    Wonderful Bike Tour

    Prague to Dresden Along the Vltava & Elbe Rivers

    Easy Route to fallow with 90% bike paths. Good notes on what to see along the way. Hotels were good but WiFi was average.

    Classy trip

    Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)

    We loved this tour. 60-70 km of flat riding during the day, lovely hotels and restaurants to experience at night. The transfer of our luggage was faultless. Some of the hotels were absolutely fabulous. One was disappointing. So much to see and experience during the day.

    Beautiful scenery and quaint villages!

    Tauern Bike Path (Krimml-Passau)

    I went on this tour as a BikeTours.com staff member. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking! The tour is 80% downhill. This made for cycling near the Austrian Alps fantastic. This tour is mostly on dedicated bike paths and quiet back roads, except for brief moments of cycling near the main road. The route maps are more basic which allow for more adventure. I would recommend this tour for a first-time traveler and casual cyclist.

    Good trip

    Bolzano to Verona: Orchards, Mountains & Timeless Culture

    Overall it was a great trip but bikes need to be upgraded to 21st century! They were dinosaur 🦕. Trip notes were good & hotels nice. We had a great trip with our friends.

    Italian cycling

    Bolzano – Verona – Venice

    the trip was very well organised and the hotel were very good. and meat lots of nice people doing the same trip. The routs were good but only having the on GPS I think we should have had a map as well as when the road was closed and no diversion in place it was difficult to get back on track. The transfer back to Bolzano was very good and again well organised. The 1st night our luggage did not turn up until 18.35 and that was after a phone call from me .The only part of the trip that we did not like was the 5 hour boat trip backwards and forwards across Lake Garda this was very long and we did not get to the hotel until 20.45. you could do a bike transfer along Garda or miss it out all together and go direct to Verona.

    Discover Lake Constance

    Lake Constance Bicycle Path

    We hired e bikes and the tour was easy -we are relatively fit but this was a holiday and we wanted to make sure it was fun-few hills but no issue with e bikes
    I would recommend adding an extra night in Lindau as it such a pretty place and gives an opportunity to check out the city

    Surrounded by Vineyards

    Mosel Bike Path: Dreamy Mosel Valley from Trier to Koblenz

    This was an easy ride along the Mosel River in the heart of the wine country. It was impressive to see the intense grape cultivation on the steep hillsides on both sides of the river as we cycled along, mostly on the flat. The scenery and small towns along the way were lovely even though, at times, you were between the road and or train tracks and the river.

    Great circular cycling route

    Lake Constance Bicycle Path

    Really enjoyed our cycle tour of lake Konstanz. The luggage pickup and drop offs were very efficient and the hotels provided secure locations to lockup our bikes. All the hotels had great breakfast buffets and mostly great rooms. The standout hotel was probably in Lindau as it was the only one with a pool and spa. We appreciated having daily recommendations for stops and sightseeing which we could plan the day before and it was fun to find random lake swim spots.

    Wonderful Experience

    Lake Constance Bicycle Path

    My wife and I went on a self guided tour and had a wonderful experience. We feel so fortunate to have found biketours.com. Overall I would rate the tour company good to excellent. The only suggestions I have are that my wife’s e-bike frame was not fit properly for her smaller body size. Secondly, we initially used Google Maps which guided us on more main roads than we expected. Not until a couple of days in to our tour did other cyclist suggest downloading a cycling app which their tour company suggested. Their app guided us on more scenic off-road trails. I now understand why when the booklet says 30 km to 40 km the shorter distance is on more main roads and not off roads. As a first timer I think biketours.com could be clearer in their correspondences or booklet and possibly suggest such apps. Overall everything was first class and we had a fantastic and memorable experience. Thank you and hopefully we will use biketour.com for future trips.

    Biking along the Rhine

    Strasbourg to Mainz: Imperial Cities and Charming Landscapes Along the Rhine

    If you are our age, 75-80, we recommend using an e-bike. We enjoyed the trip but definitely too hard with a touring bike at our age! The signage was 90% OK but there was about 10% questionable signage which needed google's help.
    In our modern times, where everybody uses a handy, all hotels should have USB outlets, which was not the case

    Beautiful

    Loire a Velo: Orleans to the Atlantic

    Of the nearly dozen bike trips we’ve taken, the sights and the bike paths were probably the best. Biketours.com was very helpful in organizing us for the trip.
    BUT THE E-BIKES WERE VERY HEAVY AND HARD TO MANAGE. LIGHTER WEIGHT E-BIKES WOULD BE SAFER.

    Unforgettable experience

    Ionian Islands Multi-sport Family Cruise

    Me, my husband and 2 daughters ages 10 and 6 enjoyed this experience! The tour guides Katerina and Isabelle were wonderful and so was the crew. The meals on board were also good. This tour is geared toward children, which is great as the bike rides are appropriately challenging for them. One thing that could have made our experience better is better sleep. Going to bed early is challenging in this environment because the rooms on the boat are right next to living quarters, yet sleep is essential especially for young kids. This could have been accomplished by adjusting the schedule to start the engine at 8 instead of 7 and possibly cruising more in the late evening instead of the first 3 hours of the day.
    Overall we had a memorable experience and loved the bike rides, unique experience of sleeping on a boat, getting to know other families, and of course the swim stops for paddle boarding, snorkeling and kayaking.

    A lovely tour

    Emerald Tour of Slovenia’s Gems

    This tour was lovely, so much beautiful countryside and fascinating historical sites.
    It was quite a bit more mountainous than the promotion description lead me to believe and on of the hotels was considerably less nice than the rest. But overall it was a great trip.

    Great location, not the best hotel choises

    Loire a Velo: Orleans to the Atlantic

    You should do better in some locations with the hotels. The last 4 day, not much to see. Is just pedaling to get to the next town. Dont do the 14 day unless you just like to pedal. Better rent a car in Nantes and continue that way to Le Croisic.
