Let us introduce you to Wanderlust Mama & Co, who are local Dutch tour guides, who you can book for a personal family bike tour in and around Amsterdam. They offer a bespoke service where you have control of your itinerary, whilst making use of their local knowledge and expertise. Choose between a tailor-made tour based on your own interests, or you can opt to book their already carefully thought out ‘Clog Bike Tour’.
You may be wondering how you will get around on your bike tour with kids in tow, but worry not as this is where your adventure gets an added bit of uniqueness, as your children get to enjoy the comfort of their own ‘clog’ carriage!
Does anything say Dutch more than a clog? Well, the Dutch are the masters of bike riding and have created all manner of bicycle for their leisure and trade. Now you can let your children travel in a unique clog bike powered by your Wanderlust Mama &Co guide, (obviously this got our attention considering we are ‘Little Clogs’ ourselves!). But it’s not just a gimmick, these cool box bikes, and this one in the shape of a clog, are the perfect way to safely transport your children around.
Children not only get the perfect viewing point whilst out exploring, they also have a super comfortable, safe place to relax and enjoy the adventure. For us adults, we know that travelling with children will always include some extra essentials for a day out. Instead of you carrying your own belongings, why not pop them in the clog too and have your hands free to enjoy your leisurely cycle as well.
The organised tour is a great way to see parts of Amsterdam that tourists wouldn’t necessarily think/know about, and you get to enjoy some Dutch culture and lifestyle along the way. After meeting your Wanderlust Mama & Co guide at a prearranged central location in Amsterdam, you cycle your way out of the busier areas of the city to a local cheese farm. Here you will see the farmer demonstrate how cheese and clogs are made. Will you take a pair home as a souvenir? As you continue on your journey through the pretty streets and tree-lined suburbs of Amsterdam, you will discover your next location, Amstelpark. This is a huge open park which is the perfect place to let off some steam and stretch your legs/or have a rest! Most likely you’ll be ready for a bite to eat so why not sample some pancakes, enjoy a lakeside position and even take a mini train ride.
As an extra, especially for the kids, there is always a craft workshop included.
The park itself has an abundance of space to play, climb and explore, before getting back on your tour and visiting a real Dutch windmill.
By booking a family ‘Clog Bike Tour’ you have the opportunity to see a side of Amsterdam that most visitors won’t have on their radar. Amsterdam has an abundance of architectural delights, beautiful buildings, museums and stunning canals. However, people are largely unaware of the pretty green spaces, farmland and extensive parks that you can enjoy too! With this tour you get to explore beyond the city whilst ticking off some of those must-see Dutch traditions, all accompanied by a local who can guide the way, and of course share lots of interesting facts.
Let’s not forget, having a day out on a bike is as if you too were a local. As for the kids, well, who could resist a photo opportunity and chance to ride in a clog!
This tour can accommodate up to 6 people. You can find more information and pricing for Wanderlust Mama & Co’s ‘Clog Bike Tour’ here.
