Each tour starts with a safety briefing, after which the ‘Highlight Tour’ can begin. The group cycles along the Marineterrein, the Jewish neighborhood, Artis, De Grachten, the Rijksmuseum and the Vondelpark.
Ten kilometers are covered in 2.5 hours during the tour. According to Stephan, the bicycle guide, this is ‘a particularly slow pace’, so there is no rush. In addition, he emphasizes that 99 percent of the tours are safe and good. Although something goes wrong now and then: “Every year we puncture a date of the first person to enter the ditch and last week it was time for someone to go into the water with e-bike and all the water.”
Rain
Because of the rain it was not so busy on the street, so that the tourists can explore the city fairly quietly in the beginning. For example, one of the tourists says: “It’s quiet here today. That’s why I am not driven off my bike.”
