Celebrating a milestone birthday with 40+ old and new friends on the trip!
Only downside for me was the cycling groups were too large and having inexperienced riders in these large groups made for some issues at times.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Our tour guides and staff on the ship were fabulous. Our ship had mechanical issues including air condition failure, generator failure, ice machine failure and generator failure. The ship waived the fuel surcharge to compensate but I was glad I was on an upper deck with a window.

It was everything Tripsite said it would be. We were very happy with our tour guide, Rene, who was very involved in keeping track of everyone. All the advance information Tripsite provided about the GPS tracks, country biking laws, weather, etc was very helpful. The ship, De Holland, was clean and well run, helpful staff, and the captain had a playful attitude. However, many of us got tired of the same cold cut sandwich fixings for lunch. We got rained on at least 3 days, and it was colder than usual, so be prepared with good rain gear.

Beautiful scenery , routes and excellent coffee stops. Peter and Hans were excellent tour guides, chef Liam was outstanding and the support staff were great. Only suggestions would be to improve the quality of the bikes and a few more snacks after the rides . Pack gloves for your rides especially on fall trips
All in all our favorite bike trip

- I was understanding that the kms we would ride would be around on average 30-40 kms. But many days were over 65kms which made for a more rushed experience.

Staff were great and worked very hard for all of us during the week. Unfortunately strong winds kept us docked for a day so we lost a day riding north as planned and caused other changes in the itinerary which apparently is not common but can happen. Food was very good and enjoyable to meet others from other countries during social hours.

The bike riding was the most enjoyable part for me. The ride to Amsterdam was great. As was the stop by the beach on the way to Veere. Our Guide, Mike was so kind to provide us with evening tours in the beautiful small dutch towns. our chef Paolo was great with delicious dinners each evening. And the captain Paul was excellent and added a touch of humor to the trip.

- It was easy just like the description. But I am an experienced biker so I would have enjoyed going faster. But there were a few people who were not fully capable with the use of an E-bike and that slowed us down.

The ship and crew were top notch!! Wonderful experience. Our chef, Steven, came out at breakfast asking us for our meal choice that evening. He was an excellent cook. Gourmet food. Beautiful presentation and delicious. So nice being on smaller ship with only 35 passengers. The owner was our captain the last 5 days of the cruise. Very hospitable. Would highly recommend.
