5 Star Belgium Tour Reviews — 1 to 30 of 871

Meeting new people from different places, and the Crew was amazing!

A sensational trip with a perfect itinerary – highlighted by the Kinderdijk windmills – delicious food, a comfortable boat, and well-prepared guides and staff, especially our guide Anna and the barmaid Violet!!

The Netherlands was absolutely a beautiful place to bike through, we had a wonderful staff to take care of us and the other people on the trip quickly became friends.

Great trip. Not very many recommendations. Tour guide was great and staff on the boat very professional and great. Easy fix to one suggestion - bikes did not have water cages - they all should! The weather was moderate the week we went so it was comfortable on the boat, I was happy there was not a heatwave that week bc I would have been worried about the temperature on the boat. I really, really liked the trip!

The Dutch countryside and cities. The people who participated in the trip the staff which took which took very good care of us.

We just returned from the Amsterdam to Bruges bike-and-boat tour, and it exceeded every expectation.

The entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. The crew and guides were outstanding—friendly, professional, and genuinely focused on making sure every guest had an amazing time. The service aboard the boat was first-class, yet relaxed and welcoming.

The boat itself was fantastic: comfortable cabins, beautiful common areas, and the perfect place to unwind after each day’s ride. The food was another highlight. Every meal was delicious and thoughtfully prepared, and we looked forward to dinner every evening.

The cycling was exactly what we hoped for. The routes were scenic, well planned, and mostly on incredible bike paths through charming villages, canals, farmland, and historic towns. The bikes were high quality, comfortable, and well maintained, making the rides enjoyable for cyclists of all abilities. The itinerary struck a great balance between riding and exploring.

One of our favorite parts of each day was stopping in small Belgian and Dutch towns for a beer and a cone of fresh frites before continuing on. Those little moments made the trip feel authentic and unhurried.

If you’re considering a European bike-and-boat vacation, this is an easy recommendation. Beautiful scenery, outstanding staff, excellent food, great bikes, a wonderful boat, and an itinerary that lets you experience the Netherlands and Belgium at the perfect pace. We’d book another Tripsite tour without hesitation.

A glorious tour on an amazing ship with super awesome comfy bikes. Can't say enough about the food, staff, scenery, plus there was a festival in every town in Belgium the week we were there which only added to the fun. Thanks to all the staff for giving us a fantastic week!

I like that they offered a short ride and a longer ride each day. The food of the boat was incredible. The assistance offered by tripsite.com was very good

The terrific barge is owned by a Dutch family and the entire crew was Dutch. That was a plus, they were all excellent and perhaps this factor brought in several other English speaking mountain, e.g. UK, New Zealand and Australia.. This trip surpassed our expectations!

Our bike tour guides, Brian and Diede, were incredible - we learned so much about the local culture, saw beautiful scenery including lush farmland, quaint villages and bustling cities. Daily briefings prepared us for what was to come and gave us an opportunity to ask questions. I am not an experienced cyclist but with the guides assistance I was quickly comfortable riding with the group and so enjoyed every moment. The boat and our suite were clean and comfortable, the crew was very friendly and helpful, there were always healthy food options and delicious meals. Instead of riding a bike, if one wanted to stay on the boat and watch the beautiful scenery go by, read a book, write in a journal, etc., that was always an option. This trip is a memory I will treasure forever.

A fantastic trip! Incredible views! Easy to navigate using the app. Beautiful hotels with excellent service! I loved it—a great first experience!

Wonderful experience! Everyone on board was courteous and helpful. Tour guides kept us well informed.

The mountain rides and time next to the Rur River were absolutely amazing! Even during an unexpected heatwave we found relief in the shady mountains and cool river.

The trip on Magnifique IV was a great and memorable experience. The crew and tour guides couldn't have done a better job of managing our group and the record setting heat of the first three days of our trip. The boat accommodations were comfortable with a surprisingly large bathroom. The food prepared for us by chef Doychen was nothing short of fantastic.
Overall, the value for the expense exceeded my expectations.

The tour guides were awesome and the boat was fantastic. I was not expecting an executive chef to feed us each day. This was a great vacation where I didn't have to worry about one thing. The crew of the Magnifique IV pampered us, and they were very friendly.
The bike riding was my favorite part and seeing the countryside of both countries.

Great staff, great food, and most importantly great people. The best part of tours like this are the people that you meet from all over the world. This is my second boat and cycle trip, and both times I have created lasting connections with others on the tour. I will definitely be doing another similar tour in another new location down the road.

The cycling was phenomenal: beautiful scenery, wonderful paved designated cycling paths. Our guides were friendly, experienced, just excellent. Our boat, the Magnifique X was beautiful and very comfortable and the excellent staff prepared delicious food and took great care of us.
Definitely one of our best bike and boat trips - this was #9! Hopefully more to come!

The cycling infrastructure was fabulous. It was lovely to be able to ride through differing landscapes, not only along the coastline but further inland where we could enjoy the farms and their beautiful gardens and canals. We upgraded our accommodations and they were beautiful, particularly our hotel in Gouda. Our e-bikes were also a lot of fun. In the past, we usually chose to ride with normal bikes, but the e-bikes allowed us to get to our destination earlier so that we could explore. This is our fourth tour with Tripsite and we love planning with them as they are always very supportive and flexible. Thank you for an amazing trip.

Excellent accommodations. Food was elegant. Staff professional and kind

This was our 5th Tripsite experience!
We loved Bruges to Amsterdam!
The scenery was great because the bike trails offered that. The people we encountered in Holland & Bruges were all very friendly & informative if we had any questions.
I celebrated my 70th birthday the last day of our trip in Amsterdam! A great way to enter my 70th year! We are looking forward to planning our next trip with Tripsite … they have never failed with any of our beautiful bike trip experiences!

Trip was wonderful. Tour guides and the staff on the Fluvius were excellent. Unfortunate part was the AC on the ship was not functioning.

The route was absolutely beautiful and the pace was excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful, accommodation was clean and comfortable, and the meals are very good.

Experiencing the awesome cycling infrastructure in both Belgium and the Netherlands.

We had a couple of picnics out in the countryside in wonderful spots. Sometimes you can find a nice picnic table in a perfect spot. We would go to a grocery store before leaving and pick up a baguette and snacks. It was wonderful. There are also cafes and restaurants on the way for other days.

Everything on his trip was wonderful! The boat was the best one we have been on, the cabins were large and they had sliding doors that opened to the river, the food was gourmet quality. The rides took us to wonderful cities which we walked through and toured from canal boats. The scenery was delightful and changing every day from river views to farmland and small towns. When we got to Paris one of the guides stayed there and was so helpful in getting us to the places we wanted to see.Like our own personal concierge.

The trip was well organized. The tour guides weee knowledgeable and fun. The food on board the ship was much better than expected. Bike ride wa fantastic.

Unusual and excellent itinerary starting in Amsterdam and ending in Paris. Beautiful barge with lovely accommodations and amazing, stunningly presented food. Nice group size.

Loved riding through the country side, so pretty & green. One of my favorite things was stopping at the strawberry vending machine. Our guides were wonderful and I was so happy they had extra e-bikes on the boat as we had a couple of folks that struggled in the rain and wind the first couple of days and they, and the rest of us too, enjoyed the remainder of the trip not riding 6mph. We had some rain everyday but looking back I think it was better than having full sun the entire time.

We had a great crew, they worked tirelessly to ensure everything flowed smoothly. Our guide Miko went above and beyond to make sure everyone was taken care of. His knowledge of the Netherlands and Belgium made the trip even more enjoyable. I would have liked a little warmer and drier weather, but it did warm up in the latter half of the trip.
