Brand new Magnifique!
Paris, Bruges and Amsterdam: Premium Bike and Boat
First, if any of you have done a boat bike tour on a Magnifique, this one is next level. (My wife and I have done several on the other Magnifique boats) The ship was only completed in April and they have outdone themselves this time. The food, the rooms, the open air bar, roof deck (lighting at night is amazing) plus if you book a suite it opens to the water. A support van meets you midday for snacks or lunch; staff was amazing, could not recommend this tour enough. Also, if you get to Bruges climb the Belfry tower (book ahead)...it's worth it. Same goes for checking out the train station in Antwerp. It is a cathedral of transportation and I've personally seen quite a few train stations in Europe.

stunning ship, staff, rooms, and vibe...
Paris, Bruges and Amsterdam: Premium Bike and Boat
Can’t recommend this ship and route enough! The food was outstanding every day, and the support van available along the route was a thoughtful touch that gave us extra peace of mind. We loved both the bikes and the cabins—they were comfortable, well-maintained, and made the entire experience feel effortless.
The cycling route was beautiful, with a wonderful mix of charming towns, scenic countryside, and memorable stops along the way. The crew was friendly, organized, and always willing to help, making the trip feel relaxed from start to finish. This was one of those vacations where every detail came together, and we’d happily book another bike and boat tour again.

Amazing Trip
Three Lakes Tour: From Geneva to Annecy
The perfect way to experience this beautiful region of France! My uncle and I had an incredible time from start to finish. While we're not avid cyclists, we're both very active, and the route struck the perfect balance between enjoyable riding and a bit of a challenge. There were also customization options for anyone looking to make the ride more demanding.
The entire process with BikeTours was smooth, quick, and responsive, making planning effortless. The local organization on the ground, was equally outstanding, communicative, helpful, and supportive throughout the trip.
I would highly recommend this tour!

Glorious holiday!
Paris, Bruges and Amsterdam: Premium Bike and Boat
From the moment we stepped aboard, we knew we had chosen the right trip. The ship was comfortable and welcoming, and the cabins were surprisingly spacious and well designed. The bikes were excellent and made each day’s ride enjoyable, whether cruising through picturesque villages or beautiful countryside.
One feature we especially appreciated was the support van along the route. It was reassuring to know help was available if needed and made the trip accessible for riders of different abilities. The meals were another highlight—fresh, flavorful, and something we looked forward to after every ride. Between the outstanding crew, great accommodations, and incredible scenery, this was an unforgettable vacation that we would recommend without hesitation.

Above Expectations
Paris to Montargis by E-Bike & Boat
Everything was great, the boat, the staff, the meals, the guiding and the trip itself. We’ve done a lot of self guided bike tours, but this was our first bike and barge, and our first guided rides. Unbelievably relaxing. Will definitely do it again soon somewhere else.

Beautiful time in the Loire

The trip was a dream. The accommodation was exceptional thoughout the trip. Only negative was that the non electric bikes are heavy and had a lot of grease on the chain and seatpost.

Delicious Rich Foods and Gorgeous Vistas
Dordogne Valley: Between the Dordogne and Lot Rivers
We had 7 days of warm weather as the backdrop to the tour of the beautiful countryside of the Dordogne region. The ride and several climbs which were challenging for me on a regular in the unusual warmth in June (especially on the 2nd day on Monday). My wife was on an electric assisted bike and was rather comfortable. We were mainly on small roads or farm roads, so we did not experience much car traffic.
We made a loop starting from Les Eyzies and went through 5 other small towns and cities. We visited mills, castles, and natural attractions such as the caverns at Padirac and prehistoric cliff dwellings in Roque Saint-Cristophe. The main attractions are the beautiful vistas over the Dordogne river valley.
We fueled our rides with full breakfasts at the hotel. For lunches we picnicked some days and ate at restaurants or cafés on the route. We were rewarded each evening with a dinner of delicious foods from the region which include duck, paté, and rocamadour cheese - all appetizingly presented.
Our guide was great: warm, conversant, and completely knowledgeable about the region. We had a rollicking time with our fellow tour members.- What was the date of your tour?

Alsace region June 26
Freiburg and the Alsatian Wine Road
We loved this trip, despite temperatures of 38 degrees rather than the 28 degrees which would have been the norm. It was well organised, our bags were always ready and waiting for us and everyone was very helpful. Two of us had removable batteries on our E-bikes and had no trouble in recharging; the other two were not able to remove theirs and found it a bit tricky in a couple of our hotels. However, it was easily sorted. Accommodation was all good, just a couple of nights out of seven that did not have air conditioning, but generally excellent. One even had a (very welcome) pool!

Last minute change
Lyon Highlights E-Bike Tour
Our tour was changed from 3h to 2h at last minute - we were told to expect a partial refund? My 1st city tour using ebike but it felt 'light' compared to similar city bike experiences in other places. This was in the middle of a heatwave so maybe that affected some logistics. First time a bike tour has not included a bottle of water .. but we did stop at a drinking fountain 😂

Enjoying the Towns of Provence
Cycling Paradise of Provence - to and from Avignon
We truly enjoyed our trip, particularly visiting the historical towns where we stayed. Sites were interesting and scenery was beautiful. Food was excellent wherever we ate.
The GPS route was easy to follow. It was mostly back roads and bike paths, but also included expressways, gravel or dirt paths, as well as asphalt roads in major disrepair which were all problematic. We had a flat tire which I changed myself with call support from the local operator, Walk Inn. They also personally provided good upfront information and support.
The hotels were fine and well located, and the towns were friendy and welcoming, except Arles which was a major disappointment. Arles was run down and shabby, and the hotel room was incredibly small and unfit for 2 people. We were quite happy with our stays in Avignon, L'Isle sur la Sorgue and St Remy, which were beautiful towns with good accommodations.
We are looking forward to our next bike trip with Biketours.com- What was the date of your tour?

Amazing bike trip!
Three Lakes Tour: From Geneva to Annecy
Most of our 150 miles of biking was on designated bike paths and the GPS was excellent, so much better than our first experience a few years ago. Our bikes were excellent and the hotels were nice, especially in Seyssel and Albertville. However the dinner in Seyssel that was included was very disappointing. The dinner at Base Camp in Albertville was wonderful! Overall we had the absolute best experience in the beautiful countryside!

Amazing experience
Palace of Versailles Paris Full Day Bike Tour with Picnic
What a wonderful way to experience an incredible part of history to truly get the sense of scale, grandeur and beauty. So much fun had by our family to experience the local market having a personalised & guided tour of all that Versailles has to offer with its amazing palace beating the queues, having the various rooms explained by our amazing guide, the the beauty of a picnic lunch in the shade of the grand canal & onto to see the beautiful gardens. So easy having been met at the train in Paris - we will be doing this tour again!

European Heat Bubble
Along the Rhône River from Geneva to Lyon
It was a well thought out trip but the first day was long and steep for Florida bikers. The accommodations were adequate and Perouge was gorgeous. Great breakfasts and the rides along the river were idyllic.

Great bike tour !
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
Excellent way to experience France ! Charming hotels, friendly locals all saying "Bonjour!", amazing cycling network, we were self-guided, but were provided with a great cycling app which told us when we were off course. Some suggestions: I wish we were told that leaving Chassey Le Camp was not the same way as our arrival...as the mountain climb was painful and we did not have an e-bike; the Fleur De Sel restaurant was not very friendly, maybe someone should check if they want to be mentioned in a booklet for cyclists; and when we arrived at noon to a couple of restaurants in Cormatin, they said they were full inside and outside despite having empty seats, we think it was because we were dirty biking through the rain, so you should warn other cyclists.

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!

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?
