5 Star Bruges to Amsterdam Tour Reviews — 1 to 30 of 296

We had a wonderful time on this bike and barge. Staff was fun and helpful. We had the best dinners I have ever eaten ~phenomenal chef on board.

Riding along the beautiful country paths, leaning about the history of the area and walking through the lovely old towns.

The most memorable part of the trip was the biking guides, fabulous!

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.

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.

Great boat. The food was exceptional, the guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. The whole staff was accommodating and dedicated.

On the first night, the captain introduced himself and followed up with the most important person on the ship.. the chef! The boat crew, guides and especially the chef did an excellent job.

Beautiful boat, great guides, responsive wonderful staff and very clearly a well run tour. I would highly recommend this tour. The bikes were well-adjusted right from the start and tour guides gave us a chance to trial a short ride the day of embarking...nice to have a choice as to longer or shorter rides each day, and lovely to have excursions to see special sites along the way.

Everything was top notch; the dinners were all superb; the service and guides were great; the accommodations were good. Travelling on a smaller barge is a more intimate experience. I used an eBike, which isn’t always necessary but when the wind dials up it certainly makes life easier.

The boat, food, and staff were all fantastic. The bikes were great- easy to use and very sturdy.

Boat was awesome and the crew was stellar ❤️. Loved riding through the Dutch countryside with a bunch of old friends and some new ones! Guides were great as well. We always felt safe and looked after!

The trip was well run, food was great the tour was amazing look at the country's.

The beautiful scenery, everything so different from the US - and in many respects, better - food, conservation, transportation.

The routes chosen were excellent!
Barge, guides & places visited exceeded expectations!

The Boat accommodations and staff were wonderful. The e-bikes performed well and freshly charged each day.
The guides and routes we took each day were wonderful. The guides were also very knowledgeable of the areas we visited.
Couldn’t have had a better trip.

This was our first bike and barge trip and we had a wonderful time. The Magnifique IV was beautiful and the crew was phenomenal. They were so friendly and they took such good care of us. The food was outstanding! Some advice I would pass on to future guests would be to bring some plastic containers from home to pack your lunch in, containers for sandwich condiments, fruit, etc. for example. We enjoyed getting to know the other passengers but we are a bit more introverted so it was nice having the small seating area in our upper deck suite for some privacy.

My husband and I had a wonderful trip aboard the Magnifique II. The crew was great and the biking was outstanding. Loads of fun!

We had a wonderful time. The combination of biking everyday and returning to our comfy accommodations on the boat was perfect.

The last two days were the most beautiful weather-wise. Loved the scenery, farms, birds, farm animals, gardens, homes, windmills. Just beautiful. The meals on board were delicious. Met some fun people. Loved our upper level rooms!

The rides and the landscape and the quaint communities were great.
The staff was super and the food was top notch.

This was an amazing trip, the boat was clean and well appointed, the crew and tour leaders were exceptional, the food was incredible and the rides each day were so lovely riding through the country side and in and out of all the little towns and bigger cities. We did the guided tour and were so happy we did. Our tour guides were informative and communicated well about what to expect each day. Our first bike/barge trip and we are hooked!

The scenery was wonderful, the guides were full of care for clients, the food was fantastic, the beds were comfortable, but the best part was the friendships formed between staff and clients throughout the journey.

The cycle pace, the scenery and the camaraderie of the guests and two guides.

Finally getting around to a review from this past summer. We had great weather, and the biking was great. We learned a lot with our guide and allowed us a different point of view as travelers. Thank you! As for the ship, it was clean and comfortable, and Emile, the chef, was amazing! He put a lot of effort into accommodating everyone's dietary needs/concerns, not to mention the food was delicious! He handled the rude customers very well, and maintained professionalism even when they were extremely unreasonable. He went above and beyond with customer service and because of him, my time onboard was fantastic. If we go again, we want to ensure he will be the chef during our tour. The other staff members were very friendly and would sit with us all and join in on the fun. It is a trip I would recommend to all my friends.

This trip fulfilled our expectations wonderfully. The guides were great, kept us moving, gave interesting history at stops along the route and always were helpful and friendly. The food was first class and the suite was fine. One suggestion - bring a Tupperware type dish to put your lunch (sandwich, cheese, olives etc) into. You’ll be very grateful you did!

This was a beautiful boat, the food was excellent and the bike guides were great. The room and bathroom were very spacious and everything was extremely clean and tidy. We really enjoyed the trip very much.

Guided evening walks through some less touristy medieval towns, including Dordrecht and Schoonhoven, gave us a more personal experience of the guild houses and legends of centuries ago. Be open-minded to making new friends and make sure you carry a few euros with you as restroom facilities can come at a small price.

Great biking holiday ! This was our first but will not be our last the boat accommodations bikes and routes where exceptional!. We went in late September early Oct and you will want to bring layered clothing as it was usually cooler in morning but warmed up late morning. Overall great experience and holiday.

The most memorable part for me was meeting great people. The food and the sights were amazing also.
