“This experience was a fantastic way to spend some time out in the countryside. Shakira was our guide and she was lovely! We had a rather big group and even with a mishap of one of the participants getting a flat tire, she made sure everything ran smoothly. We went at the end of December so it was definitely cold but bearable. Make sure you have good gloves and proper winter clothing if you go on this tour (or come to Amsterdam) during the winter. Highly recommend this experience.”

“Hahaha. Omg. Biking in Amsterdam…everyone bikes in Amsterdam. We had been in the city two days prior to renting our bikes. Two days and not once did we see any sort of mishap, until we rented bikes. My husband and I were with our adult daughters and decided to join the masses. We rented bikes from Discount Bike Rental, which is associated with A-Bike Rental & Tours. As a matter of fact, this address for Discount Bike Rentals was provided as one of four places we could rent our bikes. This came as somewhat of a surprise to Kino, the employee at DBR, but that didn’t stop him from treating…”

“Excellent bike ride through both the city and countryside. E bikes were great. We did about 45k. The paths are all paved and dedicated to bikes only. Our guide Petra very well informed and a joy to speak with. We had lunch with her. This was the busiest time in the last 10 years in Amsterdam and Petra got us all safely through the traffic during Sail Week. She made it so fun. She should get hazard pay for the job she did!!! The location of the shop was a little hard to find but the trip was excellent. Lots of sights to see including working wind mill. The Miller…”
