★★★★★ Sandra Daly July 31, 2024Amazing trip!
· Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
This was the perfect way to see Switzerland. The countryside is scenic , the lakes and rivers are pristine and the cities are beautiful. We added an additional “rest day” in Spiez as there is so much we wanted to do in the area and I’m so glad we did. It allowed us to go paragliding, do some great hikes and get to see more of this amazing area.

★★★★★ JAMES LANGLAND 12 months agoGeneva to Lyon
· Along the Rhône River from Geneva to Lyon
After exiting Switzerland we were pleased to find the vast majority of this ride in France was on dedicated bike trails some newly paved along the Rhone. The flexibility of Bruno in meeting with us the night before starting was especially appreciated. Wetted our appetite to bike further down the Rhone in the future

★★★★★ Kramp Jon 12 months agoThe best boat of any bike and boat tour I have bookd via biketours.com
· · Northern German Odyssey: Bike, Barge and Cruise
Mainly a tour of the countryside of northeastern Germany. The boat was built about 100 years ago. It is evident that the boat has been totally remodeled. The cabins are very large with lots of open space. The bathroom was about the same size as on other boats. The food was well above average for bike tours I have taken in the past. The bikes used appeared to be new for the current season but were a bit on the heavy side. The bike route part of the trip contained more sections with pebble or uneven stone pavement surfaces than expected.

· Marseille Highlights Bike Tour
We absolutely loved this bike ride around Marseille. Many of the places we learnt about on the tour we returned to to explore on foot. Cindy, our host, was awesome. Full of information with a very sense of humour. We really appreciated her wisdom and sense of fun.

Perfect way to experience the Alps and the Tyrol Region!
· Innsbruck to Lake Garda Across the Southern Slopes of the Alps
Fantastic experience. Great scenery with great back paths throughout the trip. Every day was unique enough that you felt it was a new experience. All our hotels were fine. A little noisy in IMST from road traffic. A great view from our Hotel room in St. Valentin. Great location in Riva del Garda. Each breakfast provided by the hotels were outstanding (sliced meat, cheese, eggs, etc.). Assistance from Stefano when required was readily available. We had not issues with bikes (better than mine).

★★★★★ Kevin Conroy 12 months agoFun, fun trip
· Portugal's Atlantic Coast
The trip was very well organized. The gps routes were spot on. Lots of turns in a few areas but that’s a small price to pay to stay off main roads.
Paul (our local tour representative) was excellent. His pickup, drop off and bike setup and sizing were efficient and timely. His instructions, recommendations and advice were indispensable. And a fun guy!
So a great ride, seeing small towns and countryside at a relaxing pace. The hotels were all wonderful with very good breakfasts. Our only regret was not having opted for an extra night in Óbidos and Sintra. But we didn’t know that until we were already in the towns.- What was the date of your tour?

Fascinating Tour in Northern Germany
· · Northern German Odyssey: Bike, Barge and Cruise
This was a fascinating overview of eastern Germany, with the addition of a couple days in Poland, where we learned so much about the GDR era. The Merlijn is a beautiful ship, and the crew catered to all of our needs. The guide was an upbeat, knowledgeable Dutch woman who kept us laughing. The bicycles were perfect for the job. And the meals were heavenly!

★★★★★ Jim Gross 12 months agoRadreise Freude/ Great Tour Company
· Danube Bike Path 8 Nights (Upscale Lodging)
This was our (3) time riding the “Passau to Vienna “ tour. Such a beautiful experience.
I caught an illness on our flight from the states. Ended up being transported by ambulance to the hospital. Was unable to ride the next day.
Tour operator arranged to have us and our bikes transported by a van to the next hotel.
They were extremely helpful.- What was the date of your tour?

· · Amsterdam – Bruges by Bike and Boat – Magnifique II (and reverse)
Celebrating my 70th birthday on Magnifique II was a special surprise! Everything on board was above expectations. Clean, comfortable, invigorating. Meals were first class!
I would recommend bringing eco friendly containers for lunch items as you will prepare your own lunch to take with you on the ride.Bike guides were informative and knowledgeable about sites and enhanced the experience.
Definitely recommend!

★★★★★ Donna Ehlers 12 months agoFantastic journey!
· Lake Constance Bicycle Path
We did a self guided tour. We had so much fun in the villages with great food and accommodations, most were in the center of the towns. Great breakfasts and service in general. Felt fantastic to ride on the safe bike trails about 3/4 hours daily. We took time off to swim in the lake and get ice cream and relax in the many parks. Great history and a way to immerse more authentically in the vulture. I give this type of holiday my highest recommendation.

★★★★★ Delia Scoville 12 months agoPerfect way to experience Germany
· Munich & the Bavarian Lakes
We had a blast on this trip — loved getting to see a bunch of small towns that we otherwise would never have visited. The biking was amazing (very very glad we sprung for e-bikes though!) and it was so great to arrive to our destination each day and have all our luggage already waiting for us! Would absolutely book another trip.

· Stockholm and Sörmland
Dieter and McKaela were fantastic. They ensured a flawless week. From bag service to roadside picnics to history lessons, they absolutely knocked it out of the park.
My only suggestion is we had fish and small potatoes 4 mights in a row. It was disappointing not being able to select our entree at dinner. Even 2-3 choices would've been acceptable and we could've provided this in advance.
We cannot say enough good things about the trip...absolutely fantastic!!- What was the date of your tour?
