Description

Discover the beauty of Amsterdam and the surrounding countryside by bike. Cycle along the Amstel River, taking in views of the Skinny Bridge, the BlauwBrug, and the locks regulating the level of the water. Ride past historic houses that reflect the early town's prosperity. On this 3-hour tour you’ll start at the harbor with the most beautiful view of the IJ River. You'll ride through the east of Amsterdam passing the 17th century Dutch East Company ship, heading to the Amstel River. Along the way you’ll see several famous landmarks, including the iconic windmill. Outside the city, in the middle of the Dutch polder, you’ll stop at a 15th-century farm that specializes in making cheese and clogs. You’ll find it hard to believe that the farm and windmills are such a short distance from the city. After the farm visit you’ll cycle back to central Amsterdam.
