About this experience

Exploring Amsterdam by bike is an essential experience — the city was built for cycling, and there’s no better way to discover it like a local.

While walking lets you see much of the city, the bike tour takes you further, reaching those hidden corners and authentic neighborhoods that are harder to explore on foot. Always safely, using the city’s extensive network of bike lanes and away from the busiest tourist areas, this experience is both fun and comfortable.

During this 2.5-hour guided bike tour, you’ll pedal through some of the city’s most iconic and picturesque areas: Vondelpark, the Jordaan, the world-famous Canal Ring, De 9 Straatjes, and Central Station. You’ll also ride past landmarks like the NEMO Science Museum, the Rijksmuseum, and the Van Gogh Museum. Along the way, your expert guide will share the stories, curiosities, and secrets that make Amsterdam one of the most fascinating cities in Europe.

After the tour, you can keep your bike for as long as you like — just ask your guide about the rates and conditions at the start or end of the tour.

Hop on your bike and discover the real Amsterdam — it’s not just sightseeing, it’s an adventure on two wheels you’ll never forget!
