Amsterdam to Bruges


Two countries, Holland an Belgium, united in one route. Combining the highlights of Holland’s Golden Age and the heydays of the Flemish trade cities in the Middle Ages. 
 

Variety is the keyword in this tour. Cycling and sailing you will cross different landscapes such as the green Dutch polder landscape with water aplenty and quiet roads and villages, the picturesque countryside between the Flemish cities and of course the rich history of the old city-centers of Amsterdam, Antwerpen, Ghent and Bruges. Also, the large rivers in this part of the Netherlands and Belgium are a prominent feature along the route. From Vianen and Willemstad you will cycle to Antwerpen, the city of the painter Rubens. From Antwerpen you will cycle to Ghent, where you can get a taste of the old days. The grand finale of this tour will take place in the delightful and monumental city of Bruges.
