Description

Head to the beautiful harbor of Volendam, which is only 30 minutes away from Amsterdam. In the harbor the rental shop is located, from where you can pick up your Bike. After a short registration procedure (no deposits needed!) the bike will be handed out to you. The expert staff will make sure you know how to work your chosen vehicle and let you ride on it first to make sure you are comfortable with it and know how it works. SAFETY BECOMES FIRST! Before we send you off on your way we will make sure you have exactly the right vehicle for your comfort. If you feel you need to bike with a helmet, just let us know and we will make sure you have one. Before you start you will receive a map with the most interesting routes with an extensive explanation about all the highlights and most entertaining stops. These routes can also be followed digitally (via QRcode) on your phone in Google Maps. Possible routes are: Volendam-Katwoude-Monnickendam-Marken-Volendam (21kms) Volendam-Edam-Katwoude-Monnickendam-Hemmeland-Volendam (24kms) Volendam-Katwoude-Monnickendam-Zuiderwoude-Broek in Waterland-Volendam (27kms) Depending on the route of your choice you can visit the beautiful towns in the surroundings of Volendam. For example Monnickendam, which is only a 30-minute bike ride away from Volendam. When going through the old city centre of Monnickendam it feels like you have gone back in time. In Monnickendam are a number of good restaurants where you can have a drink or a bite before you continue your bike ride. From Monnickendam the bike ride can be continued either going to Marken or to the typical old-Dutch villages of Zuiderwoude and Broek in Waterland. Marken is a former-island, since 1957 connected by a 10km-long dike with the main land. The village of Marken feels like a fairy-tail. The most attractive wooden-houses, build on poles to be protected to high waters, characteristic alleys, bridges and a 450 year-old church. Also when on your bike it is most recommended to bike to the light house. Also Zuiderwoude and Broek-in-Waterland (Broek) are recommended to visit. Really special old-Dutch villages, where Broek is even in the Top 10 of most beautiful villages of the Netherlands. The best way to explore these villages is to park your bike and wander around by foot to not miss any details and make the most beautiful pictures. Also Edam is a must-visit. Only 20 minss by bike you will enter Edam, an almost 800 year old town north of Volendam. Edam is famous for its peaceful narrow alleys and small canals, the beautiful façades of the cosy houses, and the unique small boutiques. Also Edam is known for its cheese market where visitors can both taste and purchase various cheeses (only in July and August). Do you need support or have questions when you are on your way? Fear not as the rental is just a phone call away. The office is ready to answer any questions or offer support with anything you may need.
