5 Star Mare fan Fryslân boat/barge tour reviews — 1 to 9 of 9

I enjoyed the experience of being on the boat and days of cycling. It was a nice size group of 22 so that you could get to know others. The crew were fantastic. We nailed the time of season for the tulips. The parade and gardens were stunning

Visiting The Netherlands with my sister, as well as with the Tripsite founder, Hennie, made the trip extra-special. Hennie and her team shared many details of the areas we traveled through, which was greatly appreciated. The weather was perfect for cycling and sailing, both of which were enjoyed very much. The flowers are not to be missed: the flower parade - Keukenhof Gardens - acres of color throughout the countryside. The villages we passed through were lovely, as were the people we met. It was all wonderful! Thank you!

I’m a senior solo traveler and I found the group so warm and welcoming, even giving me a wonderful party with all the frills on my ‘special birthday’. The added bonus was having Hennie with us, telling us all kinds of wonderful stories about life and traditions in the Netherlands.
Our biking leader seemed always in a rush to get to the next stop. It would have been nice to enjoy the beauty of life in the many small towns we passed through or to learn a little about them. On the other bike trips I’ve taken the leader was also a guide ready to share lots of local information.

The people - the Food - the boat.

Even MORE sailing time would be even better! :-)

I loved seeing The Netherlands by boat. After all it's a country surrounded by and defined by water. With the tulips in bloom, it was a perfect time to learn the history and experience so many towns. The cuisine and beer are a terrific part of the immersion into a Dutch life.

The sailing experience
I would take another trip with the company in a heartbeat!

The boat and crew in the Netherlands were wonderful. All my trips with tripsite have been great. I never hesitate going on another one.

Our guide was not very interesting or informative.

The Wadden (Frisian) Sea Netherlands sail/bike trip was tops. From the initial greet to the end of trip farewell to "old friends", my only recommendation for improvement could only be that one uncontrollable element - weather. Most days were punctuated with moisture but this did little to dampen the spirits of all who took advantage of this wonderful excursion.
