Yes, that ride along the Vecht is glorious. Great routing by the tour company.
Thanks for sharing this video with your experience. I will be there soon.
Strumbled accross your video, very relaxing to watch in the morning, nice commentary, looks like a memorable holiday, well done!
I was born in Kinderdijk and live in the Krimpenerwaard now.
Great video, very well made. Glad you had a nice holiday in our countries. About the weather: 2023 was one the worst summers in a century, but as you said, no bad weather only bad clothing (when you bike).
My sister is on this tour right now! Thought I would check it out and see what she's instore for.

Nice video. I suppose you visited the canadian war cemetery at Bergen op Zoom. Groesbeek is at the other side of the country.
Love the video. It says you used your iPhone. Did you have it mounted or in your hand? We are going on a bike boat trip this summer and want to capture our trip. Thank you.

Hi Dutch here, it is forbidden to cycle with your mobile phone in your hand, it can result in a fine of 159 euros. I hope you have a nice holiday this summer with hopefully better weather than 2023

Thanks for watching. I didn't use a mount. I had the phone in my pocket and just took it out for a few seconds when I saw an interesting scene up ahead.
What your company did this and how much did it cost. Were you supplied 3 meals a day as part of cost. I saw that you stopped at places to eat, was that additional? Did you have the same bike every day. I you mention one day you opted for ebike. Thanks.
What weeks of the year did you take this tour? (I'm just trying to judge the weather for a given month of the year.)

I see in the video it mentions @19:10 that it was usually cold and wet for "early August".

They supply bikes, but you can bring your own. Of the bikes they supply, you can choose ebike or conventional bike. We rode the ebikes.
