A wonderful way to relax and be active!
On our Bike and Boat cycling holidays, you’ll experience rivers, lakes, and coastal areas at their most beautiful. Enjoy scenic cycling stages through stunning landscapes, balanced by relaxing boat rides on comfortable, well-equipped vessels.
Take in the charming surroundings from the sun deck as you glide along the water, soaking up the views. For overnight stays, we offer comfortable outdoor cabins, and your meals, including breakfast and dinner, are taken care of, so you can focus on enjoying the journey.
Whether cycling through picturesque terrain or sailing peacefully on the water, this is the ultimate way to explore nature’s beauty.
Experience the 'floating hotel'
On your sailing and cycling holiday, there's no need to pack and unpack your suitcase every day—your hotel moves with you! Plus, the cycling stages are shorter compared to our regular bike tours, giving you even more time to relax aboard the ship, explore the cultural highlights of each destination, and enjoy the breathtaking landscapes as they pass by. You can even take a rest day onboard whenever you wish.
Aboard our beautiful mid-range ships, you’ll experience a personal, family-like atmosphere, with a service level on par with larger river cruise vessels. Most ships offer panoramic lounges where you can unwind or spacious sun decks with comfortable chairs, perfect for enjoying the journey at your own pace.
Let the rhythm of the water and the scenic beauty around you make this the ultimate, stress-free holiday.
Different day-by-day scenes
Imagine waking up refreshed in your outdoor cabin aboard a river cruise ship, enjoying a leisurely breakfast in the restaurant while the crew brings your bikes from the sun deck to the shore. You leave all worries behind, grab your bag for the day, and hop onto your bike, ready for the adventure ahead.
Cycle along stunning rivers, through enchanting nature, and into fascinating cities, with the freedom to stop whenever and wherever you like. Your packed lunch is ready for a mid-ride break, and perhaps the ship will even pass by you halfway through your journey.
At the end of your cycling day, the ship is already waiting for you, and the crew will help you bring your bike back onboard. Relax in the cosy lounge or on the sun deck, sipping a refreshing drink while soaking in the last rays of the day as the ship glides across the water.
After a quick refresh in your cabin, enjoy a delightful dinner in the restaurant, chat in the lounge, or unwind on the sun deck, all while the ship makes its way to the next harbour. After a restful night’s sleep, you’ll wake up rejuvenated and ready for another exciting day of cycling and exploring.
This is the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, making every moment of your holiday a true delight.
