Cycle through Holland’s breathtaking landscapes on our Windmills E-Bike Tour from Amsterdam to Zaanse Schans. Begin by heading north through the serene Twiske nature reserve, riding past tranquil dikes and picturesque canals under iconic Dutch skies. Experience charming green houses along the route as your guide shares stories of local heritage.

As you arrive at Zaanse Schans, enjoy an incredible view of historic windmills rising across the water.
