I enjoyed the Island of Ven the most. Additionally I enjoyed the ride at Helsingborg and some of the seaside villages. The weather on this trip was rough. The 35 mph wind and rain had a "feel like" temperature of 35 degrees- 45 degrees. I had appropriate clothing for this journey but had I know the weather would be those conditions I would not have booked it. Along some other routes the scenery was not nearly as interesting as other places I have been in terms of countryside. This was my first bike and barge trip and I don't think I would book another. The crew were kind and did a great job. I enjoyed both guides and the hospitality staff. I cannot blame the weather on them or the variability of the scenery.

This was our 5th Bike/Boat tour, and the weather on this trip was the most challenging, ever. Even at the end of May, the winds from the coast make the 'feels like' temps as low as 34 in the morning. We also had rain almost every day, but if you take the right waterproof/windproof gear with thermals, its tolerable. The scenery on this trip is lovely, but in our opinion, not nearly as nice at the Netherlands or Danube tours. Lots of open field/farm land and less villages. Only had evening city walks in 2 places, which was disappointing. Fellow passengers were well-travelled and friendly seasoned cyclists. Will review the "Atlantis" boat separately

Biking was amazing, even in the wind, rain, and cloud. The trips were well planned, the tour leaders were helpful and experienced. Best part….all the fun people we met!
