You will ride on flat and well-maintained bike paths throughout the tour.

Embarkation and check-in in Amsterdam city center at 2 pm, where the crew will welcome you on board. Once all guests are on board, you will head towards Zaandam, known for its charming windmills. Here the ship docks in the city center and you can take a short test tour of the area by bicycle. In the evening you will have the opportunity to take a short city walk through the picturesque city center of Zaandam.

After breakfast, a short bike ride of about 5 km to the open-air museum "Zaanse Schans" is on the program, where you can discover beautiful windmills, an old Dutch village with traditional wooden houses, a cheese dairy and a clog maker. In the afternoon you have the following program points to choose from: You can either cycle (about 22 km) to Haarlem or take it easy, stay aboard the ship and enjoy the scenery gliding by during the approximately two-and-a-half-hour cruise. Once in Haarlem, visit the historic Old Town with the "Grote Markt" and the imposing St. Haarlem Bavo Church. Your ship is moored not far from the center of Haarlem for this night, so you will have plenty of time to stroll around the city.

Today you will cycle to Keukenhof, probably the most famous flower park in the world, where you can admire hundreds of thousands of tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and many other flowers in full bloom. After an extended visit, you will cycle to the small village of Oude Wetering, where your floating hotel is already waiting for you.

The visit to the world’s largest flower auction in Aalsmeer takes place early in the morning (about 06:30) and therefore by bus. Here, millions of flowers are auctioned early in the morning and then sent directly to all corners of the world. Around 9 am you will return to the ship for breakfast while the ship takes you to Amsterdam. Later in the afternoon, you will have time to take a bike ride through Waterland or explore the amazing city of Amsterdam. Visit the downtown flower market or a museum, go on a shopping spree - there is so much to do here! At the end of the day, an optional canal cruise is organized for all ship guests.

Info: The flower auction in Aalsmeer is closed on weekends and public holidays. This is an optional offer.
