★★★★★ sharon
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.

A most memorable trip
Cycling Spain's Ebro River
This tour following the Ebro River was very well organized. Each day was different. The directions were excellent, the roads were good surfaces, the innkeepers very nice, and the mix of history, nature, and wine country a good combination.

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!!

Great trip
Innsbruck to Lake Garda Across the Southern Slopes of the Alps
We enjoyed this trip very much. The small medieval town centers were beautiful. Nice hotels and the tour company adjusted the schedule so we could visit Otzi. The scenery is gorgeous especially when the route veers away from the main roads.

Expectations Exceeded
Venice to Trieste and Istria
We spent a few extra days in Venice to start and 5 extra days in Porec at the end. Really glad we spent the extra time. Extending the bike rental was not a problem.
The tour in between was awesome. Accommodations were better than expected and all the towns were charming.I had a little trouble with my bike. The front hub was a little tight so the wheel didn't spin as freely as it should have. I noticed when we picked up the bikes but didn't think too much of it. After a couple days I contacted the tour company and they brought me a different and better bike. Kudos to the tour operator.
At one hotel there was confusion about a reservation for someone travelling with us. Again, the tour company stepped up. The real measure of the tour company is how they handle problems. They were terrific.
Had a couple directional issues. We have T-Mobile so GPS worked perfectly. Previously we had AT&T with the international package. It was underwhelming to say the least. I highly recommend T-Mobile.
Final day was a bit of a climbing challenge for Mrs. But we managed. The highlights of the tour were riding along the Adriatic, taking the occasional swim and the people we met.

Fantastic trip !
Dolomites to Trieste via Lake Bled at the Foot of the Julian Alps
We were very pleased with everything. All information from Bike tours was 100% reliable. It was great to visit three countries in 6 days on bicycle. Every day was spectacular and different from each other, but always with beautiful scenery and we felt very safe on the cycling paths. Hotels had good standard, especially the last four hotels, and every village charming and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this trip !

Cycling adventure in Greece!
Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
The trip was great! It is always such a unique experience to cycle and explore new places on bike. The people and the food in Greece is 10 out of 10!!
Some days were a bit demanding (especially the first day) as we had non electric racers.
The highligts were Gythio, Monemvasia and the island Elanfonosis, though every village is charming and worth visiting. The cycling paths were non traffical with few exceptions and we find the drivers very polite and gave us enough space. Self guided was not a problem as the app was great and easy to follow.
As we had the trip in low season it was some times a bit hard to find a place opened for lunch but always managed in the end!
Hopefully this was only the beginning of cycling in Greece.- What was the date of your tour?

Great experience !

There are a lot of hills to climb but the views are worth it ! the hotels were excellent , and included a couple of Paradors that were amazing- What was the date of your tour?

Best Guided Tour Ever!
UNESCO Sites of Albania
UNESCO Sites of Albania was the best guided tour I have ever done. Not only did the food and scenery exceed their reputations, the accommodations and bikes were excellent. More importantly, our guide and driver/mechanic were extremely efficient, knowledgeable, helpful, and cheerful—they left us wanting for nothing! I highly recommend it.

Loved our trip, amazing way to see this part of the world
Lake Constance Bicycle Path
We loved every minute of our trip. We got lost a few times, but realised that in Austria the sign posting wasn't as reliable than it was in Germany and Switzerland.
Accommodation was exceptional at each location, and breakfasts were more than we expected.- What was the date of your tour?

Perfect trip and ride for vacation
Medieval Villages of Catalonia
We loved the rides, and places to stay on this trip. Daniel did an excellent job prepping us and providing us with a gps and a smartphone with a map that made this the easiest self guided tour we have done. The hotels we stayed at and the towns were beautiful. Do not pass up eating at Hotel Arcs in Monells. Best meal of trip and we had a lot of great meals.
