★★★★★ Diana S. 2 weeks agoGreat way to see Portugal
· Portugal's Atlantic Coast
We loved the bike ride and the bikes excellent. After being hesitant about the GPS on the phone we found them amazing and we're taken through wonderful roads and interesting towns and off busy areas.we dud the hybrid choice the first Dat thinking we would see mire villages but found it much harder with no advantage. The accommodation was excellent everywhere and the the communication with bike.com and a local tour operator was amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

★★★★★ Darcy B 2 weeks agoThe perfect way to enjoy Crete!
· Aegean Discovery: Cycling through Eastern Crete
The route was very scenic as we cycled along parts of the north and south coastline. The hills challenged us as we cycled up but then we were rewarded with fabulous long glides downhill.
The hotels were well situated near beaches and town centres.
The TO staff were available when we had some questions regarding the route and the Ride with GPS- What was the date of your tour?

★★★★★ Mary O 1 week agoGreat trip through Southern Albania
· UNESCO Sites of Albania
I thoroughly enjoyed the UNESCO Sites of Albania cycling tour. Our guide Andrea was awesome! He was very eager to share his knowledge of Albania, its culture and history. He was also very friendly, helpful and supportive of tour participants. The hotels and restaurants were all good, food was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the two nights that we spent at local guest houses up in the mountains: family run and very friendly, with amazing local fresh food. The bicycles they provided were in good condition. The sag van driver and mechanic Rimi was great. He promptly and skillfully addressed any mechanical issues with the bicycles and was very supportive of any riders who needed to ride some sections in the van.
My only criticism of the tour is that communication prior to the trip was minimal. Also, though not my personal experience, some of the other participants had been given misleading information about the difficulty of the trip from TO's administrative staff prior to the trip.
Overall, I would highly recommend this trip!- Countries included in this tour?

The perfect team-building day!
· Dubrovnik Peljesac Bike Tour with Wine & Oyster Tasting
Our group had an amazing time on the Dubrovnik Pelješac Bike Tour - great energy, beautiful scenery, and just the right mix of activity and chill. The oyster and wine tasting was a unique touch that brought everyone together. Fun, relaxed, and unforgettable, and yes, we’re still talking about it back at the office!

★★★★★ Ivan 1 week agoAnother bike tour on my bucket list ticked off
· Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
This ride is a terrific way to see the Peloponnese. I found the section from Sparta to Gytheio the most interesting, with trails through olive and citrus groves. The Byzantine site of Mystras is well worth spending time. With a warning that to visit takes a while and the road to it is very steep particularly if you’re visiting the Frankish castle above the monastery buildings. Being in my 70’s I was grateful that I ordered an e-bike, but 22 kms from Gytheio I ran out of battery and had to pedal the distance and doing this with 26 kilo bike wasn’t easy. Organisers may consider an e-bike with a larger battery power. The battery lasted just long enough to complete the beach tour from Gytheio the following day. There were a variety of trails and not too much peddling on main roads. The hotels were very good and friendly service.

Wonderful adventure. Strongly consider e-bike option due to strong headwinds switching between north and south. This is a new trip and we were on the maiden voyage, so the guides were becoming familiar with the routes available. Great food and ambiance.

· · Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique IV (and reverse)
we thoroughly enjoyed this trip, from the greeting on the first day to the tearful goodbyes on the last. We can’t say enough about the crew on the Magnifique IV, they were so busy yet did a great job!! Our tour guides for the bikes were a blast, made the kilometers melt away. We would do again in a heartbeat!!

★★★★★ Axel Sellgren 1 week ago
A true Discovery og Portugals Atlantic coast.
· Portugal's Atlantic Coast
We were a small Group of 4, renting 2 regular bikes and 2 e-bikes. The bikes vere new and very well kept. The ladies found the e-bikes very comfortable, they were easy to handle and lightweight with enough battery to help extra in all uphills.
The Hotels on the trip were comfortable 4 stars and all except one, a very special one, The Letterman, had elevators to ease taking our luggage to Rooms. We enjoyed the stay at The Letterman anyway, never been to a hotel with that amount of books everwhere.
Our tour was selfguided and the route for every day was easy to find with the app « Ride with GPS» and GPX files to choose from. We liked the simple and effecient mounting of our phones at our steeringbars.
We can understand there was no offer going this Trip from south to north, as prevailing winds from the Atlantic were North/northwest and ofte gave an extra push from behind.
The app «Trip plans» was a new and very good guide and help for the whole Trip. We have been going on such bicycle trips for 20 years in Europe and never had somerhing like that, We love it! Thank you, and We recommend this Trip.- What was the date of your tour?

· · Provence by Bike and Boat
This slow way of travelling is perfect for savouring Provence on all levels…
Captain Willy and crew were extremely friendly, attentive and helpful. Our bike tour guide Michela was very safety conscious as well as informative and inclusive, all done with her Italian humour! The schedule was packed but never rushed. It helped that our group was cohesive and respectful of each other…and punctual! The food was excellent and our bow berth beyond expectations.

★★★★★ Dieter D. 7 days agoUnique experience to discover Siem Reap!
· Siem Reap Countryside Bike Tour with Lunch
Sing was an excellent guide, we visited a local market, rice fields, wate reservoir lake and more. It was a very beautiful bike tour, I can recommend! Keep in mind that it's very hot, especially when riding a bike, so be sure to bring enough water! Tour is suitable for adults/kids, even for those that don't often bike like me, yet an okay physical health condition is recommended to keep up with the pace!

A trip we will never forget!
· Danube Family Tour 7 Nights
We recently returned from this tour and can say on behalf of our entire family that we were completely WOWed by the experience. Austria is really special and we were so happy to be able to explore it by bike. I don't think we would have enjoyed it in the same way if we had simply rented a car and toured around. We did find that the average mileage each day was a bit longer than we had anticipated. With a 7- and 9- year old, it really put them t the test but they were proud of themselves each evening when we reached our destination. We will absolutely recommend this to others!

★★★★★ Glen E. 11 months agoa nice way to see authentic Czechia
· Prague to Vienna via Cesky Krumlov
I enjoyed it! I got what I view as an authentic look at the Czech landscape with a Czech guide. Jitka took us to obscure places that I would have never found on my own, and even with a GPS, I wouldn't have known the significance of some places without her there to describe them. Henry was great as a driver and rest stop provider, etc, and went above-and-beyond the call of duty, even finding obscure screws when my bike broke down in a small town of 800 people. (Note, I was riding my own bike; from what I saw with the other people, they had no problems with the rental bikes.)
We had a group of 6 people + ride leader + driver. Everyone was easy to get along with.
The one thing that surprised me about the trip was that we all rode together; there was no breaking up into different groups based on riding speeds (as I have experienced on other bicycle tours I have done). There were times when I would have liked to go a little faster. Occasionally, I did get ahead of the group and would wait in the next town or when we were coming to a turn. I would just say, this is a trip to see the Czech countryside, not to race and finish the riding day fast. But overall, it wasn't a big problem and I enjoyed the tour.
The tour was about 35-40 miles per day and was fairly hilly. It wasn't monstrously hilly, but every day except one had a few significant climbs. Cyclists either need to be accustomed to hill-climbing, or else rent an e-bike. Our group was split half-and-half between normal bikes and e-bikes. The e-bike people sometimes tried to make less use of the "e" part, but they had the security of knowing they could turn up the dial and go up any hill easily if they wanted to.
One comfort I was missing from the USA was air conditioning in the hotels. Most days weren't that hot (avg highs were low 20s Celsius, though a couple days got into the high 20s, maybe even 30); but even so, in the evenings it can be stuffy and a bit humid in a hotel room. 1 or 2 hotels had AC, 1 or 2 had a room fan, and the other 4 or so were, just open a window. I don't fault the bike tour for a lack of hotel AC, I think most hotels in Czechia are that way.

★★★★★ B. Powell 11 months agoQuintessential Provence!
· Cycling Paradise of Provence - to and from Avignon
A great sampling of quintessential Provence villages and sights... hilltop villages, wild poppies, fields of lavender. We thoroughly enjoyed all the scenery and activities along the way.
The first day of riding between Avignon and CdP was congested with car traffic (as to be expected close to a bigger city/area), but the other days were primarily smaller roadways and paths and very enjoyable and scenic. We did the add-on day to Arles and were really glad that we included that city in our tour. It felt complete to conclude the trip in Arles. A few of the gps routes lead us into the city center at end of day (instead of directly to hotel), but it was easy to navigate to hotels, and the gps tracks were otherwise very helpful to follow.
We opted for the self-guided tour but felt very supported by the local tour operator who was very responsive to any inquiries we had via WhatsApp.
We have many good memories of this trip!

★★★★★ Euro24 11 months agoWow, let's keep pedalling
· · Danube Delights: Cycling and Cruising in the Footsteps of Royalty
Great trip. These people understand good service...by everyone, in all areas, and it's pitched at just the right level. Combine that with great food at every sitting, with plenty of choice, and that fuels you for a ride that is one that everyone should do at some point. The river and its many villages is beautiful and the cycleways are in perfect condition. Our group ranged from 'haven't ridden in 30 years' (an e-bikes) to 'regular road cyclist' (on regular touring bikes) and the ride was enjoyed by all...we'll be back for more. Highly recommended.
