Partly guided day trips

Let's say the weather is lovely, and you want to enjoy the day fully, but not all day guided.
No problem. We can start in the morning, a ½ guided day trip with sightseeing and introduction to Dutch history. The tour can end on a beach, or at Muiderslot-castle, or in a fortified town. Any location where you would like to spend more time, and don't need a guide any more.
So, it is by no means necessary to book a fully guided trip. This is one of the reasons YOU rent your bicycle, not me. (But I help you with reservation, pick up and checking the bike !)
The rental shop at the station in Weesp is open till 12 PM (11 PM on Sunday), because it's also a station bike park. As the rental is always per day anyway, you can return your bike anytime the same day.
Of course, I will show you how to cycle back to the station !

Coached and self guided trips

The Netherlands are also ideal for longer bicycle vacations.
And even in high season, there is no reason really why you shouldn't adventure on your own, if you're after optimal freedom in destination, duration and pace.
Yes, popular beach resorts will be crowded, and Amsterdam. But simply avoid cycling there. For visiting Amsterdam or other larger cities, a short train ride from a small quiet town will do the job.
Possibly, if you're a bit hesitant, some advice might come in handy.
Like practical suggestions on interesting routes and (historical) places to visit.
Or a little help to get you on the road, cycling with you the first half day or so. For an introduction to local traffic rules and habits, for general background information on the country.
Even coaching while you're on a self guided trip is a possibility. If you need advice or information while you're on the road : call your home base in this country !
Optimal flexibility and freedom, but with a safety net.
