Amazing trip in all respects!
Danube Experience Bike and Boat Passau-Vienna-Budapest-Belgrade-Iron Gates-Passau
From the boat, the staff on the boat, the cruise director, the stops, rides and excursions, everything was absolutely 5 star. I will never forget this trip!!

Fantastic Holiday
Ionian Islands Multi-sport Family Cruise
I had a great time. Tour guides, Chryssa and Katerina we knowledgable, helpful and lovely. The crew were very accommodating and helpful. The food was great. I loved swimming straight of the boat into that lovely water. I would definitely recommend. The rides are short as advertised, but unless you are very good at steep hills, get an ebike.

Cruise not my thing
Danube Discovery: Bike and Boat through Enchanting Capitals
Too much time on boat, not enough time exploring on land. Would have liked more time to be able to see the sights.
- ★★★★★ David Thomas
Fabulous trip!
Danube Delights: Biking through Four Countries
What a great way to visit four countries and bike through the lovely countryside. We chose to follow the map on the app ourselves and not have a guide which worked perfectly for us as it gave us more freedom to set our own schedule. We thoroughly enjoyed Leslie, our cruise director, who was full of energy and made each person feel special. The electric bikes were great quality and the crew did all the work moving them on and off the boat for our rides. This is a great introduction for us to the bike and boat world!

Fun!!!
Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique III (and reverse)
We biked on our own so probably missed some highlights, but GPS helped us follow same routes. Local bikers very fast so needed to pay strict attention!! But in all, totally awesome.

Lifetime Memories
Danube Discovery: Bike and Boat through Enchanting Capitals
Wow! - what a fantastic experience gliding down the stunning Danube. The itinerary was first class - our bikes were just great while the accommodation, meals & service on the 'Manon' were all excellent. It really was an experience of a lifetime riding adjacent to the Danube on high quality pathways a lot of the time while also exploring some stunning sights along the way including some gorgeous towns.

Awesome trip
Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique IV (and reverse)
Magnifique IV was the perfect “hotel”. Bike rides were great. Guides Hans and Andre were great.
- ★★★★★ Sharon Eearl
Fabulous trip!
Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique II (and reverse)
Celebrating my 70th birthday on Magnifique II was a special surprise! Everything on board was above expectations. Clean, comfortable, invigorating. Meals were first class!
I would recommend bringing eco friendly containers for lunch items as you will prepare your own lunch to take with you on the ride.Bike guides were informative and knowledgeable about sites and enhanced the experience.
Definitely recommend!

Fascinating Tour in Northern Germany
Northern German Odyssey: Bike, Barge and Cruise
This was a fascinating overview of eastern Germany, with the addition of a couple days in Poland, where we learned so much about the GDR era. The Merlijn is a beautiful ship, and the crew catered to all of our needs. The guide was an upbeat, knowledgeable Dutch woman who kept us laughing. The bicycles were perfect for the job. And the meals were heavenly!
- ★★★★★ Anthony Sedgwick
A bit of everything!
Paris Highlights Bike Tour
An incredible way to experience this beautiful city - fresh air, history, architecture, fresh produce, the Olympic spirit! What an amazing day with Min - the best guide ever!
- ★★★★★ Kramp Jon
The best boat of any bike and boat tour I have bookd via biketours.com
Northern German Odyssey: Bike, Barge and Cruise
Mainly a tour of the countryside of northeastern Germany. The boat was built about 100 years ago. It is evident that the boat has been totally remodeled. The cabins are very large with lots of open space. The bathroom was about the same size as on other boats. The food was well above average for bike tours I have taken in the past. The bikes used appeared to be new for the current season but were a bit on the heavy side. The bike route part of the trip contained more sections with pebble or uneven stone pavement surfaces than expected.
- ★★★★★ Mark Baxter
Biking from Amsterdam to Bruges
Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique IV (and reverse)
An amazing trip, blessed with great weather, the trip exceeded our expectations. The bikes were really good, the guides and crew were amazing, always helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The sightseeing was outstanding. The boat (Magnifique IV) was so nice and the food was tremendous.
- ★★★★★ Elena Riccione
Best way to see the area
Alexandria Mount Vernon Bike & Boat Tour
This tour is the ideal mix of active exploration and leisurely enjoyment. Our guide was informative and engaging, providing fascinating historical insights. There's no better way to explore this area. Plus, the waterfront in Alexandria boasts plenty of great restaurants.
- ★★★★★ Claudia Sanzone
From, boat to bike experience excellent
Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique III (and reverse)
I was so impressed with accommodations. The food was generous and outstanding. Guides were great and bikes in tip top shape.
We never felt overwhelmed with forty people as the guides knew how to organize the groups. - ★★★★★ Joachim Graf

Pros and cons, as in most tours
Prague - City of a Hundred Spires Bike and Boat
Pros: Flawlessly organized, excellent food options, very attentive service, comfortable cabins, excellent choice of cycling itineraries.
Cons: 100% of passengers were couples (50 yrs+), no possibility for changing tables at meal times for a variety of interactions, lack of events to encourage mingling/meeting others.- What was the date of your tour?
