We (the Active Travel Adventures Community) are looking at a group of us booking the entire ship (24 guests maximum) for a week in July of 2027 to explore the northern Friesland region of the Netherlands. I am still working out the details, but is should be under €2000 per person, double occupancy. Note that we would sail in '27 NOT '26.

When I interviewed my affiliate Boat Bike Tours top guide Tamara (Tammy) about her personal favorite European tour, she said hands down it was Friesland, in northern Holland: beautiful scenery, interesting culture and history and best of all, most people don't even know about it, so it's not over-touristed like so many cool destinations.

I am now seeing what interest there is in reserving this boutique, comfy ship.

Even though the tour is offered self-guided, and you can certainly do this using the app and map, we want to bring Tammy and another guide along, because guides add so much color to our exploration. They know the history and have great background stories, and they know the best places to see and stop, etc.

Like my recent ATA Portuguese Way Camino group, where we went "Solo/Together", this would be the same: each day you can decide whether to ride with the group or self-guide, or even just sail with the ship and relax on board, or wander around town.

We'd do this seven day boat and bike tour from a Friday to Friday. The port is easy to reach by a one hour train from Amsterdam.
