Holland offers 33,000 kms of well maintained and clearly signposted cycle paths making it an ideal choice for a leisure cycling holiday. The lack of hills is of course another big plus for many leisure cyclists, as is the country's unique scenery of dykes, waterways and windmills. Many visit in the springtime to witness the kaleidoscopic tulip fields around Amsterdam.
Holland loves cyclists! Come and enjoy this flat, bike-friendly country, famed for its iconic polder landscapes, amazing cycle-path network and friendly, easy-going people.
In springtime, the countryside bursts into colour as tulip fields stretch in endless rows of red, yellow, and purple. A visit to the world-famous Keukenhof flower gardens is a seasonal highlight, where cyclists can pause to wander through millions of blooming bulbs.
Riding through the quintessential Dutch polder landscape is a peaceful pleasure—where wide skies, canals, and historic windmills form a timeless backdrop. Well-marked cycle paths wind alongside dykes and through tranquil farmland, offering an intimate glimpse into the Netherlands’ harmonious relationship with water and land.
A bike and boat holiday is a particularly relaxing way to explore. Drift along canals and rivers aboard a comfortable barge, then hop off to cycle through picturesque villages, historic towns, and serene countryside, all while your floating hotel moves ahead to greet you at the next stop.
For those seeking coastal adventure, a bike and sail holiday around the Wadden Sea Islands is unforgettable. Explore Texel, Terschelling, and other sandy, windswept isles, cycling through dunes and along beaches—an ideal mix of exploration, nature, and Dutch maritime charm.
Our easy cycling holidays offer short daily rides on mostly level terrain. A typical day’s ride will take 2 – 3 hours at a leisurely pace and the remainder of the day will be free for you to explore further or simply relax. These rides are particularly recommended for newcomers to cycling holidays and for families.
Our leisurely cycle holidays will suit those who are reasonably fit through regular exercise of one kind or another – not necessarily cycling. On the whole, the terrain will be level but there may also be a few small hills to contend with along the way too. Daily rides will typically take around 3 – 4 hours to complete.
Our moderate cycle holidays are for regular cyclists, who are used to longer rides with regular climbs. A good level of fitness is needed and you can expect to be in the saddle for between 4 and 5 hours each day.
These holidays are for seasoned cyclists who cycle long distances regularly and who enjoy the thrill of long days in the saddle. There will undoubtedly be some challenging climbs along the way and you can expect to cover between 55 and 75 miles each day.
