Bavaria Bike Tours
Gem of Germany
The Free State of Bavaria stretches from the gentle hills of the Bohemian Forest to the dramatic peaks of the Bavarian Alps, offering nature-loving cyclists a blend of culture, history, and breathtaking scenery.
On a Bavaria bike tour, you’ll pass crystal-clear lakes, lush forests, and charming small towns where half-timbered houses and cobblestone streets make for a fairytale atmosphere. The highlight for many travelers is the world-famous Neuschwanstein Castle, perched high above the valley and looking like it was pulled straight out of a storybook!

“What a great way to see Germany! The sights, sounds, smells... all the things you miss in a car or on a train. Have you heard a cuckoo bird in the wild? The navigation app worked great for the route - it didn't always lead you to your hotel, just FYI, you may be using your cell data plan for part of the navigation. Be sure to check for national holidays - Gasthauses may be closed. We rode in May - be ready for rain and sun. Luggage was always delivered to our next accomidation by 5pm- plan ahead for days when the ride ends early!” Less

“We had a blast on this trip — loved getting to see a bunch of small towns that we otherwise would never have visited. The biking was amazing (very very glad we sprung for e-bikes though!) and it was so great to arrive to our destination each day and have all our luggage already waiting for us! Would absolutely book another trip.” Less

“Best way to explore Germany. The ease of having the rooms booked, bikes ready to go and the route with additional things to see made this the best way to see Romantic Road. After biking the 20-30 miles to each destination it was wonderful to have our bags waiting for us at the hotel. This made the trip so much more enjoyable. The fact that breakfast was included made it a wonderful way to start the day. We were duped for our rides and never needed to stop for food. Great company and wonderful service. The only thing I would suggest would be the option to pre purchase a helmet and a poncho. Not an issue the bike shop at the first stop did the trick. We traveled from the states and didn’t have room for the helmet. So we bought and left it in Germany.” Less
