Free Airfare from NYC! Bike and Barge Through Holland & Belgium

April 24 – May 2, 2009

We invite you on a spring journey that offers a balance of action and leisure, a close-up experience of the Flemish countryside in springtime, and the camaraderie of biking and small-ship cruising. Board the 24-passenger intimate barge Merlijn in Amsterdam for a journey through the waterways of Holland and Belgium. Cycle about 25 miles a day on a 7-speed hybrid bike through the region's gentle landscape, accompanied by an experienced cycling expert. Then rejoin the ship for a three-course dinner and a relaxing evening.

Your route takes you into several cities rich in artistic and architectural heritage: canal-laced Amsterdam, dynamic Antwerp, the university town of Ghent and beautiful medieval Bruges. The Merlijn will spend a night in each of these cities, allowing time for evening walks and some morning tours.

If you'd like a different balance of biking and leisure, spend some days on board where you can watch the passing landscape from the sundeck.
