Historical-Adevnture- Amazing guides
Danube River and Black Sea
This bike tour was a history lesson on wheels. We started by visiting the WW1 Museum for an amazing experience. Deyan, the owner of the tour company and our guide and daily history lesson instructor was outstanding! His knowledge and enthusiasm of the local history came shining through in his daily lessons. The ride takes you past a large variety of terrain from rolling fields of corn, sunflower and wheat to large orchards of apricots, cherries and peaches. The riding surface included asphalt, dirt and gravel roads. At one point we cycled on an ancient Roman road along the Danube River. We experienced amazing views while riding along the coast off the Black Sea. We had two spur of the moment stops to visit with some locals making traditional Bulgarian Lutenitsa. The locals were eager to share the tradition of making this delicious Bulgarian treat.
Romania and Bulgaria are two countries that are climbing in tourism. Plan your visit before they become new tourists hot spots. You won’t regret it.
As always bike tours are a great way to experience local culture and make new friends at a relaxed pace.
PS- Deyan is an awesome photographer.

San Francisco's Golden Gate Park Bike Tour
If you’re visiting San Francisco, do not miss this! Golden Gate Park is so much bigger and more varied than I expected — from lush gardens to wild bison, it’s a feast for the senses. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure we had plenty of photo stops. This was the highlight of my trip!

Very Enjoyable Golden Gate Park ride!
San Francisco's Golden Gate Park Bike Tour
This tour was awesome! Riding through Golden Gate Park felt like cruising through different worlds — from peaceful pagodas to herds of bison (yes, real ones!). The e-bike made it easy to cover so much ground, and the windmill stop was totally Instagram-worthy. 10/10 would ride again!

San Francisco's Golden Gate Park Bike Tour
As someone who loves learning while traveling, this tour checked all the boxes. Cycling between the California Academy of Sciences and the Conservatory of Flowers gave me a fresh appreciation for how diverse Golden Gate Park really is. The guide’s stories about San Francisco’s history and the quirky spirit of Hippie Hill made the park come alive in ways I’d never imagined.

Great fun through an iconic American park.
San Francisco's Golden Gate Park Bike Tour
Our family absolutely loved this Golden Gate Park bike tour! The kids were thrilled to see the bison up close, and we all enjoyed wandering through the Japanese Tea Garden — it felt like stepping into another world. The pace was easy, the guide was patient, and it was the perfect mix of nature, history, and fun for all ages.

stunning...but get an e-bike unless you are in great shape.
National Parks of Dalmatia by Bike/E-bike and Boat
Cool towns, friendly people, food is more on seafood side other ships can have more variety apparently. I've done this route - or variations of it - a few times. Highly recommend this e-bike tour to see the "game of thrones" part of Europe. Definitely go for a swim in the Adriatic.

German Influences in a Very Different Culture
Alsace Wine Country
This was our tenth European bike tour. We have pedaled many of the countries around Germany, but never in France. Beginning in Strasbourg, the rich history and architecture of the region take their grasp. The first two days were flat and easy, enjoying the quiet between cornfields and canals. The quaint villages along the way are filled with stone and timbered houses, cobblestone streets and ponds with serene swans. Some of the hill country through the grape/wine road presented challenges, but nothing that could not be accomplished. We enjoyed the German influence on the local cuisine, along with the famous wines of the Alsace.

Unique Italy
Piedmont Region: The Italian Garden of Eden
The bike company was great! Excellent notice on all necessary details of where bikes would be, how to operate bikes and how to contact bike company in the event of an emergency.
Which we did need for my husband. They were great and took very good care of him!
Routes were good, not all on bike trails, but on roads with traffic, gravel and some spots poor maintenance.
Hotels and food were good!.
WC were hard to find and were far and few between.- What was the date of your tour?

Wonderful biking trip
UNESCO Sites of Albania
Amazing way to explore Albania. We were self-guided, but the guides were helpful in ensuring communicating with us to ensure that our luggage was being transported. Hotels ranged greatly in quality, some were great, all were adequate. Location of hotels was great as well. Bikes were great quality and had no issues (one flat tire). Biking was on roads, some were quite busy. Would have been nice to have more off road biking, but I'm not sure that Albania has those facilities. First bike tour for all of us, and I would definitely do more.

Bodensee Views & Sights
Lake Constance Bicycle Path
We had a bit of a slow start with the bicycle company & the bicycles. They were not as prepared as the former bike tour/company we biked with the week before.
The majority of the trails were great! Some gravel, but not bad.
The tour itself was fantastic! The cities and things and places we saw were amazing! The hotels and breakfasts were top notch!!
Convenience of WC was great!
Would highly recommend this bike tour!- What was the date of your tour?

A joyous ride
Gaudi’s Barcelona E-Bike Tour
We took this tour with our two kids (ages 4 and 6). The younger one rode in a bike seat, while the older enjoyed the ride on a trailer with his dad. The stops along the way were a perfect chance for them to unwind, especially the one at Barceloneta. We even stopped at the Sagrada Família, where they spent 20 minutes enjoying the playground in front.
Our guide, a young and proud Catalan, gave us a wonderful introduction to Catalan history and traditions. The city itself is perfect for biking: it’s flat, spacious, and easy to navigate. As a family, this tour gave us a great overall impression of Barcelona. Outside of the tour, we had been focusing mostly on kid-friendly sights, so it was amazing to also discover some really cool neighborhoods we would have otherwise missed.
Truly a gem and I’d recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

Beautiful bike trip!
Medieval Villages of Catalonia
This is my second European bike trip with bike tours and it was even better than the first. Daniel from Creative Catalonia really went above and beyond. He met us at our hotel with the bikes, a reusable bag, water bottles, a map and a GPS. He made sure the bikes fit us and that we knew where to start. He was a very thoughtful communicator. The bike rides are low mileage but it is hilly, with gorgeous views. The rides are mostly on bike trails with about 30% being packed dirt/gravel. The gps was awesome and Daniel included places of where to stop to see interesting sites, recommendations for lunches or dinners, etc. His recommendations were great and very appreciated. The hotels that we stayed in were lovely and we really enjoyed them.
My only tip to bikers would be to bring your own helmet. I used the one provided which was sufficient but it didn’t have mips technology which is really standard for helmets in the US and would be the safest.
And for bike tours & Daniel — I’d suggest figuring out an alternative for the ride from Monells to Girona if you’re concerned about the safety of the bikers. I would have loved another day of biking and near the sea.
This was a great tour, lovely hotels, nice e-bikes, fabulous recommendations, easy to use GPS, I would highly recommend this tour. We went in mid September and the weather was hot and beautiful.- What was the date of your tour?

Stuart is a pro
Best of Stirling E-Bike Tour
Stuart was punctual & very informative. His communication skills are top notch. I'm older & had not been on a bike in "several" years. He was patient, helpful & personable. He made me feel like I was in good hands. This young man will go places.
He is proud of his country & it shows. We visited all of the things I wanted to see, & more. I definitely recommend booking his services.- What was the date of your tour?

Worth the return to complete additional Dolomites adventures
Bicycle Paths of the Dolomites (based in one hotel)
It's often said that one cannot return and expect the same or better results. On our second self-guided tour, we accomplished at least three new activities we didn't have time for last year. We took the Toblach/Dobbiaco public bus to Lago de Braies and hiked around the lake (about 2 hours); we rode our bikes from Bruneck/Brunico to Sand in Taufers; and we parked our bikes near the Sol Paradiso Hotel in San Candido and hiked to the Jora Refugio for a delightful lunch and killer views. The Hotel Laurin (again our second stay) was just as lovely, the weather was cooperative (only one rainy day), but the schedule we received had incorrect dates and confusion resulted. In Lienz, we were waiting at the designated place with two other German couples, but no shuttle. After 20 minutes of waiting, one of the Germans called the office and was told the shuttle was on its way. We waited . . . no shuttle. He called again, and we were told we were in the wrong place (all six of us, really)?? We pedaled back to the taxi stand at the Lienz Train statin, where a private taxi with a bike trailer was waiting. The driver didn't even know where we were going (fortunately we were all going back to Toblach). Not sure what happened, but the transfers were either non existent, late or we were told to take the train back (we did this from Bruneck). Not a good look. Made some suggestions for future self-guided tours with transfers with the TO's office.

Long awaited bike trip
Between Frankfurt and Bamberg on the Main River
Guide and crew aboard the Merlin was fantastic. They were courteous, knowledgeable, hard working and accommodating. Weather not the best but it didn't dampen spirits! Really enjoyed the unique experience of a boat/ bike trip to see Germany. Would definitely consider doing it again !

Everything we hoped for and more!
Croatian Vineyards and Villages of Undiscovered Istria
The self-guided bike tour (Undiscovered vineyards and villages of Istria) was amazing. Our tour guide was excellent; he provided all the necessary information before we started and ensured the bikes were set up properly. The touring bikes we had were great, the maps were accurate and the accommodation excellent. Everything went according to plan and would definitely recommend this tour.
