She’ll take you around the myriad paths of the area, and she seems to have an instinct for the fields that may have “just bloomed overnight”. Your guide (typically Rebecca) will ensure you know the road rules, the way to operate the bike, and the etiquette around the fields. Wheely Dutch Bike Tours owns their own bikes and they are high quality. She’s also passionate and knowledgeable about the flower industry of The Netherlands, and we learned so much from her. She’s a super keen cyclist, having spent two tears riding from Amsterdam to New Zealand via Asia. While my partner and I booked a group cycling tour from Amsterdam to the tulip fields, we were fortunate to have no others with us, so we had a private tour with Rebecca! Having said that, I’m sure if we were with others, Rebecca would have been just as awesome. Again, an amazing experience and we want to do it again - thank you Rebecca! ![]() We were provided city cruisers which are great for that or a day trip, but made a few of us a bit sore for the week of longer rides. ![]() If there's one thing i might try do differently it would be to secure bikes designed more for touring. Meetings to start up and then drop off at the end were easy, and she even assisted us with a transfer to a remote hotel outside of Amsterdam afterwards. The accommodations she arranged for us were good and allowed easy access to the towns we visited. ![]() We felt like our experience was off the beaten track and a terrific way to experience the country and it's people. Our rides averaged 35-40 km per day, and without a doubt the paths Rebecca "led" us along via the GPS track were really enjoyable. Rebecca is amazing really, she patiently worked with us to develop the daily itinerary which included 5 riding days with 2 rest days interspersed to allow foot exploration in two of the cities we stopped in. Meant to get to this review for a while and got busy! Summer of 2019 Rebecca assisted my family including children aged 12 and 10 to arrange a week long self-guided bike tour.
