There is nothing quite like cycling through Belgium with its contrasting landscape of flatlands in Flanders and rolling hills in French speaking Wallonia. It is a biking lover's dream. Belgium has miles of bicycle paths along romantic canals winding between quaint towns, charming castles, outdoor cafés and incredible restaurants. |

This bike & barge holiday combines the countries of Belgium and the Netherlands in a very surprising and attractive way. In eight days you will cycle from Brussels to Amsterdam. On your arrival day the barge stays in Mechelen, which is about 20 minutes by train from Brussels. The next day you have time to visit the beautiful Belgian capital of Brussels.The Flemish port town of Antwerp is one of the highlights of this tour. Belgium is famous for it’s tasty beers. They say you don’t really know Belgium without tasting some!
Crossing the Dutch border you reach the well preserved fortified town of Willemstad. In the old town of
’s Hertogenbosch, the St. Jans cathedral is certainly worth a visit. Across Holland's fruit garden, the Betuwe, and along the rivers Vecht and Amstel you cycle to Amsterdam.
Standing at the Dam Square in Amsterdam the Market Square in Brussels seems miles away!
