Meet your guide in the heart of the city and set off cycling alongside Amsterdam's iconic canals. Discover more about the history of the city as you stop by some of the key points of interest including the Singel Canal, bustling Centraal Station, the Rijksmuseum, and the Van Gogh Museum.

Get away from the hordes of crowds of the downtown areas and ride through the trendy local neighborhoods of Jordaan and De Pijp. Enjoy several stops along the way to discover local secrets away from the usual tourist attractions.

Pause at some of the most picturesque locations in the city including the Windmill de Gooyer, Hortus Botanicus, and the Skinny Bridge that crosses the River Amstel. Throughout the tour your guide can also provide the top local recommendations to make the most of your stay in the city.

Excellent tour, my guide was Agustin, who was very patient with me since I hadn't ridden a bicycle in a long time. Lots of information and a great tour of the city. Highly recommended!

I would have expected more guidance from/to attractions. This was more of a bike ride around the outskirts of the city. The boat ride that was purchased started long after the bike ride ended (1.5h later), which made the whole activity take much longer than expected. In addition, it got dark before the boat trip started and we couldn't see as much of the canal trip as we had hoped.

Very good tour. The group was small, so the guide (I don't remember his name, but he was an artist and half from the Netherlands and half from Spain) was able to teach us in a personalized way how to use the fixed gear bikes and was always concerned about us. You get a beautiful view of Amsterdam as the locals do, accompanied by the guide's useful and precise comments. 100% recommended the tour.

Overall tour was good. This is my second time doing a bike tour in Amsterdam (different company). Stated 2.5 hours but we only did 2. I would suggest a stop along the way for a bathroom break or snack (likely the park). The tour company was punctual and very friendly. We also did the countryside tour with them.

Ruben was an excellent guide! He was both knowledgeable and excited about the city history. He waited anytime someone got stuck behind because of a red light. When a chain fell off one of the bikes and one bike got a flat tire, he quickly addressed both situations. The bikes were very comfortable and I didn’t have any issues with mine. It was a beautiful day in a beautiful city for a great ride.
