Holland/Belgium: Flavors of Flanders Biking Adventure
A true taste of Holland and Belgium
If you’ve never tasted a Belgium french fry with spicy sauce Américaine, then you’re in for a treat! Savor the unique flavors, quaint harbor towns, scenic inland canals and first-class art of Holland and Belgium on this 6-day biking tour.
Pedal the paved alleyways of the tiny harbor town of Veere. Ferry to Breskens and ride atop the dunes of the North Sea coast to the lively beach resort of Cadzand-Bad. Explore the famous Flemish art museums of Bruges and bike along canals graced by beautiful white swans in the village’s medieval center. Coast through woodlands dotted with castles and mansions around Hertsberge, and follow the Leie River as it snakes lazily between rich green meadows in Deinze.
By night, savor a bowl of steamed mussels, a plate of fries and a desert of chocolates and pralines, and raise a glass of Belgium beer to yet another memorable day on your two-wheeled journey.
