★★★★★ John Foster 11 months agoBeautiful bit challenging :)
· Cycling Sardinia's Rugged Beauty
Sardinia has long been on our "bucket list" and the scenery, wine, and food did not disappoint! The 3 different accommodations chosen were all great and each was a bit different. The staffs were great at all 3 and the on site coordinators were terrific! The routes were well laid out and Ride with GPS was a breeze to follow (though I use the app at home all the time) Some of the off-road trails were a bit rougher than anticipated and so they took a bit longer to complete than the estimates.

Enjoyed staying in one hotel for the week
· Bicycle Paths of the Dolomites (based in one hotel)
Since we are all paying the same price for the tour, I was disappointed that we all didn’t get the route package as there was only one per room. I shared a room with a friend and we both didn’t ride at the same time and the same speed and there were times when we were separated and missed the correct trail directions because of lack of route information. The local tour company would not supply emergency repair tools if there was a flat tire while we were in an area that was not accessible to contact anyone for help. Since we had ebike’s we asked to coverer the digital display and phone, but they didn’t supply a phone holder for the bike.

★★★★★ Luke J. 11 months agoAmazing!
· Tulum 3 Cenotes MTB Tour with Ziplining, Canoeing, Snorkeling & Lunch
Our guide, a local from Tulum, was friendly and well-informed about the area. The biking route was manageable, taking us through a mix of jungle trails, dirt roads, and some city riding. We always felt safe and the guide went over hand signals and safety before we left the shop.
The Cenotes were crystal clear and full of wildlife like fish and turtles! I didn't know what to expect but this tour exceeded my expectations and was a highlight of my trip to Tulum.
What to bring: A small backpack with essentials like a towel, sunscreen, and definitely bug spray—it's a lifesaver in the jungle!

★★★★★ Dean Ross 11 months agoGood ride Bolzano to Venice.
· Bolzano – Verona – Venice
Good routing along mostly paved paths through vineyards and orchards away from busy roads. Some of the 70km days were long in the near 40 degree heat, maybe a better tour for Sept. We paid for upgraded hotels some were but not all. Hotel Clarinet in Garda has very small rooms, they also don’t staff the front desk at night and there was no emergency contact given. This all became a reality when we went to leave the room in the morning and the deadbolt on the door just kept spinning. Called the front desk but there was no answer, luckily we had a bike repair tool that we were able to use to break out. Also worth noting that the ferry ride down the lake is a 4-5 hour trip.

★★★★★ Sharen & Keith from Vancouver, Canada 11 months agoThis was a great informational and enjoyable tour.
· Glasgow City & Clyde Bridges Bike Tour
Dillon was an exceptional tour guide! As there were just the 2 of us who are over 70 but quite fit, he set the pace to make it so enjoyable for us. We saw lots of green space along the river Clyde and many interesting sites. ( we went back to Riverside Museum the next day...very cool!)
He gave lots of information at various stops.... We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this tour & Dillon!

★★★★★ Susan Roberts 11 months agoDisappointing tour
· Munich & the Bavarian Lakes
This was my least favorite bike tour of the 6 or 7 I have done. Some of the trails were fine but too many of them were loose gravel. All six of us are experienced bikers but one person fell on the gravel damaging the bike and another person fell twice due to loose gravel. The poor quality of the gravel trails was very disappointing.

Amazing experience
· Camino de Santiago: From Leon to Santiago (Premium)
Highly recommend this trip. The scenery and route are a nice mix of easier and challenging days, and doing the “self guided” option gave us some flexibility, but we were still confident in the route/directions. Our e-bikes were excellent. The hotels were also excellent - a mixture of boutique and traditional commercial lodging, but all clean and comfortable. Leon and Astorga were especially amazing. Loved it!

Incredible trip!
· Bolzano – Verona – Venice
This route exceeded our expectations! Each day had so much to see and experience. We so much enjoyed these smaller Italian cities with amazing vibes and hardly any crowds. And the ability to ride up and down the streets and take it in on a bike was a real gift. We were able to see so much more than on foot and go to places we never would’ve seen on a train or taxi. We loved this tour so much! So much architecture, so much history! I especially loved the transition from mountains to Mediterranean. The bikes we got on this trip had less comfortable seats than our last bike tour. Wish we brought our padded shorts! Also, highly recommend the e-bikes. Made the trip so enjoyable. Might have had some difficulty on regular bike. Do-able but quite tiring for a casual cyclist.

· · Danube Delights: Cycling and Cruising in the Footsteps of Royalty
We had a wonderful time in Austria, and sailing down the Danube on the Swiss Crown. There were some many beautiful sites to see when walking or riding a bike through the different cities. The Swiss Crown is a beautiful ship, with a great staff.

★★★★★ Gretchen Jones 11 months agoAmazing trip up the west coast of Sweden
· Sweden’s West Coast: Helsingborg to Gothenburg
This is a must see part of the world!! This was my fifth bicycle trip in Europe and one of the best. The west coast of Sweden was absolutely stunning - beautiful beaches, cute villages, wonderful countryside. The people were tremendous. Language was not an issue. The bicycle trail is well traveled and easy to follow. It was a wonderful experience.

★★★★★ Ingrid Mahoney 11 months agoSolo and Sublime
· Lake Constance Bicycle Path
My first longer bike trip and I was a solo 59 year old woman in Europe. I loved it. The scenery, physical activity and options for exploring all the wonderful cultural aspects Europe has to offer was a perfect balance for me. The hotels were all nice and more than 1/2 were really excellent. The bike was well equipped and in top shape. I had only one day of rain but the public transportation is so amazing and bringing your bike is not a problem I had no worries. I would recommend this trip to all my friends. If they are not very active I would recommend the electric bike it is a perfect option.

★★★★★ Cheryl Johnston 11 months agoFantastic Holiday
· · Ionian Islands Multi-sport Family Cruise
I had a great time. Tour guides, Chryssa and Katerina we knowledgable, helpful and lovely. The crew were very accommodating and helpful. The food was great. I loved swimming straight of the boat into that lovely water. I would definitely recommend. The rides are short as advertised, but unless you are very good at steep hills, get an ebike.
