Really beautiful scenery and a great bike to take me down the paths
Danube Cycle Path Passau – Budapest
I really enjoyed the trip. The scenery was gorgeous. The navigation app worked well, and pointed out the details we needed to cross the road when needed, and circle around to cross bridges. Our luggage transfers were seamless. I was happy with my pedal assist ebike, which worked without a hitch and made the riding just the right level of athletic challenge (but not too much). We got a great overview of the ride from Vienna to Budapest from a meeting with the tour operator, so we knew what to expect, and weren't confused on our rail and boat transfers towards the end.
I liked staying in the smaller towns, where I could see how people live, and experience local hospitality.

Tales From the Danube Cycle Path
Danube Cycle Path Passau – Budapest
This was the trip of our dreams and was so great, I had to write a book about it!
We had amazing sights along flat paths, delicious wine in wine country and met interesting people. Navigating from the app was a bit challenging and there may have been a corn field we found ourselves in in Hungary where the paths weren't as easy to follow. However, it all added to the adventure. BikeTours was easy to work with and I highly recommend them.- What was the date of your tour?

Trip of a lifetime
Danube Capitals Bike & Boat Tour
We had been anticipating this trip for two years and it lived up to all our expectations and more. Riding bikes in 6 different countries over 14 days was amazing! The bikes were great. The boat was perfect. The staff was nothing but helpful and professional. We are already planning a follow-up tour. The folks at biketours.com did a great job with all the details!

Better than I had hoped
Danube Capitals Bike & Boat Tour
Everything about the ship was five star. The food was shockingly good. I had been on other bike tour companies with the food was very good for almost twice the price. The staff were all wonderful especially our waiter Samir. The boat was very comfortable and exceedingly well-maintained. We booked through Biketours.com who did an excellent job. The tours can be booked directly with rad and risen an Austrian company but it was the same price. It was an excellent value and I’m already daydreaming about a river cruise with bike in barge in the future.

Wonderful bike and boat experience
Danube Capitals Bike & Boat Tour
The Swiss Crown was a great way to experience riding and touring Austria, Hungary, Serbia and the rest of places we had the pleasure to see. It was disappointing that we were not able to sail to the Iron Gates because of the weather.
The self guided tours was good and relatively easy to follow despite our tour guide. We did not feel he did not do a good job at all He did not speak English well and a lot of what he tried to say got lost in translation and he was not very patient with our questions and concerns. We so enjoyed the boat -- everything about it was just perfect. The food was excellent and our staff were well trained and pleasant.

Danube Experience
Danube Capitals Bike & Boat Tour
This trip was great! The boat was very nice and comfortable, bikes were sturdy and visits with local guides outstanding. The paper route was not great but the app seemed to be more accurate. The daily briefings could have been more detailed.

Awesome experience!
Danube Capitals Bike & Boat Tour
It's so nice to be pampered and set up for success on an adventure that includes zero daily packing/unpacking and great routes on a bike. The meals were way above expectations and the e-bikes were perfect.
It would be nice if the information about fees for ferries, bus, etc. with the required currencies could be included accurately in the pre-trip materials or the navigation app.

Extensive and great experience!
Danube Capitals Bike & Boat Tour
We enjoyed every minute on and off the boat! Great covering of sites on the Danube! The meals was excellent, our compliments to the chef! The staff on board was very friendly and efficient, especially in the rooms and in the dining room! The Swiss Crown totally fulfilled our needs except for the insufficient wifi!
The explanation of routes could improve, as well as the provided app, that kept disappearing. The maps in the book was not well displayed, which made it difficult to follow while cycling along. I suggest a bigger sized booklet or a daily map!- What was the date of your tour?

Father and son special time together
Vienna to Budapest (Classic)
My 34 year old son and I (65) did this 6 day bike trip together. Created many special memories for us. Everything was so well organized. Hotels were very good. Many hotels had nice saunas or steam rooms or Thermal baths near by. It was nice to get to know some of the other bike riders even though this was not a group tour.

Beautiful & Historically Rich
Vienna to Budapest (Classic)
Our self guided cycle trip from Vienna to Budapest was extraordinary. The navigation guide worked really well for the daily cycles and the pacing of our days was great, other than we would have opted to stay in some of the cities like Gyor and Budapest for an extra day to do some history tours. Great hotels, planning and support otherwise.

Fabulous trip, great for a group
Vienna to Budapest (Classic)
What a great way to see so many little towns that likely people would not visit unless they were doing this trip. We loved very little town for a different reason and in its own way! We had some rough weather one day but we sorted that out. We had a group of 8 and this trip is very good for a larger group like that!
I would like to have known more about what was provided before we arrived. We were told there were no bottle cages, but our bike had them. i didnt bring a bottle because i thought we would not have them. Also, we did NOT have large packs on the bike, which we were told we WOULD have. So my packing was just the opposite of what I would have packed had i known the actual equipment. But we sorted it out after the first day and got on with it! Loved the vest we got for the tour, it served me very well. i used it every day. We rented the gravel bikes, well worth the money if you are an avid cyclist. They were great bikes!!- What was the date of your tour?

Fab 4 Bike trip
Vienna to Budapest (Classic)
We had a wonderful time biking the Danube from Vienna to Budapest. The accommodations were great and the app was easy to follow. The bikes were very comfortable with soft seats and fairly upright so no wrist or neck issues. Our group of four ladies was a perfect amount of people to travel with. I would encourage anyone who can bike to do this trip.
