Bike to explore Amsterdam out of the center - Hew (spelling? Pronounced Hugh) was a great guide - very personable and the ride outside of the center was very much worth the time and cost. Three hours went by in a flash! Painting Graffiti and the magnet fishing was also a plus!

Wonderful Biking Tour of Amsterdam with Conny! - Our biking tour of Amsterdam with Conny was absolutely fantastic! Conny was incredibly kind, informative, and made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. She shared so many interesting stories and facts about the city that really brought the history and culture to life. What made the experience even more special was how flexible and accommodating she was—she took us to the places we specifically wanted to see and made sure the tour was tailored to our interests. Biking through the city with her felt like exploring Amsterdam with a local friend. We had such a memorable time and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Amsterdam. Thank you, Conny!

Amazing Fist Day e-Bike experience in Amsterdam. - Today my family of four had a fantastic first full day in Amsterdam. We signed up for Mike’s country-side eBike tour around Amsterdam. It was great. We saw the country-side, visited a cheese shop, saw how clogs are made and cycled across some dams, dikes and an old-fashioned windmill. It was a great way to start out European vacation. The guide was excellent and accommodating. He kept everyone safe and going at a speed that was comfortable for our small group of 12. The e-bikes were also a nice experience…… they help make your ride easier without making you dependent on the battery powered. In highly recommend the tour if your looking for something that gets you outside to enjoy the landscape and commune with a bit of old Dutch culture.

- Hugh did a great job getting our gear sorted out (thank you for the bike bag!!) and taking our small group (5 in total) throughout Amsterdam’s hidden gems. There was just the right amount of stops to learn about Amsterdam. Taking a ferry with the bikes was also a cool experience and being able to graffiti ourselves was the cherry on top! I feel the pace of the tour was perfect. Not too rushed and not dragging on. I’d highly recommend this experience!! The graffiti is impressive.

Winding through windmills - Our guide Mark filled our day with interesting details about the history of Amsterdam and beautiful scenery. A highlight of the tour was a stop to visit a working windmill. Our e-bikes fit well and we’re easy to ride. This was a great family adventure.

Amazing one-of-a-kind experience! - There are many bike tours in Amsterdam, but this one is a one-of-a-kind. The graffiti and magnet fishing experiences are of course the highlights. But the tour itself will make you feel another vibe from Amsterdam. Almost opposite to the Centrum: less touristy, more refreshing (you will enjoy smoke-free fresh air), oriented to the future, socially true and powerful. Our guide (Ashton) was great, with an immense culture and knowledge of the city, a great way to make everyone at ease, not to forget his humour.

Even my reluctant tourist teenager said this was good! - We had a fabulous tour with Mark from Mike’s bike tours, blending in the social history of Amsterdam with a range of diverse neighbourhoods. We visited the dijk village (where he grew up) and now one of the most expensive / desirable areas to live, old shipyards turned art centres - spray paint provided, the seafaring history and where the sailors widows lived, treasure yielding magnet fishing and so much more.
