Bike Across Belgium Ranked Coolest Bike Tour

This is a dream cycling vacation and for sure; the coolest trip you could ever imagine. We think so. And, Bicycling Magazine agrees.

In Belgium, the beer culture is at a level of refinement, depth, and complexity that easily rivals any renowned wine region. There are 1,100+ beers brewed in Belgium. In addition to six Trappist ales and other abbey beers, the country churns out lagers such as Stella Artois and Jupiler.

Tipplers can also choose from an array of wheat beers, brown ales, red beers, golden ales, saison beers based on old farmhouse recipes, and any number of regional brews. Our Bike Across Belgium bike tour gives you access to more boutique breweries than any other European bicycle tour.

Hoppy highlights include the complete experience at Het Anker in Mechelen, a historic brewery in a historic building in a historic town! Our private guided tour will be followed by dinner at the brewery and a chance to taste all of their excellent beers. There will be a whiskey tasting option as well, since they produce it on site. We’ll stop for lunch at La Chouffe and Hoegaarden breweries, and though we won’t have time for tours there, you’ll have the option to visit De Halve Maan, Domus, and Bourgogne de Flandres breweries on your own. In addition, you can visit the Leffe beer museum, with a complimentary tasting, in our monastery hotel in Dinant! On the last night, we’ll have a special toast at a our favorite beer spot!

This top-rate tour has been rated World’s Coolest Bike Tour by Bicycling Magazine (2015) and “”Best Foodie Destination”” by Outside Magazine as well. There is a buzz about Belgium.

Ciclismo Classico tour guide Isacco, our Belgium expert, shares: I think there is something very special about Bike Across Belgium. Just like most Italian tours with Ciclismo Classico have a “pizza night”, in Belgium we have a great “”mussels and french fries night!”” that happens in Oudenaarde, at dinner in a restaurant in a 16th century cellar. Imagine a big pot of steaming authentic North Sea mussels served with fresh original Belgian fries. And, to top it off, the restaurant is located near the main square and next door to the exciting Centrum Ronde van Vlaanderen Cycling Museum.

Our Belgium trip also features a waffles tasting, a Trappist and abbey cheese tasting, a French fries tasting, a Flemish stew tasting, a chocolate tasting, and man, many beer tastings. Don’t miss out on the coolest, hippest bike tour on the planet!
