    At Tulip Cycling we specialize in creating individual, tailor-made bike tours in Holland. Our unique concept is based on giving our customers a high level of input into planning their own cycling vacation. You design it, we create it!
    Our cycling gear is always top quality and the route support is thoughtfully put together. Tulip Cycling will also introduce you to the best accommodation on route, and according to your preferences and budget.

    Holland, or The Netherlands, is a cyclist's dream. With its endless miles of paved cycle paths and flat terrain cycling is enjoyable, relaxing and very safe for both experienced and non-experienced cyclists of all age groups.

    We'll help you put together the perfect cycling trip. We're the experts, we're Dutch and we're doing it all the time!

    but in your way of travelling there"



    Tailor-made tour

    Tulip Cycling is not a typical tour operator offering fixed group tours where you are just a number in a group of strangers. We build your very own tour, based on your choices and our expertise and route-knowledge.


      You choose:
       1 -  Tour duration (minimum 3 days);
      2 -  Start and finish dates & places;
      3 -  Daily cycling distance;
      4 -  Favourite cycling areas / themes;
      5 -  Accommodation category;
      6 -  Equipment & support options;
        


    Please remember... like most stereotypes, Holland does not live up to its image where everyone smokes pot and wears wooden clogs. It is a country with a variety of landscapes, embedded in a long and interesting history. An eviable culture that embraces the arts, nature, innovation and a strong sense of justice for all.
    ~ Explore it at the right (cycling) pace and take your time to 'smell the tulips'. ~

        Equipment Tip:
    Thinking about bringing your own bike to Holland, instead of renting one of ours? Our experience tells us that air transporting cycles can be burdensome and risky (damages).Besides, your bike might not be best suited to European cycling conditions.
        City Tip:
    Planning to visit the big towns Amsterdam or Rotterdam? Then we advise that you do this before or after your cycling tour. Cycling in these large cities is not so enjoyable owing to the level of traffic. Tulip Cycling advises walking or taking public transport as a safer and more relaxing alternative.
        Crossing the borders:
    Considering crossing over into Belgium? Tulip Cycling also facilitates your tour initiatives in the northern Belgian provinces of Flanders.
