My favorite bike trip
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
This year I did 4 European bike trips and this was my favorite. The scenery was gorgeous, the emerald pastureland, the craggy mountains some of them snow capped in august were amazing. We also loved all the bright flowers and the chalet style Swiss architecture that was everywhere. We were often serenaded by cow bells as we rode by. The roads were generally very low traffic. I’d do this tour again in a minute! There were significant hills to climb but the e-bikes we rented made the hills very doable for our group of active 67 to 82 year olds. We even conquered the approx. seven mile uphill with relative ease, no walking required. Since we are from florida we were worried about our ability to train for 4,000 feet of climbing but the e-bikes made it all doable. We didn’t take any of the possible short cuts (train or funicular) to eliminate hills as we didn’t want to miss any of the scenery. Instead of using the provided app for navigation we put the route in ride with gps so that we would have specific turn by turn direction to our hotel as well as the daily route. That worked really well for us. We also used the recommended Swiss mobility app and that was a very important tool as it shows biking and walking routes all over Switzerland. Of the many many bike tours I’ve done over the years this was my absolute favorite.

Great Way to Experience a Country and Culture
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
We had a great time on this tour! The hotels were top notch, with great food and amazing spas. The routing was right on point, we really liked the EuroTrek app and the routes in there. That app along with Apple Maps got us everywhere we needed to go. We were lucky and did not have to use any of the tools or pump included. Bikes are a huge part of Swiss Culture. Travel on the roads, or on public transportation, was seamless.
The funicular in Vevey on day 1 saved a lot of climbing. I would highly suggest taking it! Same with the train over the Brunig Pass. The cycling demands were very manageable. There was some walking up hills, but the last 3 days were almost all flat or downhill. If you stay in Spiez, after your ride, I suggest taking the Nielsen Funicular to the peak. From there, you see the valley you ride down from Gstaad to Spiez.
Luggage transfer was seamless. The first day, our bags showed up at 5:30 pm. The rest of our days, the bags were already in our room when we arrived at the hotels.
Bike Tours and EuroTrek were great to work with. We will definitely do another trip like this one day! If you are interested in the tour and have questions, I am happy to answer them. Dwade39 at gmail dot com

Amazing 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.

Great Trip!
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
Definitely recommend this trip. Scenery is stunning; hotels were great. Lakes provided a great way to cool off after each bike ride. Route is very easy to follow - very reliable signage for "Lakes Route #9" throughout the ride, so didn't have to rely on GPS much at all, which was nice - got to take in the views instead of constantly checking map to see if we were on track. I rode a normal bike, while my significant other rode a E-bike. Was perfect for both us based on our level of cycling. Lastly, hotels totally set up for e-bike charging + great breakfasts in the morning prior to each ride. Fun Times!

Amazing Trip!
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
This was truly and amazing trip. From the scenery to the hotels to the bikes. My wife and I just came back from this trip last week. It really was a special trip. we do a lot self guided bike trips, with other tours companies and this one did a fantastic job, the app worked perfectly. The hotels were beautiful, the included breakfast were delicious. Most of the tour was on quiet road, however there were some places the roads were busier than others. Switzerland is a very bike friendly country, cars are very patient with cyclists.

The best way to travel Switzerland!
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
This was our first time doing a bike vacation and it was the perfect way to see Switzerland - the countryside is stunning and we saw so many quaint Swiss villages that most visitors miss. We rented hybrid bikes (not the e-bikes) and while the route was harder than anticipated, we enjoyed the workout and would use hybrid bikes again. But I'm mentioning this to let others know that there are some serious climbs on this trip! One thing not emphasized on the website is that some of the hotels may have heated pools / spas, so bring a bathing suit and plan to enjoy some relaxation time at the hotels. Overall, I highly recommended this trip and we will be doing another biking trip with Bike Tours again!

Lovely
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
The trip was very well organized. The views were wonderful the whole time. We would do it again! We were able to modify our trip which we appreciated (stayed in Interlaken instead of Spiez to explore the Lauterbrunnen valley. We also did two rest days instead of one in this area).

Beautiful Ride
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
Hotels were great. Liked having the option to ride the whole route rather than skip the longer steeper climbs. Enjoyed the ferry ride. The navigation app worked great. A huge improvement over the older version. I love this route.

Amazing trip
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
We were a family of 8 and we had the best time! We loved the route that was set up, we thought everyday was the highlight, then the next day would provide more. Loved being on our own schedule. The hotels picked were perfect, usually right on the water with great views. We enjoyed 2 hotels with spa/baths. It was a very hot week in Switzerland and most hotels did not have AC, which isn’t preferable, but the next week looked to be chilly and rainy, so I’ll take our perfect weather! We probably ate half of our dinners at the hotels and they were very good. The e-bikes were the best, everyone could get the amount of exercise they wanted. Batteries easily lasted all day. GPS and app were great and provided all the necessary info. They were comfortable. The luggage transport was seamless, usually arriving just after we did. The family thought it was one of the best trips we have taken and we travel a lot. We are already looking to do another. Great adventure!

Like Riding through a postcard
Swiss Lakes by E-bike: Lake Geneva to Lake Lucerne
This was a wonderful tour! The GPS was easy to follow and much of the tour was on bike paths or rural roads. The locals were very respectful on the busier roads and we did not feel unsafe. We had an incident with one of the bikes (our fault not theirs) and they were very responsive and understanding and arranged for a replacement bike immediately. The hotels were great. We were initially disappointed to not be staying right in Gruyere but the included spa at our hotel made the extra pedaling worth it. The tour company was also very flexible with our itinerary as we only spent one night in Spiez and then added 2 nights in Interlaken (something I highly recommend doing). The scenery in Switzerland is unmatched and many days we road along the countryside listening to the cow bells in the hills. We started in the French speaking area and ended in the German. The last 2 days past many clear blue lakes but each one was a different shade of tourquoise! The last day rode us right past the starting point for Pilatus and the world's steepest cogwheel railway. Beautiful views and easy to get a ticket day of.

Very fun and efficient.
Welcome to Tallinn Bike Tour
Amazing tour. Very efficient. The reach bike is given on a short trip is just unbeatable. The tour covered all of the monuments we expected to see and more. Enough time to observe, read and talk about the history of each monument. Joe our guide was amazing !! I recommended him highly.

An informative ride on a windy day
360° Rotterdam Bike Tour
Tom, our guide, was cheerful and competent from the start. We had a very windy day, which necessitated some route changes and we were unable to ride over the Erasmus Bridge because of safety concerns. (He was right about that!) It would have been nice to ride! more, but under the circumstances I don't think anything could have been better. Also, the communication with Bozena in the office as we were organizing our tour was excellent. She was kind and patient, and competent. A great value
