AmsterBike

We did the morning e bike tour to the country and cheese farm. Oleg our guide was fantastic!! The stops were excellent with coffee in a church, beautiful country side and the best cheese I think I've ever tasted! E bikes were super easy to ride. Great adventure!

We had an incredible time on the Countryside E-bike Tour! This was probably the best activity of our entire Europe trip. It was such a memorable experience, as it was just my wife and me exploring the beautiful Dutch countryside at our own pace. The self-guided tour, with the help of an app, made navigation super easy and stress-free. Riding along the picturesque canals, lush green landscapes, and narrow dikes was truly magical. We also discovered a charming windmill, an authentic cheese farm which added a unique touch to the adventure. The combination of Amsterdam city views and the serene countryside was breathtaking. A few tips for future travellers: Be prepared for a lot of biking; while the e-bikes make it easier, you might still feel some strain on your legs. Carry plenty of water! We couldn't find a single grocery store along the route and got very thirsty. Overall, it was a fantastic, intimate experience, and we’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for an active and scenic way to explore the Netherlands!

Had an amazing time riding around the city and learning more history. The pace was great! We had 9 stopping points along the route. Our kiddos really enjoyed it as well

I was part of a group of 9 (5 of whom were in my travel party)that had a wonderful time with our guide, Rad, on the 3 hour Amsterdam City Tour by Bike [we booked it via Get Your Guide]. Rad set up each person's 3 speed bike and then explained how to use the bike and lock it using the keyed lock on the back wheel. The bikes are basic upright bikes in bright yellow and red, so they clearly stand out amongst the black bikes that most riders in Amsterdam use. He also made sure we understood the rules of the road for biking in the city. With thousands of bikes going all over the city, it is critical to understand what you are doing to ensure you are riding safely for yourself and the others around you. The ride is roughly 15km (9-10 miles) around the city. You make multiple stops and have about a 15-20 minute break about 2 hours into the journey. For our group, Rad made sure to keep us on a route that was not like the interstate or autobahn - we found ourselves on many back streets that were picturesque and not heavily congested with cars or bikes. At each stop, he made sure to share with us the history of the area, what was going on now, and some cultural discussion. Rad was very open to questions and providing answers - it did not come across as a bothersome task, but a great opportunity to interact with his guests. As it is a bike riding experience, there was not a lot of dialogue taking place as you rode - there was no "audio tour" aspect. Your journey takes you from the bikeshop at the main harbor/cruise ship terminal to the then along streets and canals to just south of the Rijks Museum. Enroute, Rad took us into the Vondelpark where we could use the water closets and have a snack and drink purchased at a food service establishment (we had snacks - should you want an awesome salad or burger, they had them but you would not have time to consume it on this journey). Your return to the bike shop has you traversing the east side of the city by the NEMO museum. Our group had a great time. The weather was blustery (by Californian standards) with a bit of rain showers thrown in - so dress or pack accordingly. We were layered up while another rider was in a skirt - everyone was dressed for the climate they were used to. At minimum, bring a windbreaker. The value for the dollar (or Euro) spent was very good - 3 hours of riding a bike, a great tour of parts of Amsterdam one might not see or know was there, insights from a local resident, and a safe ride around a city where trying to ride on your own would be likely a stressful experience if you had never been riding here before. If you are capable of riding a bike, consider this tour. It is both well worth your time and money.

I know I should have made a reservation. I was fully prepared to not get a bike at all because I had no reservation. But the attendant was certain I’d be fine on a regular bike. I showed her our route & she said it would be fine. I hesitated and said 3 times I really think I need an e bike. She just didn’t have any. I would have come another day or go to another shop, but she kept saying it would be fine, “you can do it. “ It was not fine. It was too far & too much wind. I did not enjoy it at all. I do not recommend anyone take a long day ride on a regular bike. We’re not too young, mid 50’s but fit for our age, we work out 4-5 days a week. Could we do it , yes, was it fun, no. Get an e-bike.

We did the city bike tour with them, booked through get your guide. Really enjoyed the tour. Our guide Jan took rather not too busy streets to make sure we have a smooth tour. We had a 20min break at Vondelpark. Roughly the tour was like a circle through the city, got a really lovely impression of all the most important spots, learned how new house are built, passed by the museums quarter, Anne Frank house, Jordaan quarter etc. Would have loved some more insider infos and some more stops to take pictures of the lovely houses at the canals or in the streets. But surely recommended!

Although our guide was good we were very disappointed with the check-in & management. We arrived on time & although we specifically booked for 2 children there was only 1 kid bike. Nowhere in the booking did it say that my children should be 150cm? This resulted in my one son being very upset. We were at the starting point only to find out that they had put us in the wrong tour group which we only found out by chance. We were then told they had made a mistake & she would refund us but then said she would take us to the group. We had to cycle fast to catch the group that had already left. We left 30min late and only caught up after 45min. For all this inconvenience and the fact that we missed the first stops we were offered no compensation. When asked about it they were very defensive & not willing to provide any compensation. Unacceptable customer management when we did nothing wrong! They promised to make

This was right next to our hotel and I’m glad that we hired bikes from them as it’s different experience. Specially riding around Vondelpark. Mona was great and very friendly. Bikes could do with some servicing though as one of our bikes was a bit rusty.
