★★★★★ Jenny H. 2 months agoCycling at Its Best!
· Romantic Road from Würzburg to Donauwörth
We thoroughly enjoyed the cycling between Würzburg and Donauwörth. Germany has such great cycling infrastructure. The roads we travelled were mostly car-free. Often we cycled through agricultural land with good pavement, brick, or crushed stone. Each day brought us to a new medieval town to explore. The accommodations were nice and convenient to town centers making it easy to drop off the bikes at the hotels and tour the towns on foot. All hotels were bike friendly and had places to store the bikes when we were not using them. The scenery was lovely. We highly recommend this trip!
For first-time users, the Komoot App was challenging to use. It is not personalized and the routes do not take you to your hotel each day. You have to navigate from the general route map to your hotel yourself, which can be challenging.

· Danube Bike Path 8 Nights (Upscale Lodging)
Overall good experience. Had some hiccup pre-departure as the operator made a mistake on our one way transfer from Vienna to Passau and had to find our own transport last min, which we managed. Bikes were good quality and map app was easy to follow with a little help with Google map to get to the hotel sometime. The luggage forwarding was seamless. Some hotels are better than the others. We had a reasonable expectation of the upscale four stars so didn’t anticipate any luxury. They are good clean hotels that covers the basics and most of them are in good location except one due to book-out of the normal one they use.
We feel certain things can be improved but overall is a lovely experience even two days were raining.Overall we feel it was

· · Danube Discovery: Bike and Boat through Enchanting Capitals
We really enjoyed the additional excursions we booked. They were excellent. We are happy we rented e bikes since some of the cycling was longer than we normally do, the assist was a plus! The cycling on our 2nd day proved to be a challenge since we and others got lost several times making us late and miss the tour we had booked for Bratislava.
We found out that if one gets hurt or that their bike breaks down that there isn't any rescue service which would be necessary. All in all the staff was great, the food very good and our room service kept our room nice and clean.. -
★★★★★ Nsncy OLeary 2 months agoBike/Sail adventure
· · Denmark and Sweden by Sail and Bike
For the cabins-- NEED to include ladder or stool for the cabins (4 of them) that have one bed that is almost 120 cm high we had to move our cabin to cabin #2 which was much smaller. Without the stool or ladder I couldn't get in and out of bed safely

★★★★★ Katarina P. 2 months agoA fun and educational ride around Bucharest with Dan (the best guide)
· Highlights of Bucharest Bike Tour
Firstly, Dan is an excellent guide! He is very knowledgeable, funny, knows a lot of fun facts, and also very friendly, welcoming and approachable.
The tour was great fun, but also a bit unusual compared to other bike tours I’ve done—since Bucharest doesn’t have many dedicated bike lanes and most main attractions are in the city center or Old Town, we spent a large part of the tour cycling on sidewalks. It was an interesting experience, but I would love if in the future the tour includes more rides through parks or areas with more space for cycling.The tour was interactive, and we learned a lot. On top of that, Dan shared a large number of recommendations related to Bucharest, Romania, Romanian movies, books, culture and more—I really appreciate that effort, and it’s clear that Dan truly loves his job and does it perfectly.
I recommend this tour to everyone. Even though it’s a bit unusual because most of the riding is in the city center and Old Town, that’s also part of its charm. We all thoroughly enjoyed the tour, and it’s a fantastic way to get to know Bucharest.

★★★★★ Bill O 2 months agoVery 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.

· Cycling Spain's Ebro River
We enjoyed our trip to Spain and were glad that we opted for e-bikes as our 70 year old legs would have had a hard time with the hills during the first few biking days. The bike staff were great and very attentive to our needs, they even went out of their way to return a lost iPad. We especially enjoyed Haro and LaGuardia. Both cities were what we were hoping to find in Spain.

★★★★★ Randall Nikolai 2 months agoNice Trip
· Vienna to Budapest (Classic)
The lodging was very nice. Provided Meals were good to very good. The provided bike was very good but developed shifting issues and tire rubbing issues as the trip went on. Since some group members got ebike upgrades, the operator worked on mine as he delivered the new bikes.
This trip needs to run in the opposite direction. The prevailing wind is just too strong at times. I was warned of that before the trip but took a chance on it. We really struggled at times. That also took away from the time we had for sightseeing. We wanted to explore sights along the way but didn't have the time as we tried to get to the next town at a reasonable time. If we had been going the opposite direction life would have been lots better. Also, we all paid for dinners, but two of us were told our dinners had not been paid for and we would have to pay for them. After much arguing we got our dinners but it was very awkward and uncomfortable. -

· Bicycle Paths of the Dolomites (based in one hotel)
Loved the hotel and the area. The hotel, the food, the spa - was a highlight. The bike tour group ( manages the bikes and the routes, the shuttles ) is separate from the hotel. The hotel helps with info and also does different guided bike tours ( their bike tours looked more rugged and guided hikes. We took a day off from the planned rides and did a hike - and a bus ride - it was so worth it. Heads up - Make sure you read all the forms and plans from the Biking company. There are the 5 days of rides planned. Two days you are on your own - out and back. One day, the bike company will shuttle you to the start ( the highest point). The other days, they could pick you up at the end of the ride -or you could train in. They decide which day is which and it could change. This was not my first organized bike vacation. I loved being at one hotel, their dinner plan. We got to know the area, the buses, trains to have options. E bikes also made this much easier.

★★★★★ Katy Mason 2 months agoLove those Dolomites!
· Dolomites to Trieste via Lake Bled at the Foot of the Julian Alps
We had a wonderful experience on this trip. The guide was easy to work with and very helpful. There was one route that was closed and not easy to navigate. I would say that is our only criticism - the GPS should have been updated. It made for a long day. Overall, it was just an incredible route.

This was a magnificent flavor adventure where we sampled incredible, authentic delicacies like codfish cake and pasteis de nata. Our guide made sure we experienced the best of the city's food scene in Alfama and Mouraria.

★★★★★ Hilton 2 months agoFirst and best e-bike tour!!
· Medieval Villages of Catalonia
Fabulous way to take in the sights, sounds and smells of this beautiful area at our own pace on the self-guided tour. The information we were provided with prior to setting out - plus the GPS navigation tool - made us feel very comfortable and in control of our time each day. Daniel, our host provided outstanding service - starting with an excellent briefing in Girona at the beginning of the tour - and everything he promised was delivered on or exceeded. The distances each day on the e-bikes were very achievable for anyone with a moderate level of fitness. The luggage transfers were seamless. The accommodation was excellent each night! Not five star - but beautiful locations and very comfortable. Overall, I highly recommend the tour.

· UNESCO Sites of Albania
Felt like we were able to see many different parts of the country and you can’t beat traveling by bike. The tour companies were great to work with as we had some travel challenges to work around. Inland the roads were scenic and quiet for riding, while the coast was stunning.
