Step by Step

Cycle through the beautiful streets of Amsterdam, skirting its canals and visiting the capital’s historic sites, on this guided tour lasting approximately three hours.

A professional guide specialising in history will tell you the story of must-see destinations, including:

  • Westerkerk: this 85-metre-high Protestant church, founded in 1620, has hosted several important royal weddings
  • The Jordaan district: to the west of the historic city centre lies this prestigious neighbourhood, the cultural and gastronomic heart of the area, on the banks of the classic Dutch canals
  • Royal Palace: this imposing castle served as the town hall until it became the royal palace of Louis I of Holland, brother of Napoleon Bonaparte, during the Dutch Golden Age
  • Muziekgebouw Concert Hall: regarded as one of the world’s finest concert halls, it hosts musical performances with stunning acoustics for the audience

This cycle tour will take you through Amsterdam’s busiest alleyways, bridges and parks, where locals go about their daily cultural and social lives. You can park your bike and take a stroll through Vondelpark, the city’s most popular park.

This 47-hectare park, the largest in the area, is ideal for relaxing, sunbathing and lying on the grass to enjoy a snack, whilst soaking up the Dutch vibe surrounded by nature and landmarks such as the sculpture by Pablo Picasso.

    It was a lot of fun and very tidy. We were a small group from different countries, so we were able to make new friends and had an amazing time.

    Everything was very well organised, I can't complain! I went with my boyfriend and we had a great time. It's a different and fun way to get to know the city.
