★★★★★ Nico Gillis
A great way to start exploring Europe by bike!
Prague to Dresden Along the Vltava & Elbe Rivers
This trip was great! The route we followed was very doable for everyone in the group, with mostly paved trails and followed well-posted rivers. Our hotels were each unique, charming and comfortable. Every city we stayed in had things so see on a short walk and all the meals were great! Our guides were knowledgeable, kind, and great company. Every day felt unique and the group got closer with every ride and shared dinner together. This trip was definitely a great memory that I will cherish for years to come.

Great way to see beautiful architecture and small villages.
Prague to Dresden Along the Vltava & Elbe Rivers
This trip was the perfect way to explore the Czech Republic. We enjoyed the bike paths along the rivers and all the many sites along the way. We especially loved visiting Terezin, near Litomerice. It was a sad reminder of the experiences of Jews during WWII but an important part of Czech history. The short hill on the first day was a bit of a challenge but slow and steady made it possible. All the other trails were flat and easy to ride. The hotels were all interesting and located in a very walkable area to see the village or dine out. Our initial contact with the bike company in Prague, Daniel, was an eager and young new employee. He fitted us with our bikes, and gave us paperwork and some good tips. Overall it was a great ride and we'd recommend it for families or first time bike tourists.

Great way to see the countryside!
Prague to Dresden Along the Vltava & Elbe Rivers
This was my first biking tour and was such an amazing way to travel from town to town. The route was a mix of bike trail, gravel/dirt roads, and streets. The bikes were in excellent condition and handled the minor off roading with minimal effort. Having our baggage moved from hotel to hotel was seamless and so convenient.

Very Beautiful Trip
Prague to Dresden Along the Vltava & Elbe Rivers
Everything went as planned. The route from Prague to Dresden was stunning and each little town had its own charm and history. The hotels/pensions were perfectly nice, and each served a great breakfast to start the day. Bike Tours did a great job transferring the luggage, addressing any equipment issues, and picking great spots for our nightly dinners.

Surpassed our expectations
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
If you enjoy gourmet meals,wine, fresh air and exercise, you will love this tour. Perfect combination of smaller bed and breakfast and larger hotels. We opted for the supper meals included and we were so pleased with the restaurants chosen. Every meal will stay in my memory forever. We enjoyed less Kms per day ,which allowed us enough time for exploring, afternoon stops in cafe's for wine and salad with chèvre chaud! The scenery was beautiful and the biking was mostly easy on flat paved services. The tour operator was also very helpful when we had a issue with a squeaking bike wheel and replaced the bike for us promptly . We loved this tour and would highly recommend.

FORMIDABLE!!!
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
Perfect way to enjoy the Burgundy Region. Experienced a variety of scenery, along a canal, through Vineyards and quaint, charming little villages. Being on self-guided gave us more flexibility to explore and take advantage of the wonderful food and wines which were always so well presented, matched and served by friendly staff. Being on La Voie Verte was also a plus, well marked and away from traffic. A Memorable experience - definitely recommend this tour. Thank you Biketours!!

I've been waiting many years to take this trip... definitely worth it!
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
The perfect way for me to experience the French wine country. Beautiful scenery, all bicycle trails and country roads with very little traffic, quaint villages, interesting places to see along the way, and the hotels and meal packages were superb.

Fabulous trip through wine country
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
My wife and I very much enjoyed our trip. Very manageable stages done with normal peddle bikes. we in our mid 50's, generally in good shape but very casual cyclists. Interesting stops & scenery the whole way, and wonderful food and wine. Good mix of remote and rural stops as well as larger towns (Beane & Cluny). The end stop (Macon) is the least interesting, I don't suggest extra time there, but you are right next to the train station for a quick exit. Overall, highly recommended!

A wonderful and nice surprise!
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
Honestly... as we arrived in Beaune, after five days in the intense Paris, we got depressed and were about to give up on the tour. It was Sunday and almost everything was closed and there was almost nobody in the streets. As we went for a walk around this curious and medieval city, it started to look interesting. We decided to, at least, try the bike ride scheduled for the next day. And so it all began. The track, the field covered with vineyards, wheat, hay and sunflower, the small villages, the cozy pre-summer weather, enchanted us. Some winery were opened, so we could do some tasting and buy some peculiar wines, which gave additional brightness to the trip. Locals were very kind. The physical exercise itself... it all changed our minds completely. So, as to enjoy even more, we opted for electric bikes. Each day was a 5 to 6 hour ride full of discoveries and stop-overs, different kinds of tracks, many new old villages and delightful sceneries, sprinkled by wonderful chardonnay and pinot noir. Charming places to picnic, many photos, lots of tastes and smells. Resting in comfortable beds and dinning the Bourgogne gastronomy. It was not the trip of our dreams. It was a dream itself!

Beer and Wine Along the Rhine with Martin Luther as a Travel Companion
Strasbourg to Mainz: Imperial Cities and Charming Landscapes Along the Rhine
My wife and I have previously done the BikeTours.com tour from Munich to Salzburg as well as the Loire Garden and Chateaux Tour and greatly enjoyed both of those. We invited good friends who are also cyclists to join us on this tour. All of us agreed that it was one of our best vacations ever and having
friends riding with us added to the pleasure. We do the tours "self guided" and enjoy the freedom of being able to explore off route if we want to. For example, on this trip we rode up into the vineyards near Nierstein, Germany which was not on the route but gave us some beautiful views and a wine tasting at the Huff Winery. There were a few days with some light rain but nothing that we were not prepared for. We stayed in the Category A hotels which were all of excellent quality and located close to the attractions we were interested in seeing. The written directions and the "E" stickers on posts along the way were often missing or confusing but the GPS offered by BikeTours worked very well. I would strongly recommend that anyone doing this tour "self-guided" absolutely plan to use the GPS mapping. The local tour company, Eurobike, does an excellent job. We have never had even the first problem with the bicycles or any of the services they provide.- What was the date of your tour?

Excellent Bike Tour!
Strasbourg to Mainz: Imperial Cities and Charming Landscapes Along the Rhine
My husband and I had a fabulous time on the Strasbourg, France to Mainz, Germany bike tour September 6-13th. We arrived a day early and loved walking around and exploring the beautiful city of Strasbourg.
Our bikes and information were dropped off the day before our trip and we were off early the next morning. We would highly recommend having a data plan to download the GPS maps offered to your phone. These maps show you exactly where you are at all times! Would also be very beneficial to have a cell phone holder for the handlebars on the bikes.
We rode mostly on bikepaths and trails and occasionally on roadways. The terrain was mostly flat and winding around farmer’s fields, through towns and cities, and along or near the Rhine. Our favorite town was Speyer, Germany the day we were on our way to Heidelberg. The main street had beautiful, colorful buildings, a lovely, church, quaint shops, and a fabulous clock tower.
The hotels provided were clean, centrally located, and had friendly and helpful staff. Silka at Hotel Schwert in Rastatt went above and beyond helping us with all of our questions and requests! Thank you Silka!
After our first day of our Eurobike tour, we were fortunate to have met another couple also travelling on the same tour. We decided to travel together and the four of us spent the rest of our trip biking and having a great time together!
This was our first bike trip and we loved it! The weather was beautiful and the biking experience was fabulous!
