Dream views of the Golden Gate!
Scenic Golden Gate Bridge San Francisco Bike Tour
This tour is the ultimate way to experience the Golden Gate Bridge—cycling right across it was absolutely breathtaking. The route was gorgeous, and the free time in charming Sausalito was the perfect relaxing end to the day.

Sausalito Return is a Must
Scenic Golden Gate Bridge San Francisco Bike Tour
The ride down the coast to Sausalito was gorgeous, and the town itself is so charming with its maritime history. We highly recommend taking the ferry back to Fisherman’s Wharf for the amazing bay views.

Movie views gallore
Highlights of San Francisco Bike Tour
If you guide knows his way around this can be a very flat ride, if not and you are not a regular cyclist I suggest an e-bike. This tour has tons of views that most of us have seen in movies or on television for years. if you have never been to San Francisco this is a great way to see a lot of it in not too much time. I suggest spending as little time as possible in Fishermans Wharf (it's very touristy and not really what San Francisco is all about). For a fantastic local post ride beer check out Zeitgeist in the Mission. (It's in the Mission on Duboce and Valencia if memory serves.). Zeigeist is local institution that is unlike any beer garden you've ever been to.

Super interesting and fun experience, highly recommended!
Best of San Francisco E-Bike Tour
John was our tour guide and he was super funny and thought us a lot about San Francisco and it’s history. If you only bike/walk you would miss all this interesting information. The tour gave us a great impression of the city. John always gives you the opportunity to take pictures and take breaks if needed (we didn’t, but it still made us feel good and looked after). 10/10 would do it again!

Sublime SF Scenery
Best of San Francisco E-Bike Tour
Cycling the lush Panhandle of Golden Gate Park and cruising past Hayes Valley was simply beautiful. We felt so immersed in each neighborhood, getting much closer to the famous murals and sights than we ever would in a car or bus. A truly sublime and unforgettable experience!

Effortless Fun, Must-Do Tour!
Best of San Francisco E-Bike Tour
Our guide was fantastic, full of great stories about Haight-Ashbury and the Painted Ladies. The e-bikes were a game-changer, making this feel like a fun, casual glide through the city rather than a strenuous workout. 10/10 recommend for a brilliant sightseeing day!

A glorious park to ride through
San Francisco's Golden Gate Park Bike Tour
Not that a sunny day is a requirement but it really makes this place shine. I suggest avoiding this bike ride June - August unless you really like biking in chilly fog and wind. Putting all of those things aside, Golden Gate park is a magical place for a bike ride with a ton of cool history. Make sure you check out Ocean Beach, the tea garden, top of the DeYoung museum tower, Hippy Hill, and I suggest a post ride beer at the Kezar Pub on the east end of Golden Gate Park.

highlights of GG Park
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.

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!

Nice trip! We had a really good time.
Danube Discovery: Pedaling from Germany to Austria
We've done numerous bike trips around Europe but wanted to try a bike and boat this time. It's not a deluxe trip, but exceeded our expectations. The Prinzessin Katharina is older, but very well maintained, with traditional style decor. We had stayed in Passau the night prior and the taxi ride to the harbor was quick and easy. We had an upper level cabin, which was compact but had space to move around and decent storage. I peaked into the main deck cabins as well, which were laid out a little differently but seemed about the same size, with maybe a little less closet space. Don't excpect many outlets for charging your devices, as there are only a couple in the cabin. There is also a restaurant and a lounge with a bar on the upper deck. The sun deck is spacious, with lots of loungers, tables and chairs, and some covered space for shade.
There is assigned seating in the dining room for the whole trip. Most of the passengers were German speaking, but they made a good effort to put English speaking guests at the same table. Breakfast was a pretty standard buffet, with breads, pastries, fruits and juices, as well as a few warm dishes with eggs, sausage, bacon. They also let you pack a lunch from the buffet choices. The dinner menu had 3 or 4 entree choices each night, along with a couple of starters and a couple of desserts. The food, while not gourmet, was very good. No beverages were included, so you had to pay even to have water with your dinner. There is a good selection of wine and cocktails available from the bar. Coffee and tea were provided at breakfast.
The daily meetings to provide info on the next day's route were useful, with separate meetings provided for German and English. As expected, the bike routes kept mostly to dedicated bike paths or segregated bike lanes along roads. You rarely have to deal with much traffic, and the route is generally very easy to follow. The rental bikes provided were quite good, and comfortable.
We only did one of their optional tours, going up to Schloss Greinburg in Grein. On a day when the schloss is normally closed, the tour company was able to arrange this tour, and we enjoyed it.
What really made the trip so good was the crew and all of their efforts. The dining room and bar servers, housekeeping, the front desk staff, and the deck crew responsible for loading and unloading all the bikes were all outstanding, friendly and helpful. Our cruise director Monica did a great job keeping eveything running smoothly.
We enjoyed our trip despite some unseasonably cold, rainy and windy weather part of the time. We're looking forward to planning another bike and boat trip. -

Great bike tour along the Danube
Danube Discovery: Pedaling from Germany to Austria
The barge was very comfortable and the food excellent. The staff was very helpful and ready to help. The bikes were ready for us every morning on the dock. The program was well thought out and we appreciated the excursions that were available.

Well organized, very enjoyable trip
Danube Discovery: Pedaling from Germany to Austria
The bike routes were very well marked. Additionally, we were provided with excellent maps and an excellent gps route guidance tool. We were initially given e-bikes which we had not requested but they were immediately switched out to regular bikes. The crew were all very helpful and nice. The ship was quite comfortable. Food was very good.
All around a very nice experience.

Unforgettable trip, memories that will last a lifetime!
Dutch Hanseatic Cities, Harbor Towns & Natural Wonders by Bike and Boat
The Best Way to Experience Dutch Culture in the Netherlands is soaking up all the culture and vast landscapes by bike. The towns were beautiful and the routes did not have much traffic. The majority of this tour is flat and takes place on quite bike routes which are very scenic and calm. The guides were more than helpful, patient and knowledgeable assuring everyone in the group was safe and offered knowledge about the areas (thanks Hans!). The accommodations aboard the Maginifique II were more than I expected, very comfortable and clean. The crew was fantastic and so much fun! Our meals were superb as the chef was amazing. I definitely recommend this tour for anyone who wants to explore Holland. Thank you Biketours.com, great job!

A tour of appreciation for authentic Holland
Dutch Hanseatic Cities, Harbor Towns & Natural Wonders by Bike and Boat
This trip should be your one-stop-shop when seeking to experience authentic Holland. We spent a week sailing along the country's grand rivers, watching the authentic Dutch countryside drift by outside the window and biking out to discover the stunning architecture of the historical Hanseatic towns, as well as Amsterdam on the first and final day.
Our tour guides, Hans and Tom, almost felt like family by the end of the trip. Hans was upbeat and full of passion and Tom was full of recommendations when we explored each town.
The atmosphere on board the boat was great and the staff were exceptional. All of them were friendly, full of fun, and helpful so mealtimes were brilliant (as was the food). The boat was extremely clean and our cabins were very comfortable.
The biking itself was very enjoyable and at a pace that meant everyone could enjoy the experience of cycling and soaking up the rural views. My favourite sections were in the atmospheric forests with the dancing trees - we went in autumn so the colours were incredible!
Overall, this was a relaxing and comfortable way to bike and boat through Holland.

Authentic Holland trip
Dutch Hanseatic Cities, Harbor Towns & Natural Wonders by Bike and Boat
I absolutely loved this tour! Biking through the historic Dutch Hanseatic cities and quaint harbor towns felt like stepping back in time, and exploring the beautiful natural landscapes by boat was pure magic. The pace was perfect, the scenery breathtaking, and every day brought a new adventure. It’s the kind of trip that stays with you long after you return.

One of our favorite vacations
Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique I (and reverse)
We had an absolutely awesome time. Accommodations, equipment, and staff were all great. We also had perfect weather and a wonderful group of co-travelers. Would do a vacation like this again in a heart beat.
Only thing that would make it even better, would be to have a masseuse on board!

Tuscany's Legendary Gravel Routes
Good food, spectacular hotels, and beautiful scenery. They're based near Pienza. Juliana and Marko from the tour operator, in addition to booking the hotels, provided first class bikes, good routes, excellent navigation, and attentive service.
