Escape the city and experience the true Dutch countryside on this relaxed, small-group e-bike tour through Waterland. Just beyond Amsterdam lies a peaceful world of winding canals, grazing sheep, wooden bridges, and charming villages that feel untouched by time.
Your journey begins at our shop near Central Station. After a short ferry ride across the IJ, we leave the urban buzz behind and ride into the wide-open polder landscape of North Holland. With the smooth assistance of a premium e-bike, even long stretches are easy and enjoyable, perfect for confident riders looking to explore more.
We’ll follow quiet country roads and ride alongside traditional dikes (levies), the iconic Dutch water barriers that protect the land from flooding. The route takes us through lush green fields, past canals and farms, and into the postcard-perfect villages of Broek in Waterland and Monnickendam. Expect charming wooden houses, peaceful harbours, and narrow streets with centuries of history.
Along the way, we stop at a traditional cheese and clog farm, where you’ll see how these local icons are made and taste some delicious farm-fresh cheese. We also visit a working windmill, a rare chance to get up close to this timeless Dutch symbol.
Your local guide will share stories of how the Dutch shaped this unique region through clever water management, engineering, and rural traditions. You’ll get great photo opportunities, engaging history, and an authentic taste of Dutch life just outside the city.
