Overview

Backroads

Dolce Tempo Journey from Amsterdam to Bruges

E-bike through these two bicycle-loving countries, where the bike paths are bustling and the roads are nearly an afterthought. You couldn’t design a better place to ride if you tried. From the backdrop of windmills and canals to the pancake-flat fields that are like riding into a Dutch School oil painting. End the day in a quaint village with a mouthwatering piece of chocolate or a draught of local beer, and you’ll understand why this is the land of wielersport.

Featured Destinations

The Hague The Hague The main seat of government for the Netherlands is located in The Hague (Den Haag) and it is the nation's third largest city. Famous in Europe for its beaches and tree lined boulevards, The Hague is also considered an important cultural center.	Destination Guide
Santpoort Santpoort A charming Dutch sea village in Northern Holland sits just outside the lively city of Amsterdam. When the day is warm and the sun is out, global guests and locals gather by the beach and have a cocktail at the many choices of beach bars. Families can engage in watersports and even parttake in friendly beach competitions!
Bruges Bruges Because of the export of high-quality cloths, Bruges became prosperous and rich. The remaining buildings still let you feel how rich Bruges was. Museums house a lot of fabulous paintings from this time. At the end of the 15th century Bruges was prosperous because of the silting up of the coastal area in Zwin, now a natural park near Knokke that can be discovered by bike during the summer. Walking in the city you can feel Bruges's history. Bruges became poor and was put back in the spotlight by Georges Rodenbach's novel "Bruges la Morte". Bruges was reborn as an Art City, well preserved, never severely damaged. The city is admired every day by thousands of tourists from all over the world. In 2002 Bruges was been chosen together with Salamanca in Spain as culture cities of Europe.	Destination Guide
Amsterdam Amsterdam Cosmopolitan Amsterdam is most famous for its narrow, gabled houses lining the canals. Interesting attractions include the medieval weighhouse, Royal Palace on Dam Square, and New Church. Its most glamorous industry is the diamond trade. Not too far from Amsterdam are the flower centers of Aalsmeer, the picturesque fishing villages of Volendam and Marken, cheese markets at Edam and Gouda, and historic Haarlem, the main center of the bulb-growing industry. Enjoy the city’s sights from a glass-topped sightseeing boat which passes characteristic gabled houses and negotiates picturesque arched bridges. Facing Dam Square, the Royal Palace was built in 1648 and is still officially the royal residence, although the royal family resides in The Hague. The marbled Citizens Hall with inlaid maps of the world is worth seeing. One of Amsterdam’s most visited sites is historic Anne Frank House. Rijksmuseum, the city’s most prestigious museum, houses the largest collection of Dutch paintings in the world. Van Gogh Museum houses a striking collection.	Destination Guide
