    Well organized, fantastic trip

    Florence to Rome

    We really enjoyed this self guided bike tour. The trip was very well organized, and the support was excellent. The app is a great way to easily stay on the correct route. The biking was great - scenic, and the right amount of miles/elevation per day to make it seem like a good solid bike ride while leaving enough energy to explore the really interesting towns along the way.

    Sea, Sand, (and Hills) of Crete!

    Aegean Discovery: Cycling through Eastern Crete

    We did the slow ride through Crete with an off day at the beach after every day of cycling. Beautiful scenery, and a decent enough amount of cycling each day to feel that we earned our dinners! Very well run and organized, with no issues with hotels or luggage transfers.

    Amazing trip!

    Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne

    This was the perfect way to see Switzerland. The countryside is scenic , the lakes and rivers are pristine and the cities are beautiful. We added an additional “rest day” in Spiez as there is so much we wanted to do in the area and I’m so glad we did. It allowed us to go paragliding, do some great hikes and get to see more of this amazing area.

    It was a dream cycle ride!

    Innsbruck to Salzburg: Through the Alps Along River Cycle Trails

    What a beautiful way to experience Austria and the Austrian Alps. The journey was well-planned, there was a lot of time to enjoy the scenery and cuisine, and the hotels were all great.

    Rolling through beautiful Alentejo

    Castles and Wines of Portugal

    Our self-guided tour was a wonderful experience. We were very happy with all of the rich, multi-sensory stimulation we experienced every day on the trip. Lots of variety and interest, especially for us who are very interested in history and local culture. Highlights were getting to visit up close and in a very informal and uncrowded manner the many historic sites - castles, prehistoric graves and boulder installations, village crafts workshops, medieval churches and cathedrals as well as the pleasant agricultural countryside. We particularly liked it that we experienced zero crowds of other tourists. By the way, the castle that you show in your photo was where we had lunch one day. We were the only persons there. It was our hottest and longest day, so we really needed the rest, refreshment and tranquility. Special highlights were the beautiful, historic inns where we stayed - converted palaces and convents several hundreds of years old. It almost made us feel like royalty, and for a modest price, too.

    Wonderful and adventurous trip

    Balkan Treasures

    This was such an adventurous trip. Wonderful scenery and places. Great people in all the countries we visited.
    Only criticism was that one of booked hotels was way below standard and appeared out of business. The tour company quickly remedied the problem with a change to another hotel that was excellent

    Best time ever on a bike tour

    Nature, Villages & Castles of the Loire River Valley

    We had the most wonderful time on this tour. We are 73 and 75 years old, fairly frequent bike riders at home, and were completely capable of doing this easy route. Mostly flat, had to walk a couple of minor hills, very little riding in traffic. The route was beautiful (we were blessed with great weather in late September), the hotels were outstanding (I recommend taking the dinner package option with the tour; we didn't but ate at the hotels because several were in very small towns. The food was absolutely gourmet.) Our bikes were first class; the whole trip was just magic. People at Biketours.com are super easy to work with. Will definitely use them again.

    beautiful scenery, perfectly planned route

    Medieval Villages of Catalonia

    This is one of the most organized self-guided tours we have taken. The map and accompanying photos and tips were terrific. In addition, one bike had a Garmin GPS device, the other a smart phone with Maps.me. Great bikes, high-quality accommodations...It was a wonderful trip. We have several friends who are considering doing it.

    Fabulous vacation pedaling by the Sea

    Medieval Villages of Catalonia

    This trip was a blast. I love seeing the world from the back of a bicycle. We had great weather the entire trip. There were a lot of gravel roads but not much traffic. We were self-guided with maps and a Garmin so we enjoyed getting off course a few times at first with lots of laughs. We ate in some fabulous restaurants suggested by the super nice lady who gave us our bikes and packets. She was very helpful and insightful with great ideas. The villages were full of nice people, historical castles and churches. I really enjoyed staying in the towns by the Mediterranean Sea and going to the beaches. Girona is a beautiful city. I liked the narrow old streets lined with little shops and walking the wall built around the city. We rode our bikes up and over Els Angels on our last day and it was a nice view from the top. We only had one small issue when our luggage was taken to the wrong hotel but it arrived within an hour. I highly recommend this bike tour.

    Self Guided Tour for Me and My Wife

    Albarracín to Valencia Along Spain's Longest Greenway

    This was an exciting bike trip, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Some trails have loose gravel and on downhill so you need to be careful. Some routes have very few or no small villages or towns to stop for refreshments. But overall the trip was excellent. Bikes were in good condition albeit a bit heavy.. Accommodations were very good with some very unique B&Bs. We would certainly recommend this bike trip. Our contact at the Biketours.com was Andrea - she was extremely helpful, professional and very friendly.

    Exceeded my expectations!

    Split to Dalmatian Islands

    This was my husband and my first bike ‘tour’ and it was more than I imagined it could be! We were given a brief Croatian history lesson, a thorough briefing of our tour and the bikes before we got started. The routes were well marked on the App provided. It was a fantastic way to get into the nookes and crannies of the Dalmatian islands. As this was a self guided trip we were able to go at our own pace. We stopped often to take pictures or to simple enjoy the picturesque views!! This was our first but definitely not our last bike tour!!
