Want to discover Texel in a unique way and get some exercise yourself? Book a Texelrider and experience an unforgettable day on Texel. A Texelrider is a four-wheeler that lets you cruise all over the island: from the picturesque villages to the meadows full of Texel sheep and half sheds (boeten). Prefer to visit an original VOC harbour or Fort De Schans? You decide the route yourself. If you want to spot animals along the way, binoculars are available to spot the beauty, for example on the 'Bird Boulevard'. Take some goodies with you and have a picnic in the countryside, or settle down on a terrace between kicks. Good to know: the Texelrider has three gears per person and the reclining seats are individually adjustable. This also makes the bike ideal for people who normally cannot cycle by themselves and for children: children from 7 years old can often pedal by themselves. Small dog along? It can be put in the basket on the back. So you cruise together along many long, wide cycle paths that dot the island. Times: You rent the Texelrider for a half-day (from 09:00 - 13:30 or 14:00 - 19:00) or for a whole day (then select morning and afternoon on the same date). Be present 10 minutes before departure and return on time. Ending the cruise earlier is always possible. Prices: 2 people + 2 children (max 7 years) €49.00 for the morning or €55.00 for the afternoon. 4 people + 2 children (max 7 years) € 57.00 for the morning or € 59.00 for the afternoon. Tickets are available, click on 'View times' to book. Need help? Then call +31222 314 741 or drop by the VVV Texel shop.
