The Utrecht region offers the best of both worlds: expansive ancient forests, rivers, and endless polder landscape, and at the same time, urban city life with lively bars, museums full of art treasures and rushing festivals.
You can easily combine the two in one visit, as the city and country are not far apart. This is also the reason why Utrecht is best explored by bike. Great cycle paths take you through beautiful natural landscapes and past many cultural heritage sites.
In this Collection, we show you the eight most beautiful day tours around Utrecht. Whether you love nature, are interested in culture and history, or prefer city life, you're sure to find the right bike tour for you.
