We did the 6 hour windmills and cheese tour to Zaanse Schans. David was our guide and he was amazing. We got to see so much country side with just the right amount of breaks to have a drink and get some photos. Highly recommend.

A Personalised Tour Experience
We get happy from offering a fun, personal experience. And as the first founded bike tour company in Amsterdam, we have a rich history and deep connection to the city.
Located on the oldest inhabited square in Amsterdam, in a monumental building, we blend historical charm with a passion for storytelling. Even our yellow bikes are a bit cult among locals, many of which grew up with our bikes as a part of the streets.
Commitment to Sustainability and Community
Each year, we’re expanding and renewing our tour offerings to highlight more than just the traditional sights. Our new tours focus on the social aspects of the city, promoting inclusivity and sustainability.
We aim to contribute to a more liveable city, both for residents and visitors. By collaborating with Amsterdam & Partners, organising small-scale neighbourhood events, and working with local artists, we support the local community. On Friday evenings, we host a free bike repair club where fellow bike enthusiasts can learn basic bike repairs with guidance from our staff and tools from our workshop. And obviously, we follow sustainable practices such as charging e-bikes with locally produced green energy.
A Mission to Make a Difference
Our newest bike tours are designed to spread visitors across the city and showcasing diverse neighborhoods other than the historical city centre. We include stories of diversity and sustainability, encouraging visitors to travel in a way that positively impacts the city.
If you’re passionate about these values too, we recommend to book a guided bike tour such as North Amsterdam or the Countryside Bike Tour, and join this positive adventure with us.
Join us at Yellow Bike and see why we’re not just another tour company. Discover the true essence of Amsterdam with us!
