Terrific tour operator for travelers interested in beer, cycling, food, and intimate visits to local producers. BeerCycling itineraries are thoughtful, meticulously planned, and genuinely unique. It is evident Evan, Henk, Tom, and team have taken great care to develop mutually beneficial long-term relationships/partnerships with hosts (breweries, bars, restaurants, hotels, museums, etc.) to provide guests with exclusive experiences that one could truly not re-create on one's own.
We have been guests of BeerCycling on three separate trips that have taken us to special destinations in Germany, Belgium, and France. Two trips included our family and friends (it's a wonderful way to travel as a group) and we've also made lasting friendships with fellow BeerCyclers from around the world. Tours are a great value with the inclusions/conveniences and in addition to the planned visits there is typically always enough time in the afternoon/evenings to explore destinations on your own or with friends you've made along the way.
Ultimately, if there is a BeerCycling itinerary that looks intriguing to you, then we recommend going for it. Cheers!

Looking for a well guided bike tour and an adventure with friends and “framily”? This is for you. Book a tour with Beercycling, Pint A to Pint B, and you will be in for a fabulous time. Henk, Evan, and Tom, rolled out the red carpet for our group. The scenery, the food, the hotels, the towns, and of course the beer were fabulous. Imagine going on a vacation and not having to worry about a thing but having a great time and being in the outdoors on a bike! Booking our third tour today! Love these guys 💜🚴♂️🌷

Really wanted to like the biking trip in Europe but I had a tough experience. The website states that the biking trips are for all levels but this may need to be updated. Maybe not for beginners.
As a newer cyclist I would have appreciated a presentation on how to use the bikes at the beginning of the trip. Our guide gave us no information on the different gears, on how to adjust our seat to our height or how to properly adjust your helmet. We had a few bikers in our group who had ridden through 3 days on the wrong gear or the wrong seat high. This probably doesn't matter on a short ride, but being 3 days in and struggling through that is hard! I also had a fall during a ride that required bandages/medical supplies. The guide pulled out medical supplies that looked like they were purchased in the 90's. No antiseptic and the bandages would not stick. Ended up cycling with blood and an open sore until we stopped and I was able to purchase my own medical supplies.
Another tip for anyone who's looking to participate, go to all the provided pre-paid group dinners. The dinners that are suggested group dinners (where you pay out of pocket) are overpriced. Our group also has so much confusion when trying to pay the tab at the end, no separate tabs! Just head out on your own and explore.
In all I don't really know if I would participate in another Beercycling tour. Biking around the world for beer is fun, I loved the breweries we went to but I feel like I missed out on being a tourist due to time constraints. Would have loved to explore some of the cities we stopped in for more then an hour or two. If you're an experienced biker this is definitely a trip you want to do!

I recently returned from the Farmhouse brewery tour in Belgium and France. It was outstanding to say the least. Evan and Henk are great leaders and took us on a trip of a lifetime. From awesome meals, to inspiring breweries, the tour was day after day of pure delight. The accomodations were great as was all of the communication. These tours are definitely something that everyone should experience and I hope I will again soon.

I joined Even and Henk and Garet for The Ardennes Challenge in June 2019. What a great experience! The breweries were awesome, the monasteries were ancient and one of a kind, the villages were right out of a story book, and getting to visit picturesque cities like Dinant and La Roche-en-Ardenne were awe-inspiring! I loved being able to pack minimally knowing that they provided everything else. I didn't like not knowing enough French to understand everything, and I definitely should have used more sunblock. Bring your smile, your best pedaling shoes, and a whet appetite!

Our family and friends took the Dutch Tulips tour and had a wonderful time. The sightseeing, biking, beer and overall accommodations was simply outstanding. The tour guides are very service focused and really want all the guests to have a great experience. I would highly recommend Beer-cycling!!!

I went on the Belgium 5 day, 6 brewery tour with my girlfriends this September and we had the time of our lives. The countryside was beautiful and the breweries were all very different and interesting. Our guides Henk and Wendy were great fun and knowledgeable. Although for beginners, I definitely recommend training for the 40 mile day if you haven’t been on a bike in a while but it was so flat and well paved it wasn’t as hard as feared. Bring biking padded pants and gloves and a rain jacket plus extra room in your luggage to bring home some amazing bottles of hard to find beer. Totally recommend, we would go again in a heartbeat.

My partner and I have done two trips with Beercycling: Belgium Flanders and Belgium/France Farmhouse. We had fun, wonderful experiences on both trips and recommend to everyone we know that if they like cycling and beer, they should definitely do a beercycling adventure! Everything is so well planned out, but casual at the same time--leaving you to just enjoy the biking, beer drinking, and company of your fellow travelers.
