Discover the Bollenstreek Together on a Parent-Child Tandem

Would you like to explore the Dutch countryside in a fun and active way with your child? Rent a parent-child tandem in the stunning Bollenstreek and enjoy a truly unique family adventure.

Our specially designed tandems are perfect for parents who want to cycle comfortably together while discovering some of the most beautiful nature areas in the Netherlands.

Ride through the enchanting Natura 2000 dune landscapes near Noordwijk and along the lively seaside boulevards of Katwijk and Noordwijk. Along the way, take in breathtaking coastal views and if you’re lucky, you might even spot deer in the dunes.

During summer, explore the classic Dutch polder landscape around the Kagerplassen. Picture traditional windmills, cows grazing in green meadows and sailboats drifting across peaceful lakes. A real highlight for families: crossing the water together on a small local ferry with your tandem!

In spring (late March to early May), the region transforms into a sea of color. Cycle past endless flower fields filled with tulips, hyacinths and daffodils. The Bollenstreek is at its absolute best during tulip season. Stop at one of the flower attractions along the route and capture unforgettable family photos.

From Voorhout you can easily reach:

  • The beach of Noordwijk or Katwijk
