Cycling is ingrained in the Dutch culture and the well-maintained cycle paths are always busy with local commuters, shoppers, school children and even trades-people happily pedalling along.
With very few exceptions, you can be sure that a cycle ride through the Dutch countryside will be on level terrain. The world's best network of cycle paths will take you almost anywhere in Holland and there are a myriad of wonderful itineraries leading you through the unique polder landscape of green fields, dykes, canals and windmills to historic Dutch cities such as Edam, Delft, Gouda and of course Amsterdam.
In the springtime, the Tulip Fields to the west of Amsterdam erupt into an explosion of colour and one of the best ways to witness this spectacular Dutch phenomenon is from the saddle of a bicycle. We offer a range of Tulip cycle breaks where the main focus is the bulb fields.
The extensive network of canals and waterways in the Netherlands gave birth to a new genre of cycling holiday, the bike and boat holiday. On these tours you’ll join a barge or river cruiser in Amsterdam and embark on a 7-night cruise along the Dutch waterways. Each day you’ll alight somewhere new to pedal through iconic polder scenery to gorgeous old towns and villages.
",3993,834,'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 iconic "polder" scenery of dykes, waterways and windmills. Many visit in the springtime to witness the kaleidoscopic tulip fields around Amsterdam.

If you’ve ever wanted to witness the amazing carpets of colour created by millions of tulips grown for the world-wide flower trade then this is the tour for you.
Cycling through the polder landscape
Each spring, usually between the beginning of April and mid May, the extensive bulb fields between Haarlem and Leiden to the west of Amsterdam burst into life. Being a natural phenomenon, it’s hard to say exactly when they will be at their absolute best but travel during this period and the chances are good that you’ll be rewarded.
You’ll spend your first night in Amsterdam where you can enjoy the many sights and attractions this unique and friendly city has to offer. Take a canal tour and learn about the tall narrow merchants’ houses that typify the historic old town. Take in some old masters works at the Rijksmuseum and Van Gough Museum. Of course there is also the moving Anne Frank Museum and the pleasure of simply wondering the network of charming canal-lined streets.
The next day you set off on the bikes following a network of well-maintained cycle paths out into the countryside. Before long you’ll see your first tulip fields and from there on you are surrounded by seas of colour. You’ll spend a night in the delightful old town of Haarlem before heading south, through more tulip fields, to the Keukenhof Flower Gardens. Allow plenty of time for your visit as there are 32 hectares of carefully manicured gardens supporting seven million tulips, daffodils and hyacinths. You spend the night in the bustling university town of Leiden before wending your way back to Amsterdam along the Amstel River for your final night in the old city.
The cycling is flat and on well-marked cycle paths. As such, this holiday is graded easy and can be enjoyed by anyone with a basic level of fitness. E-bikes are also available for anyone who feels they might need a little assistance.
