The Hellesylt E-Bike Tour over Flofjellet is a truly memorable adventure. This tour offers breathtaking views as you ride through scenic landscapes, with the e-bike making the climb up Flofjellet both enjoyable and accessible. The well-maintained trails and stunning vistas of mountains and valleys make it a standout experience. Our guide, Leon, was so much fun to spend a time with.

· Alesund City E-Bike Tour
This tour was fantastic, the bikes were fun and easy to ride, and our guide took us all around Alesund. The e-bikes are top-quality and make tackling the hills a breeze. We saw the city's highlights and beautiful natural spots, including a mountain viewpoint and a park by the shoreline. Thank you all!

★★★★★ Nicole K. July 29, 2024Family friendly tour and great equipment
· Zabljak Four Lakes E-Bike Tour
Very kid-friendly. We brought both of our sons, one in a child seat and the other in a trailer, and they had a fantastic time. The bikes are incredibly powerful - I rode a Moustache e-bike. Their entire equipment selection is well above average.

★★★★★ Veljko Djerkovic July 29, 2024A perfect area to explore on a bike
· Sedlo Pass E-MTB Tour Zabljak
We're astounded by the beauty of Durmitor Mountain, in all its heights. We did this tour by bike, and we've done it by car before, but there's no comparison. On a bike, you truly connect with the surrounding nature. Our guide was a super cool local guy who spends six months a year in Žabljak, showcasing what his homeland has to offer. He says he never gets tired of it, even though he's been a million times. I now understand why.

★★★★★ Cheyney Lindgren July 29, 2024Excellent tour and best way to see monuments
· Washington DC Monuments at Night Bike Tour
I am so glad we did this tour. It was so informative and fun. I took my 12 and 14 year old sons and they loved it too. We had Ashley as a guide and she was excellent. She gave a clear view of what was coming next and great insights of D.C. I highly recommend.

★★★★★ Jennifer Tenford July 27, 2024Interesting countries to learn about through travel
· Baltic Capitals: Historic Cities of Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn
We usually travel independently but chose a guided tour this time to learn more about an area of the world we were unfamiliar with. Our guide, Romas, was very knowledgeable and the international group (from 8 different countries) was enjoyable to travel with. The trip is a good mix of city, countryside and seaside resort areas. Most of the cycling was scenic but we would have preferred more bicycle paths and less on roads with traffic. The biggest disappointment was the vehicle transfers. We were expecting the long distances, but the van was crowded, the seats were uncomfortable with very little legroom, and it was very hot, with poor ventilation.

★★★★★ Valerie Leifer July 27, 2024Wonderful!
· Sweden’s West Coast: Helsingborg to Gothenburg
Everything was great - from the planning (thank you for addressing every question and concern) to the execution. The bikes were terrific (though in one bike storage room someone must have knocked into my bike and messed with the front derailleur). Scenery and lodging great. Thank you!

· Mosel Bike Path: Dreamy Mosel Valley from Trier to Koblenz
Good bikes, lucky it was cool weather for most of the trip, charming hotels . We had some small problems following the maps, the day into Koblenz was boring along a highway.

Easy to use bikes and routing maps, complete with recommendations for stops. All luggage was moved on time. The route- scenery and riding surface and scenic paths- was very nicely arranged. Everything about our trip was very tidy and we had confidence in the team.

★★★★★ Clair Robbins July 22, 2024
A great trip through Germany!
· Mosel Bike Path: Dreamy Mosel Valley from Trier to Koblenz
The tour was beautiful, great scenery and easily bike able! We used the luxury package and were very impressed with the accommodations. Four out of the five hotels exceeded our expectations. Overall we had a great time biking, trying wine, and visiting castles. We found the pacing to be good. A nice amount of biking each day with time to explore along the way. Only a few pieces were stress. It was difficult to navigate the final city due to ongoing construction. And our last day involved a boat trip and it was difficult to coordinate getting the tickets for the boat. That being said, it was an amazing trip and we would go again!

★★★★★ John Presto July 22, 2024Great way to experience a portion of Palermo and its history

★★★★★ Jim and Linda LoBue July 22, 2024A rewarding challenge
· Lake Constance to Lake Maggiore
We knew that the ride would be a challenge for us, especially the climbs, but with the efficiently working e-bike assistance, we were able to make it work and that was a reward in itself. We have done multiple Europe tours through BikeTours and this was the first time that we followed an online map app. It worked very well. We were disappointed when we first arrived and realized that there would not be an orientation meeting with a live person. But, with the printed instructions and the app, it worked smoothly. A number of times during the tour we saw on our phone screen that we had made a wrong turn and were able to quickly correct the mistake and stay on track. The hotels were all first rate, with the exception of Buchs, where the hotel was undergoing extensive rehab work and we had to walk through construction zones to get to our room. Our only real complaint about the hotels was, with the exception of the Lugano hotel, they had no air conditioning. At least a fan would have helped us sleep better. But overall they were very nice and we were treated with fine hospitality. The scenery and the sites were amazing. It was a wonderful break from the sweltering California summer heat.

★★★★★ Bruce Mitchell July 21, 2024
Beautiful Tour of the west coast.
· Sweden’s West Coast: Helsingborg to Gothenburg
A wonderful way to explore the Swedish west coast. The bike trail is easy to follow, relatively flat, and was almost exclusively on a paved trail. The trail winds its way along the coastline, with distances between towns very manageable. We stayed in excellent accommodation with lots of time each day to explore. All in all a fantastic family bike trip.

★★★★★ Richard Olson July 21, 2024Enjoyable journey
· Atlantic Coast of France
Once you have seen the major tourist attractions in France, this is a great way to see and experience smaller towns and the Atlantic coastline. Many uncrowded beaches- this area is popular for French tourists but without the crush of international tourists. You will interact with many that speak relatively little English- for us, this made the trip more interesting.
Our bikes were reliable, well-fitted, and well-tuned. We encountered no mechanical difficulties. (If you do get a flat tire, you are expected to know how to deal with it, which was fine with us.)
The routing was excellent, with mostly car-free paths or single lane roads that had only farming-related (slow) vehicles. Mostly asphalt surfaces, occasional crushed limestone, and rarely dirt paths. Many options for stopping at excellent cafes or restaurants, including one place we found out (upon leaving) has a Michelin star. The north to south routing is desirable, as the scenery gets better each day. The routing app worked extremely well, but it was nice to also have the printed maps as a backup.
Not crowded- there were a moderate number of other bikers, including some long distance riders (Norway to Spain).
We enjoyed having our hotels chosen for us- this added an element of surprise and anticipation to each day. Accommodations were varied in style, but they were all outstanding- with excellent breakfasts, and located in nice towns with many restaurant options. Hotels all welcomed bike-tour customers (generally treated us like VIPs.)

★★★★★ Wei-Wei Huang July 21, 2024Great experience.
· Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)
It was our first biking tour as a family. The bikes were in great condition. We had one loose handle bar that we were able to tighten. We never needed to pump for the whole trip. The views were fantastic and we had a lot of fun as a family, especially with two teenage boys. We loved the small towns along the way. Most hotels were great with wonderful views (we prefer local hotels). We will do more in the future. Thank you.
