Beautiful & Historically Rich
Vienna to Budapest (Classic)
Our self guided cycle trip from Vienna to Budapest was extraordinary. The navigation guide worked really well for the daily cycles and the pacing of our days was great, other than we would have opted to stay in some of the cities like Gyor and Budapest for an extra day to do some history tours. Great hotels, planning and support otherwise.

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!!

Fabulous way to see and experience Eastern Crete
Aegean Discovery: Cycling through Eastern Crete
Our group of 6 friends enjoyed the challenge of cycling Eastern Crete.
Electric bikes helped us climb the rugged mountains where the scenery was breathtaking.
The tour took us to busy towns and quiet villages; Past turquoise waters and hills covered in spring flowers or olive trees.
We saw sheep and goats. Smelt the wild herbs growing on the side of the road.
We ate slow cooked lamb and a variety of fish. Creamy yoghurt and local honey. Wild greens, fresh salads Cretan pies and gyros.
The freshly squeezed orange juice is a must.
The Cretan hospitality is amazing - including dessert and Raki!
Everything went as planned. The app was accurate. Luggage transfers were on time.
This is a great way to see the real Crete.
But beware. Crete is hilly.- What was the date of your tour?

Fantastic Trip
Best of the Algarve by Road Bike
A good bike trip for the not so advanced cyclists that are looking for a challenge. We averaged about 75 km each day for 6 days. Certainly covered the Algarve Region from east to west then north to south. The coastline from Sagres to Aljezur was our favourite amongst the days travelled. Accommodations and breakfasts were what we were expecting. Rented bicycles functioned well. Coordination at the beginning, during and following the trip was timely and as expected.

Good trip, bad weather

Interesting ride through the beautiful Boudreaux region of France
Atlantic Coast of France
Great rides on pretty much car free roads. Vineyards as far as the eye a see in many areas. Good wine at great prices. Especially liked exploring Bordeaux city.
Ebikes worked well, but we’re heavy for my wife. App giving directions was great at times but confused us at other times- What was the date of your tour?

Gorgeous countryside - good biking
Tuscany Getaway: 4 Nights in Siena, Montalcino & Pienza
This is a very enjoyable fairly easy ride. Pienza is stunning. The country side does not seem real. The e-bikes were great and made the ride comfortable. The hotels were comfortable and welcoming. I forgot my glasses at one hotel and they were brought to me asap. Great support.

Danube self guided
Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)
This was a great trip. Great bikes. Great ride. Loved the hotels and little towns.
My only complaint was the tour rep that met us didn’t seem to have any time, he let us know he had to meet some people at another hotel. Did not help adjust bikes, poor briefing and left after giving us the basics on the bikes. .Other tour reps spent time and sat down with client's at the same hotel for quite some time.

Stunning scenery
Tuscany and Umbria: Cycling in the Heart of Italy
The landscape was magnificent-rolling green hills of cereal and vegetable crops, vineyards, olive groves and poppy fields. The historic hilltop towns were reached easily on the ebikes. The accommodation could have been better in a couple of places eg miniscule shower recesses. Overall a most enjoyable ride.

Fantastic trip
Biking Through the Heel of Italy from Puglia to Salento
We have done over a dozen bike tours, both guided and self guided. This trip was self guided and we had a fantastic trip. The tour hit all the marks. The local bike company was organized, friendly, available, and provided high quality bikes (we rented E-bikes). They provided a phone to use for GPS directions and the system worked great! Very accurate and almost foolproof. The routes were along stone wall lined secondary roads amongst century old olive groves or along the coast (1/3 inland, 2/3 coastal). Most of our accommodations were inside pedestrian only medieval walled cities with lots of options for exploring and eating. Accommodations were surprisingly good considering they were in century old buildings. We used the restaurant recommendations from the bike company and found them to be excellent. The terrain is not that hilly but we were glad to have E-bikes with the coastal wind. It looked like the area gets very busy with tourists in the summer, but was nice and quiet in mid May. We did not encounter any other American tourists. The Italians were universally friendly, and the language barrier was not a big issue.

A wonderful experience.
Cycling and Cooking in Tuscany
Amazing chief who not only made us delicious meals but also taught us how to make many tasty dishes. He was so friendly and involved and eager to share his love of Italian cooking.
The biking guide and support were always concerned for our comfort with our route and making sure we had water and snacks. We cancelled riding one day due to serious rain so they drove us to the beautiful cities we would have cycled to and we were able to explore.
Our accommodations were lovely and my room had a beautiful view over the valley.
There was a swimming pool but temperatures were just a little too cool to enjoy the pool. The house/kitchen staff were helpful and kind. Breakfasts were delicious with a variety of foods to choose from.
In all it was a wonderful experience for me and I met some lovely people.- Countries included in this tour?

Everything i wanted and more.! I am very very pleased with the experience.
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
My tour was something I will remember forever. The bike was well equipped for the tour. The phone holder worked very well and the app was easy to use. My favourite part of the tour quickly became the first 20 min of the day after leaving the hotel and having a beautiful morning ride of out the towns into the country side. The scenery was so so lush and green. Birds singing, flowers blooming everywhere. We took a long slow lunch in the many beautiful towns and had a wonderful experience. Will be taking about this trip to everyone!

Great but we wish we controlled the weather😀
Berlin – Copenhagen
It really was an excellent tour. Between the GPS file and the maps, navigation was pretty easy. Despite having to back track once for a total of 5 Kms, the cycling was straight forward, the scenery varied and pretty with so many flowers in bloom.
Generally, distances were good but our longest day, the last, 90 plus kms, had the most things to stop and see and we missed out on a couple castles etc. This after already taking the shorter less scenic route. Rødvig to Copenhagen, in our opinion needs rethinking.
We used the company’s standard touring bikes. We are both in our late 60’s and we found them reliable and rolled along at a 20 kph pace very nicely.
Hotels were all good, however, location choice were not always great. For instances, Stege the hotel was 6 kilometres past the town in the middle of an area of no services, costing riders 12 extra kms. Also the hotel in Copenhagen was a 50 minute ride from the time you entered the city to the far side of the city. This again was our longest riding day, and though it was relatively easy city riding, the time constraint of the day was a little frustrating (8 am start-7 pm finish at hotel).
We would highly recommend this tour and loved the city of Rostock, hotel at the brick factory, loads of history and farming, and seeing so many small towns along the way. In addition, you have the option to go off course and discover even more cool areas with limited extra distance.

Danube May 26
Danube Cycle Path Passau – Budapest
Personally I rarely do reviews. This one is one where I couldn’t wait for an opportunity to thank this group for providing myself and my wingman with the best ride of my life. I’ve done a lot of touring. Distance wise this is shorter than most I have done however the tour itinerary provided me with more great memories and fun riding days than any other. To sum it up my expectations were completely exceeded at every level.
