- and0lynf0 contributionsPim and Hermaan's bike tour gets ALL the stars!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩I booked Pim's bike tour for me and my husband based on all of the Airbnb reviews. They were all very positive, but our experience exceeded my expectations. Pim is delightful, warm and loves his city. You can tell how much he enjoys sharing it with everyone. Of course, being a dog lover, having Hermaan along for the ride was a bonus! The whole experience was totally positive and I cannot recommend it highly enough! I know it will be a highlight of your trip to Amsterdam as it was for us!!Written September 24, 2023

This tour was a definite highlight of our stay in Amsterdam. Highly highly recommended!Written August 11, 2023

- mdemerath0 contributionsAmsterdam bike tourAn awesome personal and off the beaten path tour of beautiful and cool parts of the city that are not often seen. Bill was an incredible guide and our whole family thoroughly enjoyed the experience.Written July 13, 2023
- brookesC2862VT0 contributionsExcellent!Extremely fun while also being educational! It was great to get the local perspective on Amsterdam/Dutch culture and to see parts of the city you typically don't get on similar tours. The pace was relaxed and it was a relief not to be biking in super congested routes. Definitely a high point of my time in Amsterdam!Written July 4, 2023
- J9142VValexandrap0 contributionsAwesome tourAwesome tour! Pim is a great guide and is very friendly and knowledgeable. I did the 4 hour tour which was a great way to see parts of the city that I wouldn’t have experienced otherwise. A must do!Written June 29, 2023
- charlesmB20 contributionsYes do this tour-definitely funIf you’re reading this then you are interested in a bike ride in Amsterdam. And yea you should do the 4 hour one. We had already done a canal cruise, walking tour etc but wanted to see more of Amsterdam. This was a great option. Yes it’s four hours but we did make stops to learn about Amsterdam, took lots of pictures, met some other nice people and grabbed something to eat at a really cool place. We saw parts of Amsterdam that we wouldn’t have seen or found on our own which was the best part. The graffiti art place, Westerpark and playing with the puppy (his dog came along for our trip) were a few of our favorites. Definitely a fun thing to do.Written June 24, 2023
- Rhondap9270 contributionsBest day seeing the city.Fabulous bike and history tour in fun neighborhoods. Away from the crowds and busy bike streets. Pim was a knowledgeable host and made sure everyone had a great time.Written May 29, 2023

- salemh3890 contributionsWonderful bike tour with PimWonderful experience with Pim in Amesterdam. Pim is very warm, kind and friendly, an educated man. We discovered Amesterdam with a different vision, a charming city. The cycling experience is very interesting, I strongly advise to live it but only by bike and only with Pim because it is different and Amesterdam is more beautiful with him.Written October 31, 2022

Our group of seven strangers on bikes became a cohesive group of friends on Pim’s highly entertaining and informative 3 hour “behind the scenes” tour of Amsterdam. We saw a windmill, rode a ferry, rode through the largest graffiti museum in the world, stopped for coffee, then later for chocolate, and ended sharing post your beers. Travel is all about meeting great people- and Pim’s tour makes this happen!

This bike tour turned out to be an absolutely fantastic and incredibly authentic tour of Amsterdam. Our tour guide, Pim, was absolutely incredible; they pointed out things that so many people miss and brought us to some awesome places. He was incredibly knowledgeable and answered any questions that we had. Besides that, he’s just a great guy!! Even the people who aren’t that big on biking tours absolutely loved it. I couldn’t say anything negative about our tour. It was amazing, and I hope that everybody gets a shot at getting to ride with Pim. There simply isn’t a better bike tour available in Amsterdam. Seriously, don’t even bother looking. Pim is your man!

We had a wonderful bike tour with Pim during our visit to Amsterdam. Having spent our first few days in the city center, it was refreshing to take a bike tour through places a little bit outside of the tourist zone. Though there was some less than ideal weather, Pim was cheerful and a great guide throughout our tour. Thank you!

Our family did a private bike tour with Pim and it was amazing. Our kids are 5 and 8 and they had the best time (and the grown ups did too). It was fun, safe, and interesting. Pim did a great job of making sure everyone felt comfortable and was having a good time. And he had so much knowledge to share about the history of Amsterdam. Our kids keep asking when we can do another tour with Pim. We’d highly recommend this for any family or for anyone in general.

This was an amazing bike tour! We visited a lovely park, saw many canals, took a ferry to Amsterdam North, and learned about architecture. Pim knows the area well, and made us all feel safe and comfortable. He is very knowledgeable, and has an engaging and humorous way of sharing stories. At the end of the tour we tried samples at Tony’s chocolate and grabbed snacks at a restaurant nearby. It was a wonderful way to spend our morning - so relaxing and I visited spots I wouldn’t have known about otherwise. I would highly recommend this tour!

Pim incorporated quirky storytelling as he took you around on an off-the-beaten path tour of Amsterdam. I particularly loved how his tour managed to cover a wide variety of subjects. Highly recommended.

Great tour seeing the hidden gems of Amsterdam. We felt very safe away from the main roads and seeing lots of areas we never would have seen if it wasn’t for this tour. Pim was very knowledgeable and gave a very interesting overview of the city and it’s history.

Pim met us on time, set up our bikes to be comfortable, and took us on a well planned route. He shared a lot of background knowledge and helped us understand some of the cultural and architectural history. We definitely felt safer than riding around the central canal district, and saw more of the city where normal people live their lives. The visit to Tony's chocolate was both fun and educational. We enjoyed more great conversation over lunch even after the ride was done. Thanks Pim!

This bike ride was a must do for a visit to amsterdam. Pim is great, so knowledgeable and fun. He takes you to places just outside the city in some areas you should see but would not know how to see such as the Nord. This is where all the art and graffiti museum, sooo cool. I highly recommend this adventure!

Pim’s bike tour was definitely the highlight of my Amsterdam trip. He showed us the real city outside of the touristy areas and shared a lot of good information about the city, the culture, and sustainability. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique experience in Amsterdam.

Hi. My girlfriend and I were recommended your bike tour by one of our friends. We’d really like to book for first week in Sept.
Is a tandom bike possible? My girlfriend can ride but has limited biking experience.
