The Netherlands is not only a land of windmills and Tulips, if you still think so. It is also a quaint and quiet coastal nation along the North Sea. The Netherlands is a nation with a rich cycling history and you’re likely to spot countless Dutch going about their daily business on two wheels. Dotting the flat land are picturesque windmills, small villages, the Dutch Dunes, an intricate canal system, and in the spring endless rows of colorful tulips – this is, after all, the tulip capital of the world.

Cycling Holiday Holland


Do you want to see the Netherlands? Do you like cycling? Then why not explore the Netherlands the Dutch way: With comfortable pedelecs and at your own pace?
An extensive network of cycle paths takes you all over the country, often along routes closed to other traffic. From the popular touristic highlights to hidden gems, there is plenty to see and do. And – Holland is flat, so everybody can enjoy the unique Dutch cycling experience.

The most important thing about any Dutch Pedelec cycling tour is getting to know the amazing benefits of traveling by pedelec. Pedaling through the countryside, you’ll be intimately connected to the landscape, your senses fully engaged in the experience. The sights, sounds, and smells of the environment, the unique and delectable taste of seasonal specialties, and interactions with local people lead to true understanding and full-bodied memories that last a lifetime. And that’s all possible with the perfect pedelec, a comfortable Flyer pedelec.

If you are planning a self-guided tour we can provide everything what’s needed. Just tell us how many miles you’d like to ride per day and what your interests are.
Based on that we propose you an itinerary with which you proceed to book your accommodation.
Once that’s done we adjust your routes to start and finish at the by you provided addresses.

Tip! You can also rent a bicycle bearer for your car for two bikes if you are doing a tour by car.

If instead you are thinking on having a great ride and get back to your hotel, let us suggest you where to go. We’ll design a route that starts and finishes at the door of your hotel which takes you to places you wouldn’t find otherwise.
Scenic and safe, these are our premises when plotting your routes.
