Amsterdam – Bruges

In Amsterdam you start form the home port of the Feniks. In Spring you visit the tulip and other flower bulb fields. You will cross the Dutch Estuary with its Deltaworks, take the barge to cross the Westerschelde and after a visit to Ghent you arrive in Bruges. The famous city well known for the Belgian chocolate, beers and lace.

The countryside is flat as far as the eye can see. Polders, water and old villages and cities. Daily average of 45 Km or 4 to max. 5 hrs. by bike.

This is a one week tour only done in Spring. Many of our guests continue this tour from Bruges to Paris, thus making it a three week tour.
