For some people it is hard to believe that, with the exception of racing-cyclists, most Dutch people (including children) cycle without a helmet. Bicycle lanes and paths are safe and motor traffic gives a lot of consideration to bikers. Tulip Cycling however fully respects your choice to wear a helmet. Bring your own or rent one of our TÜV tested helmets. |

You could get caught in an occasional rain shower, even in the summer. That's why Holland is so fresh and green. So it is always advisable to take a rain-jacket with you, or you can rent one of our practical light-weight and strong nylon rain capes. 100% wind and waterproof. Including hood and integrated 'stowaway' cover.

A cell phone can be very helpful, especially when on a self-guided tour and you require to make contact with our office, or your accommodation for the night. It also provides great peace of mind allowing family and friends to reach you in case of emergency, or for simply keeping in touch.
Check with your service provider to find out if your current mobile phone operates in the Netherlands and also how much they charge for (international) calls. Even incoming calls can be quite expensive.
For only Euro 5 per day we rent a pre-paid mobile phone.
