Great trip
Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)
Overall it was a great trip. We had standard bikes and never had a problem with them. Our bags arrived with no problems.
It was lovely riding along the Danube and seeing different small towns in Austria. It was very hot when we were there with a head wind so some hard days but doable.

Slay Down the Danube
Danube Delights: Biking through Four Countries
An incredible way to see the Danube and explore the country side of Germany and Austria. Unfortunately due to weather our boat was stuck in Vienna, but our cruise director Leslie made sure we hit every spot on the itinerary and organised tours to take us into Bratislava and Budapest. The meals were incredible onboard, and always served with a smile thanks to Khatti and Mohammed. Our room attendant Nabil always made sure our cabin was well kept and cleaned it so efficiently. It was incredible to have the sailors not only guiding us safely down the Danube but sorting out bikes for us everyday. Everyone on board was incredible and it was an awesome experience. The cycling app to guide you around was so easy to use and the routes were so easy to ride on.

Staff and the route were just excellent. The hotels were great. I would have a suggestion for a local company, but it does not detract from the experience.

Trip of a lifetime
Danube Delights: Biking through Four Countries
A bike-and-boat tour is truly the perfect way to experience the beautiful Danube! Our barge, The Vivienne, was spectacular, and the crew and guides were absolutely wonderful throughout the trip.
We cycled mainly along flat, scenic bike paths, making it easy to relax, enjoy the views, and take in the beautiful surrounding countryside. Each day brought something new, from charming towns and stunning landscapes to fascinating castle ruins and historic sites.
What made the experience even more special was learning about the region’s rich and fascinating history from our incredibly knowledgeable guides. Their stories and insights brought the places we visited to life and made every day feel like an adventure.
The combination of cycling during the day and returning to the comfort of The Vivienne in the evening was fantastic. It was the perfect balance of adventure, relaxation, beautiful scenery, and history.An unforgettable way to explore the Danube — we absolutely loved every moment!

Fantastic Family Holiday
Rhine Bike Path: Mainz to Cologne
What a wonderful way to experience Germany as a family of 6 with young adult 'children'. Some days of cycling were shorter than expected, allowing more time to ride the cable cars and experience the vineyards or charming villages. The interactive maps were a great help and the short descriptions provided more than enough information for us.

Beautiful countryside
Tauern Bike Path (Krimml-Passau)
Our fifth time riding this gorgeous bike tour. One can never tire of the beautiful mountains, waterfall, small farms, villages, orchards, etc. The hotels were all high quality and located on or near the bike path. The bikes were in excellent condition. The coordination between Bike Tours. Com and the local tour company was superb.

E-Biking Makes It Easy to Experience the Beauty of the Dolomites
Bicycle Paths of the Dolomites (based in one hotel)
E-Biking is the perfect way to experience the Dolomites and another option to just hiking in the area. Hiking and biking are both popular so recommend the shoulder seasons of June and September. The Hotel Laurin's had a fabulous 6 course dinner every night, so don't expect to lose weight on this trip. The bikes were top notch and very easy to pedal even without e-assist. Great value and would highly recommend this trip.

Really special experience
Greenways of Girona Family Tour 5 Nights
We had our 9 year old on her own bike and 4 year old on back of dads. Really special experience. Between meals and biking and cooling off at pool or river from hot June sun there wasn’t much time in the day for sightseeing. Would have stayed more nights in Girona and st feliu if we did it again.

Holand with friends anf family
Best of Holland South: Canals, Windmills & Historic Towns
This was a great exerience! 2 families with teeangers, and we all had a great time. The rides on Holland are very easy, all flat terrain, navigation is very simple.
The ride is great but on the fort 2 days it does follow a lot of car ways, so you do get to pedal a log time next to hignways and roads in very long straight lines. Our first trip in Austria the cycle paths did go well into forests, and areas where you could only cicle or walk, with lots small little paths that made it very unique as you did feel that if you where not in a bike you would had never seen those areas. Never the less this was beautiful, and it did get better every day, scenery, riden a small ferry, and moni adventures like taht that actually makes this ttip more fun. All very well organized, hotels were on the top end and all where really great, charming, great locations once you were in the actual city or town, which these were all amazing! We added going oof the path and having lunch on the actual beach on our last day, and that was great! It made us really appreciate all sort of terrains in Holland. We loved it!- What was the date of your tour?

Relaxing way to take in the variety and history along the Danube
Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)
Good daily distances on an eBike. Allowing time to stop and take in historical sites, cuisine and landscape.
Brand new and well equipped e-bikes. The live navigation map was very good. - ★★★★★ Sharon Bergren
European destination which is a mix of well defined bicycle paths and options for hiking.

Our self-guided bike trip app provided excellent scenic bicycling routes which we coupled with hiking trails, gondola rides to mountain tops, and informative tours of castles and historic sites.

Danube bike trail
Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)
Our bike trip was memorable! We enjoyed riding through all the charming towns on the trail and the beautiful scenery. We opted for the self guided tour and the only drawback was that the Pedalo app never showed how many miles we had traveled or miles remaining until the next destination.

Trip to remember!
Lake Constance Bicycle Path
Four of us did the self guided tour around Lake Constance. The scenery and the towns were so cute! Three nights of the hotel stays were great, but unfortunately two of them were well below standard. When doing this trip make sure you say that you don't want to stay in Vis-à-vis in Lindau (right opposite the train station) and in Hotel Frohsinn in Arbon (currently busy with construction) and the noise started at 7:15am :( Will I recommend doing this bike ride: Yes!!! The bikes were in great condition and you will have the opportunity to eat a lot of wonderful gelato! Oh, all the hotels gave breakfast and it was great!!

Amazing adventure
Bicycle Paths of the Dolomites (based in one hotel)
This trip far exceeded my expectations. The bike tour staff was available and helpful prior to the trip. The hotel Lauren where we stayed was immaculate and the meals were those of a Michelin star restaurant. We hadn’t expected dinner to be included so that was a really nice surprise. The app for our phone was very useful and the routes we rode were each unique and allowed us to explore different parts of the dolomites. We rode E. bikes and were appreciative of the assist. The bikes arrived at our hotel in perfect, well maintained condition. I have recommended this trip to our friends who ride. I can’t imagine how it could have been improved.
