What our customers say

My students loved it! If there is one thing to do in Amsterdam, this is it.

Onze ervaring met Yellow Bikes was geweldig! Luca was onze gids tijdens een 2 uur durende fietstocht, ondanks het regenachtige weer bleef zij heel vrolijk en professioneel. Het was een leuke manier om de stad te verkennen, vooral voor onze twee zonen van 14 en 18 jaar oud. We raden het zeker aan!

Our family of four ( two kids aged 11 and 10) went on the 4 hour countryside bike tour and enjoyed cycling round the very flat countryside north of Amsterdam. Lots of green fields, cows, pretty villages and an old windmill. Our guide Bart was very friendly and knowledgable and gave us enough historic information about various places along the route. The cycling was very easy but fun and we had a nice short stop half way for apple pie at a small cafe in one of the villages . We thoroughly enjoyed it.

Gut organisierte Fahrradtour ins idyllische Umland von Amsterdam, unser Guide war eine total sympathische junge Holländerin, die diese Tour mit viel Engagement und Souveränität durchgeführt hat. Die Fahrräder sind gepflegt und haben keine Schaltung, so dass alle ein gleichmäßiges Tempo radeln müssen und können, was die Tour auch in einer größeren Gruppe angenehm beschaulich macht.

Happy Customer

Op één groepje na zijn alle gasten ‘droog’ aangekomen in het restaurant. Mijn groepje heeft helaas een fikse bui op zijn hoofd gehad. Ik vond jullie support super. Zowel in het voortraject als tijdens het event. Was echt fijn samenwerken.Enige kleine minpunt… de gids van mijn groepje wilde alleen overal stoppen (o.a. het Anne Frank Huis). Ik heb hem gevraagd of het tempo omhoog te gooien. Meer fietsen en minder stilstaan en praten. Het jammere is dat dan ook juist mijn groepje de bui op zijn hoofd heeft gekregen waardoor de feedback was dat als we minder lang gestopt waren wij ook droog aangekomen waren. Hij had ook juist de CEO & CFO in de groep en de meeste Nederlanders 🙂Dat zal je altijd zien…Linn, nogmaals ik ben super positief en boek graag nog eens een tour bij jullie.

Some interesting facts about cycling in Amsterdam

How many bicycles are there in Amsterdam?

It is estimated that Amsterdam has approximately 881,000 bicycles. This is an estimate from 2012. Every day, approximately 400,000 people cycle, making an average of 665,000 bicycle rides. – Source: https://www.fietsberaad.nl/ and https://onderzoek.amsterdam.nl/artikelen/amsterdam-als-fietsstad.

How many bicycles are removed by the municipality?

The bicycle depot removes many bicycles because they are parked incorrectly or are classified as wrecks. This is how we keep the city clean and orderly. But yes, it is annoying if you suddenly lose it because you were in a hurry or missed a sign!

The Bicycle Depot removed more than 81,000 bicycles in 2017. (source: Dutch newspaper Het Parool) You can have your bicycle delivered to your home for a fee, or pick it up at the depot itself. Quite an undertaking, to which Het Parool itself devoted an extensive article in 2023.

How many bicycles get stolen in Amsterdam?

In recent years, around 11,000 bicycles have been reported stolen per year in Amsterdam. Please note that many people do not report the theft, so we think it could easily be twice as much! Believe it or not, our Yellow Bikes are also stolen regularly. That is why we always recommend theft insurance for your Amsterdam bike rental.
