I had a fantastic cycling experience at a beautiful villa where my tailor-made rental bike awaited me. Each day offered unique, scenic routes and delightful meals with locals or by the water, culminating in a memorable BBQ evening. We returned to the Netherlands recharged and looking forward to our next visit!
