    Scenic, tasty, and totally unique!

    Dubrovnik Peljesac Bike Tour with Wine & Oyster Tasting

    This tour was the highlight of our trip - cycling through beautiful Pelješac, tasting fresh oysters right on the water, and sipping local wines with a view. Great balance of activity and relaxation. Highly recommend for foodies and nature lovers alike!

    This tour was absolutely as dreamy as described!

    Wine & Bike in Hungary’s Balaton Uplands

    Our family of four (age 68, 55, 26 and 24) from Nacogdoches, Texas took this tour and will remember it dreamily for the rest of our lives. It was our "last hurrah" before 20-something kids got married and started having kids. Our personable tour directors picked us up in Budapest and took us off to our starting point in Veszprem--a gorgeous medieval town with colorful skyline. Every day we had a manageable ride--even for 68 year old dad--giving us wonderful lunch stop suggestions, and winery options. Take the guides' suggestions--they are awesome places! We were definitely off the beaten path, with villages along cobblestone Roman roads and dedicated bike paths most of the way. Hotels were small but elegant and the breakfasts and dinners very nice with quality local wines included. We were given bikes in good condition and a well-programmed GPS that allowed our son to guide us along the way through the quiet countryside, many times with lake views of Balaton. The trip put this beautiful country on the map for us, along with empathy for its history and people and all the trials they have survived. We chose this tour because it was one of the more affordable ones, but it left us with a lifetime of rich experience.

    Just right

    National Parks of Dalmatia by Bike/E-bike and Boat

    In the past we have done some European bike trips on our own, this was our first experience with a guided group tour. We were concerned about the level of difficultly (was it a 2? or perhaps a 3 or 4?). We are older (78 and 87), not veteran bikers but fairly active. We chose to rent e-bikes which was perfect for us....no problem at all going up hills, staying with the others and maneuvering through the occasional traffic as we left a town.
    Thanks to the expertise of the excellent guides we all stayed safe, blended together well in spite of our different levels of cycling abilities, various nationalities and ages.
    We had a wonderful trip, more "social" than our personal trips, but lively, informative, stimulating and enriching in all ways.
    With e-bikes it was definitely a level 2, though for those on regular bikes I imagine it would be a level 3 or 3+.
    It was luxurious to be on such a high quality boat, very comfortable, good food and an excellent staff.

Accomodation was all very good, bikes in fantastic condition and all the required information was presented in an easy to understand and work way - highly recommend Bike Tours and will definitely be booking another bike tour

    Cycling around Bruges

    Bruges City Bike Tour

    Joost was our tour guide. He's local and speaks English very well. Joost used stories to tell us about the history of Bruges. The ride is on cobblestone, but the bicycle seats are very comfortable so I did not notice any discomfort. We traveled about 7 or 8 km. It was an easy ride with many stops. We never felt rushed and was free to ask any questions. We had time to take photos at each stop. A very nice tour.

    Fantasic experince!!!

    Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)

    We enjoyed our trip from Passau to Austria. The local tour operator, Pedalo, did a great job interfacing with the hotels, moving our luggage and taking care of any issues with our bikes. Gave us everything we needed to succeed!

    A few notes:
    a) Be aware that the first two days are among the longer legs of the trip, so be prepared to leave early those days
    b) The route goes on both sides of the Danube pretty much continuously, with a few diversions onto local roads from separated bike paths. You do not have to follow the recommended route if you want to check out something on the other side or save a few Euros from the bike ferries, but the planned route is a good one to follow. If you just follow the R1 / Danauweg signs toward the right towns you will be fine.
    c) The hotels vary widely in quality and level of staffing. Check them out yourself during the booking process.

    We used regular bikes - if you choose e-bikes be sure you understand the range capabilities and where you can charge your bikes in the middle of the day if needed.

    Lovely tour

    Portugal's Atlantic Coast

    This tour was lovely. The hotels were beautiful. The local company is very responsive, and sent someone right away to adjust brakes and derailleurs on one of our rented bikes. The route is quite hilly. For those not in peak cycling form, I recommend an electric bike. I also recommend taking an extra day in Sintra to see all of the sights.

    Alpine pastures

    Innsbruck to Salzburg: Through the Alps Along River Cycle Trails

    Although we went through all climate zones during our ride we find this vacation awesome. Selection of hotels and planning of bike routes was very good. Riding 40 to 65 km each day with e-bikes took 2-3 hours, therefore we had enough time to walk alpine pastures taken up by cable cars in Zell am See or Lofer. You may believe me that alpine meadows settled only by Milka cows is something that gives the best break from noisy and busy life.

    How to make pilgrimage easier?

    Camino de Santiago: From Porto to Santiago de Compostela

    I made with my son the self-guided tour from Porto to Santiago de Compostela in mid-September. We expected hot days, but we often needed to wear jackets due to ocean breeze. In comparison to Insbruck-Salzburg tour we found this one more difficult, especially in parts with crowds of pilgrims on narrow and richly rooted forest paths or cobble stone streets. In these circumstances taking distance of 60 km could be challenging. Generally, we are happy from our choice. Views on ocean with rocky coast was wonderful, and collecting stamps in Camino passports joined us spiritually with pilgrims, although riding e-bikes we could be treated as cheaters. We express also gratitude to Daniel who greeted us in Porto and explained everything in all details.
