Bike Tours

“I did the last tour of 2025, in October. I went with my sister (we are in our 50s) and my daughter (in her 30s) and we used ebikes. The autumn colours along the way were magnificent. We did get a lot of rain on the first day, and a small amount on the second but otherwise we got lucky with the weather. I wanted to do this type of tour in which you are not riding with other people because I prefer to take my time and not have to worry about holding other people up. There was another group of women we saw sometimes along the way, and got chatting to them sometimes, mostly at breakfast but once along the way. That was nice, and my daughter exchanged socials so she may have made friends.
The path from Passau to Vienna is fantastic, and I reckon I could do that again, maybe on my own and maybe even on a regular bike. After Vienna it's a bit rougher, particularly in Slovakia. We were worried about the bikes over one particularly bumpy patch, but we figured they wouldn't be sending the bikes there if they didn't think they were up to the task. And they were, so all was well.
The hotels we stayed at were very good, for the most part. We chose category A due to the higher number of spa hotels. They didn't all have a spa, and they didn't all have lifts either, so bear that in mind when packing. Yes, they transport your bags (chef's kiss on that) but you have to get them to your room. Some of the rooms in Austria were more suited to couples than to mother and daughter due to having bathrooms with glass doors, but we just had to make sure we were in a spot out of eyeline when the other was using the facilities.
I absolutely loved this trip and sometimes get a bit sad that it's over.” Less

“Eric was the BEST tour guide! We enjoyed it very much! It was cold and he had extra gloves and gators to wear! He’s super fun and engaging and went above and beyond to give us the full OTH tour! Loved that he was thoughtful with the amenities he brings to fully make the experience!! Definitely would do it again!” Less

“We had a great time seeing Portugal. The sights, people, food and route were all wonderful. The coastal towns had jaw dropping scenery. Obidos and Sintra were picture postcard perfect. An extra day in Sintra to see the castles is a must. We rode premium road bikes through challenging climbs. Only the uphill Sintra cobbles required walking the bike. Well organized tour” Less

“If you’re looking for an engaging, comprehensive One Tree Hill tour—this is for YOU! We booked with Eric on an impromptu trip to Wilmington fairly last minute and it far exceeded expectations. First, Eric was on time and ready to roll when we pulled up—we actually didn’t book properly (didn’t include our 6 year old) so he had to drive across town to get a replacement bike so our 6 year old could ride too…he didn’t even pause, just offered a solution and made it happen! Eric was engaged, energetic, extremely personable the entire time, and knew all the ins and outs of the show, city, and notable spots to get photos. Eric was also intentional with some stops along the way for lunch and recommended some solid options for us ahead of time, and we even stopped downtown and had a drink before finishing our tour which we appreciated. We’re already looking forward to doing another tour the next time we’re back in town. Thanks, Eric!” Less
