A bike tour Amsterdam visitors can book here costs from $22 for 1.5 hours to $129 for a 2 to 3 hour ride through the city.

The four city rides
Which bike tour in Amsterdam covers what
Cheapest first. Lengths and ratings are the live listing figures.
- Highlights ride — $22, 1.5 hours
The top sights by bike, through historic streets and along the canals; 4.7 on 1,836 reviews. The title lists German, Spanish, French, Italian and Chinese, so check the language you need when you book. It is the shortest guided bike tour Amsterdam has on this list.
- Every-neighbourhood ride — $41, 3 hours
The listing promises the city’s neighbourhoods and its landmarks in one 3-hour loop; 4.7 on 5,971 reviews. The most reviewed bike tour of Amsterdam on this site, and the second-cheapest.
- E-bike ride — $51, 2.5 hours
An Amsterdam electric bike tour where the guide does the navigating and leads you to hidden squares as well as the main sights; 4.7 on 133 reviews. The motor is the point: the listing sells it as the city without tiring yourself out.
- Ride like a local — $129, 2 to 3 hours
The famous sights plus some lesser-known spots; 4.7 on 80 reviews. It costs about three times the 3-hour ride, and the listing does not say what the extra buys, so read the live listing before choosing it.
Out of the city
An Amsterdam countryside bike tour to the windmills
One ride leaves town. The e-bike ride at $100 runs 5.5 hours: out through the ’t Twiske nature reserve to Zaanse Schans, a visit to the working windmills, then Zaandam before the return to the city. It is rated 4.9 on 246 reviews, the highest rating of the seven rides.
It is the only bike tour from Amsterdam on this list, and for windmills it competes with the group day trips, which start at $39. Those are compared in the day trips guide; this one is for people who would rather ride there.
Prosecco on pedals
Cycling with prosecco: the two pedal bars
Two private listings are less a tour than a party on a bike. The bubbles bike at $346 gives each guest a bottle of prosecco, plays your own playlist and calls itself the ultimate rolling party; 4.5 on 41 reviews. The mixed beer and bubbles bike at $402 is a mobile bar on wheels for you and your friends, heading for the outskirts of the city; 4.5 on 10 reviews.
Both run 85 minutes and are priced for the private group. Neither describes stops or sights, so do not book one in place of a city ride.

Routes
What each Amsterdam bike tour route covers
Only some listings describe the route, and none gives a map. What they do say:
Every neighbourhood on the 3-hour ride at $41, with the landmarks along the way. Historic streets and canals on the 1.5-hour highlights ride. The main sights and hidden squares on the e-bike ride. Out through ’t Twiske to Zaanse Schans and Zaandam on the windmill ride. The pedal bars name no route at all.
If you want to see the city by bike and on foot, the walking guide covers the walks that name their stops, such as the Old Town and the Royal Palace.
