Windmills, Cheese & Countryside Electric Bike Tour

Amsterdam

Summary

Small group tour - Max 10 participants A short ferry ride and an easy cycle through the north of the city and we’ll reach the Waterlands, the countryside just outside of Amsterdam. Soon it’s cows and farmers’ signs offering up freshly made ice cream or milk. We'll discuss water and land management, see an old-school windmill, explain why the Dutch are so bike-crazed, and how they used these paths during the Second World War in search of the goods they needed to survive. There will be plenty of photo opportunities along the way as we cruise through a few villages and stop to take it all in. Because the Netherlands is relatively flat, one does not need to be in top shape to partake and the electric bike makes it a breeze. We'll spend most of our time outside the city for a relaxed cycle journey.
