get away from the cold and enjoy the warth so I can one wear one layer of clothing. The people that conducted the individual tours were very knowledgeable and help enjoy the environment by giving us more information of the beautiful surroundings as we either rowed downstream in our kyacks or walked through the Monteverde cloud forest.

A beautiful bike ride. Be aware this is really a mountain biking trip. I have not done much mountain biking - I was able to do the ride but was really helpful that my husband gave me some coaching and instruction. Absolutely beautiful
scenery. Food and lodging were terrific! I’m so glad we did this trip !!!!

This was a fabulous bike tour--the scenery, the food, the guides. If you arrive in Bariloche before the tour, be sure to hike Cerra Campanario for a scenic overview of the area you will bike. Our e-bikes had fat tires and front supension which helped on the gravel roads. As we traversed many national parks, the snow-capped mountains were spectacular and the lakes so blue. Two ferry rides were highlights of the trip, It was springtime with lots of wildflowers and perfect temps for biking. Our accomodations were mostly top-notch. I can't say enough about our guides and van-driver. They provided information on history and the natural environment --saw a condor and a monkey-puzzle tree! Lunch was always a welcome stop with a table set with nutritious foods (always fresh lettuce, fruits and vegetable), chairs to sit in along a scenic river or lake! Dinners at the hotels were also delicous. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime trip.

Lukas managed to provide great guidance, historical insights and an overall enjoyable experience. Some hotels were marginal on comfort but that did not diminish our impression of a very well organized tour. We are seeking him out for our next tour to Budapest!

3 generations family time/trip. Lots of fun and great activities and in country staff. 2 of the 3 accomodations were less than desired, expecially the second. 3rd accomodation was exceptional

The trip involved spectacular scenery, wide open bike paths and roads, and small villages and cities. We did the trip in December which was cooler with fewer travelers than other times of year. Our local guide Sergio was kind, energetic, and knows the area— routes, restaurants , hotels-inside and out. I would highly recommend this trip.

This was an amazing trip that truly exceeded our expectations. Of course Macchu Pichu and the Andean Mountains were breathtaking (in more ways than one…), but equally memorable were the biking and whitewater rafting days, many amazing sites, cultural experiences and special meals. Our guide, Jesus, and driver Aurelio were truly wonderful and we felt well taken care of!

Our captain Shri, and personal chef , Ganish, were so great. As we were the only people on the tour, we felt so special. Our guide, Rahul , was flexible and considerate. The accommodations were excellent. The initial cycling out of Kochi could be worked on as we weren't used to Indian way of traffic. It all worked out and we had a fantastic trip. Loved the Kerala region.

Absolutely amazing trip and would return in a heart beat. Highly recommend and my sister is booking with you for 2026 ! First class food, and tour guides and definitely 10 out of 10 experience.

Enjoyed the variation in scenery….through small villages, along canals, through parks, kinderdikes, along dam system, beaches and fields. Enjoyed that the biking extended throughout the day, with stops for coffee and lunch. Tours through the destination towns were interesting, but most businesses were closed, except for restaurants.

The hike through the cloud forest with the very knowledgeable guide was amazing, seeing and learning about the wildlife and flora.
The hotel in San Jose (1st & last nights) was marginal compared to the others. The tour information provided while accurate was lacking in detail, particularly concerning transportation between venues. I found all the individual guides for each of the several activities great and very helpful - five stars for the guides!

The wonderful Greek people and the excellent guidance made our trip special. We've been on many guided cycling trips but none as accommodating as this. Our guide Demitris and his assistant Marias were very knowledgable and always cheerful.

Great group of folks and tour operator has lots of experience. Lodging always had hot water, wifi and was clean. Beautiful countryside.

So many memorable parts of the trip. Nomad's Path, the local guide partner, did such a great job creating the trip. We enjoy each day. Beautiful countryside, off the beaten path stops, great food and hotels. Guides were wonderful and knowledgeable. Ebikes were a joy.
