VBT Bicycling Vacations offers a week-long all-inclusive bike and barge tour of Holland and Belgium. Travelers get an opportunity to see Belgium and Holland on a private canal barge, visiting sights such as the 19 windmills at Kinderjijck, admiring attractive canal houses, sampling Belgian cheeses, beers and chocolates, and exploring the picturesque towns of Ghent and Bruges. In addition, travelers will participate in 15 to 35 miles of relatively easy biking a day. Because of Holland and Belgium's flat terrain, the tour is appropriate for beginners.
