A-Bike Rental & Tours - Vondelpark , Tesselschadestraat 1E, 1054 ET Amsterdam, Netherlands
Open in Google Maps

The meeting point is only a 3-minute walk away from Leidseplein (easy to reach by tram). We start at the bike shop of our partner A-Bike next to the entrance of Vondelpark and Marriot Hotel. We hope to meet you there!

This activity will end right where it started.
Greet your guide at a central Amsterdam location and receive a short safety briefing before climbing onto your state-of-the-art cycle. Set out at a leisurely pace, following your guide along part of Amsterdam’s 250-mile (400-km) network of bicycle lanes.

Receive an insightful introduction to the Dutch capital as you visit an eclectic selection of prominent landmarks and cultural secrets; depending on your guide and the weather, expect an itinerary that features top sights like Museum Square, home to iconic institution, the Van Gogh Museum.

Hear of the country’s liberal laws that legalize marijuana and prostitution and cruise past popular nightclubs on your way to Vondelpark, a green oasis in the heart of the city. 

Discover the attractive Jordaan district or uncover the tragic history of Anne Frank as you visit her perfectly preserved house. Before your tour concludes, enjoy a refreshing drink (own expense) in one of your guide’s favorite hangouts and then return to the original departure point, where the tour concludes.

Stellar - the best way to see Amsterdam
Sonja_I
, Jul 2022
Our guide (Kelsey?) was wonderful and her ex-pat perspective really helped us understand the city (meaning, she already knew in advance what would seem the most interesting cultural/living differences to Americans). Her love of Amsterdam really came through. There is no better way to know Amsterdam, I have decided, than to compete for road space with the citizens of Amsterdam and the odd grumpy trash truck driver. After this tour, we knew exactly what we wanted to circle back to see in our remaining time there. Long live the Omafiets!!

The cycle tour guide was extremely knowledgable and friendly. Kept us all safe on a busy Easter weekend in Amsterdam. It was a little chaotic in the shop when we arrived and the tour started 25 mins later than we expected. All in all a good experience.
