    What a wonderful experience seeing Northern Spain!

    · Northern Spain: Cantabrian & Asturian Coasts

    This may be our favorite bike trip yet! The routes were beautifully crafted for maximum scenic views, minimal traffic, and wonderful towns. The hotels were all exceptional and unique. I love that we had 2 days in 3 places, so it gave us a little more opportunity to experience those regions. The drivers for pick up and drop off were super friendly, communicative, and prompt. The weather was just a little cooler than we would have liked for our trip, but it absolutely did not hinder us from enjoying every moment.

    Perfect way to see Bilboa. We really enjoyed it! The guide was great and gave us tips where to go and eat afterwards. Even a little Basque lesson for certain words! Explaines a lot of the culture and history. It was very interesting!

    Nice quiet roads, very good hotels

    · Northern Spain: Cantabrian & Asturian Coasts

    Many of the roads were through farm country and there were a lot more cows than cars, which was lovely.
    The hotels were all very nice in all ways, and overall this was a very good cycle tour.
    3 times during the week we stayed in a hotel for 2 nights instead of moving every day, which was nice.
    I would recommend this tour to others. (this was my 8th one week cycle tour in Europe)

    Perfect Blend of Cycling, Cultural Experiences, Friends and Food!

    · Basque Country: Bilbao to San Sebastián via Olite

    From our tour of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao to our last dinner in San Sebastian we packed in a lot of cycling and great experiences! The hotels and Paradors we lovely, well located and comfortable. I'm a solo traveller from Canada and the group was mostly Germans but they spoke English as did the guides so I was always informed. The bikes were great. The cycling was spectacular. We had some gorgeous descents. The food was plentiful and delicious. Many great memories!

    A Barcelona Bike Tour Delight

    · Gaudi’s Barcelona E-Bike Tour

    What a perfect find on biketours.com for a day of e-biking thru Barcelona. Our wonderful local Catalan tour guide, Edna, took us on a wonderful tour thru the old district to the beaches to the guadi city cites. Along the way stopped at many places learning a bit of history. It was a great tour for us and we highly recommend this tour.

    Brilliant day out

    · Bilbao Central E-Bike Tour

    Roberto was a great guide. The best way to see a snapshot of the city. The E bikes were easy to use. A beautiful spot to visit.

  • Great Pyrenees and Costa Brava E-Bike Tour

    Perfect tour of Catalonia!

    · Great Pyrenees and Costa Brava E-Bike Tour

    From our welcome and thorough briefing in Girona, to the comfortable and capable bikes, the stunning views, memorable accommodations, delectable food and wine, history and wonder of the region, I highly recommend this trip! The tour winds all across Catalonia and offers many miles on trials and nearly car-free roads. The drivers in Catalonia were extremely courteous and always provided plenty of room when passing. We found the directions, information, and navigation app to be easy to use (make sure you bring a portable charger for your phone). The tour operators provide suggestions to customize your itinerary for each day dependent on distance and interest. The e-bikes are a great match for this enticing and challenging route! We traveled in April and found the weather to be quite lovely. Catalonia is windy so be sure to bring the appropriate gear. Yet another reason to love the e-bikes! We opted for the premium hotel and added on a few of the additional tours/meals offered through the tour operator. Happy with all of it!

  • Medieval Villages of Catalonia
    (5/5) Kathy K 2 months ago

    Beautiful Villages and Stunning Sea!

    · Medieval Villages of Catalonia

    I recently did the self-guided trip as a mom and son getaway with my 14-year old. We did this on e-bikes. Daniel was kind and thoughtful and checked in on us along the way via text. He was on time for bike delivery and super organized, setting us up for success. The hotels selected were great even though we booked last minute. Each of our rooms along the mediterranean had views of the Sea which was stunning and exceeded our expectations. My son managed the GPS and all of the navigating and we had an easy time of this. The route itself was wonderful! A great mix of medieval and coast and I wonder if the tour title should give more emphasis to the time spent along the coast, which was absolutely beautiful! I was sad to leave Llafranc and put the sea behind us, but this was quickly replaced with fascination at the beauty of the small villages. Overall, this was a wonderful adventure. The weather was superb and the towns were not crowded with tourists (late June). I do recommend the e-bikes if you have varying levels of experience and want to stray off the tour routes at all to bike uphill to other towns not on the tour route. We had more than enough time and energy to add things like this because of the benefit of the pedal-assist.

    Amazing experience

    · Camino de Santiago: From Leon to Santiago (Premium)

    Highly recommend this trip. The scenery and route are a nice mix of easier and challenging days, and doing the “self guided” option gave us some flexibility, but we were still confident in the route/directions. Our e-bikes were excellent. The hotels were also excellent - a mixture of boutique and traditional commercial lodging, but all clean and comfortable. Leon and Astorga were especially amazing. Loved it!
