    Best Trip Ever!

    This was a trip of lifetime! The Trip Leader was very kind, caring and conscientious. His colleague also provided outstanding support and assistance throughout the trip. The riding was beautiful, safe and an excellent pace. The bikes, hotels, food and historical and cultural tours/visits were all beyond excellent!

    Fantastic bike tour through the Swedish countryside

    Very knowledgeable and experienced tour guide. However it would have been more enjoyable to have had the opportunity to spend more time exploring two of the villages. Maybe a two night stay in both Trosa and Mariefred. The tour of Gripsholm Castle was hurried and disappointed that two of the churches we stopped at during our ride weren’t open! Overall a wonderful time! Dieter and Michele were both very accommodating and nice.

    Sweden

    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!!

    Wonderful Trip

    This tour through central Sweden was unbelievably perfect. This is an exceptional bike tour company. E-bikes, scenic route, hotels, and support were all first class. Tour guides were very knowledgeable and accommodating. Support from Bikes Tours in the US was great from start to finish. Highly recommend!

    Beautiful scenery, quiet roads, a well-organized tour.

    Our custom group tour of 20 was guided with most meals included and luggage transfer. Our bicycle tour guide, who biked with us each day, and his assistant were experienced, competent leaders, and paid close attention to every detail. Our bicycle guide had a good knowledge of Sweden's history and culture and provided us with information along the route. The luggage van driver prepared 3 gourmet picnic lunches, some of the best ever on a bicycle tour. Our 2 guides went above and beyond keeping our group well-informed of each day's activities and on schedule. We enjoyed having both guides join us for dinner. We were met by a local tour leader for 2 castle tours and an excellent harbor tour of Stockholm was organized at the end of the bicycle tour. The guest houses in the countryside were lovely 4* accommodations. The food was excellent and well presented. The routes were safe on secondary roads and paved bicycle paths for the most part, with some roads gravel and packed dirt. If I could have changed anything, it would be less gravel roads. Most of our group did not object. Seven riders in our group rode hybrid bicycles, others requested an electric assistant bicycle. The terrain was gently rolling with a few surprise short hills. Either way, it's a very pleasant ride with picturesque scenery. There were no complaints from our group on this tour.
