★★★★★ Ann Hippe
Great way to experience rural Greece
Greece: The Peloponnese Peninsula
We really enjoyed the tour. The small towns we stayed in were a delight to explore and the hotels were in good locations and had great character. When we had questions about the bikes or other issues, the tour company was very responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend this bike tour to anyone. Most of us had e-bikes which were very much appreciated as there were climbs that were a bit challenging

From The Mountains To The Sea
Greece: The Peloponnese Peninsula
From start to finish the trip was tremendously engaging. We covered beautiful and varied landscape. Time in the mountains and time on the water, could not have been much nicer. The high mountains were a nice cool temperature and the sea was comfortably warm. All the biking was pleasant and manageable. It was a great family trip for the 4 of us. And, it was something that we hadn't done in a number of years. We are quite grateful that everything was so well organized. Support all along the way could not have been better. Highly highly recommend the trip.

Great Trip
Greece: The Peloponnese Peninsula
What a beautiful ride through Greece! I loved riding through all the olive grove and grape fields, seeing the sheep in the street and the goats. The weather was perfect everyday. The bikes were great! The towns were fun to explore. We especially like Vytina and Nafplio. Our hotels were great. We asked for an upgrade to have a Seaview in Nafplio and we were glad we did! Our upgrade was right by the water and close to everything! The staff of Arcas were very helpful.
It was rated a 2 but I would say it was more of a 3. There were a lot of long descents but there was a fair amount of uphill as well.
I used a trek touring bike and I bike regularly 2-3 times a week 15-25 miles, but the hills were
challenging for me.- What was the date of your tour?

Perfect balance for families
Ionian Islands Multi-sport Family Cruise
We went on this tour at the end of a long summer travel, and it was the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation for our family. Our guides, Tina and Niovi were absolute pros - warm, available, generous and skilled. The level of exertion was just right for our healthy but not super fit family - we got close to our limits for vacation but never felt pushed too far and therefore ended up feeling improved without feeling depleted. The delicious and generous shared meals are served family style so there was plenty of opportunity to socialize with the other guests, and we were lucky to have similar age kids on our trip. The boat is absolutely "ship-shape", in great condition and well maintained and the captain and crew work hard to make it the most comfortable experience possible. They warned us in advance when we might expect swells, and even those days were delightful sailing so I am sure they timed and charted the course for our benefit.

Fantastic Holiday
Ionian Islands Multi-sport Family Cruise
I had a great time. Tour guides, Chryssa and Katerina we knowledgable, helpful and lovely. The crew were very accommodating and helpful. The food was great. I loved swimming straight of the boat into that lovely water. I would definitely recommend. The rides are short as advertised, but unless you are very good at steep hills, get an ebike.

Beautiful route and perfect overnights.
Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
Loved this trip. the route was well planned out and we loved the accommodations. Very hilly. One of the four of us had an Ebike, and we all wished we had one. Highly recommend this trip. This was our third Biketours.com trip, and we are looking forward to number four.

Cycling adventure in Greece!
Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
The trip was great! It is always such a unique experience to cycle and explore new places on bike. The people and the food in Greece is 10 out of 10!!
Some days were a bit demanding (especially the first day) as we had non electric racers.
The highligts were Gythio, Monemvasia and the island Elanfonosis, though every village is charming and worth visiting. The cycling paths were non traffical with few exceptions and we find the drivers very polite and gave us enough space. Self guided was not a problem as the app was great and easy to follow.
As we had the trip in low season it was some times a bit hard to find a place opened for lunch but always managed in the end!
Hopefully this was only the beginning of cycling in Greece.- What was the date of your tour?

The Quiet Side of Greece
Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
After the hustle and bustle of Athens so enjoyed our cycling experience in much smaller Greek towns with more of a local atmosphere. The bike company did an outstanding job of route planning, a harder day followed by an easier one with the option to include a rest/ exploring day instead. The local accommodations were varied and all excellent and no issues checking in, sometimes earlier if we finished quicker. The luggage transfer was flawless. The hills and wind made it challenging but still so enjoyable.

Another bike tour on my bucket list ticked off
Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
This ride is a terrific way to see the Peloponnese. I found the section from Sparta to Gytheio the most interesting, with trails through olive and citrus groves. The Byzantine site of Mystras is well worth spending time. With a warning that to visit takes a while and the road to it is very steep particularly if you’re visiting the Frankish castle above the monastery buildings. Being in my 70’s I was grateful that I ordered an e-bike, but 22 kms from Gytheio I ran out of battery and had to pedal the distance and doing this with 26 kilo bike wasn’t easy. Organisers may consider an e-bike with a larger battery power. The battery lasted just long enough to complete the beach tour from Gytheio the following day. There were a variety of trails and not too much peddling on main roads. The hotels were very good and friendly service.

The REAL Greece Experience
Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
This was one of the most (if not THE most) enjoyable tour we have done in Europe with Biketours.com
The itinerary was excellent - each day was quite different. Some of the little portside villages we called into were exquisite as were the local people & food we enjoyed along the way. The bikes were superb as was the navigation system which never let us down. The briefing we received at Sparta (Fotus) & support along the way was first class. All in all a brilliant ride where we really soaked up the glorious sights, sounds & smells of the beautiful Pelopenese.- What was the date of your tour?

Trip exceeded my expectations!
Sparta and the Mediterranean Coast
We were on the self-guided trip. The GPS instructions are fantastic! We had e-bikes which were excellent and comfortable.
It seems like the Peloponnese Peninsula is an undiscovered gem. We went in the middle of September and it was not at all crowded and so beautiful. We often had the beaches to ourselves and the water was wonderful to swim in. We swam in the Sea everyday on this trip.
The roads are very good. If you are questioning at all whether to get an e-bike, you should. Our goal was to enjoy the trip and not worry about the next hill… and there will be the next hill. There are a lot of challenging climbs on this trip but very doable with an e-bike (and with a road bike if you want the challenge).
The scenery is incredible! You are surrounded by mountains, the Aegean Sea, and a lot of olive and orange groves.
You start in Sparta, which was our least favorite spot/hotel but it’s really just overnight and then you head to the coast! All of the other towns and hotels were so much better. We were very impressed with our hotels which all had balconies overlooking the sea.
The GPS gets you to the town but not necessarily to the exact hotel. When we got to Elea, we had to rely on Google Maps to actually find our hotel, so be aware of that. That was the only tricky one.
We bought the transport from and to Athens. The drivers were both terrific and they are actually guides for the company so during the ride they share so much information about the area. I asked to see the Corinth Canal (which you pass by) and our driver took us there and gave us a 15 minute car break to walk over it and take pictures!
The bikes have water bottle holders, a phone holder and a rack on the back which the pannier is attached to.
This trip exceeded my expectations!

Best kind of Bike Trip
Founder's Tour: Turkey and Greece E-Bike & Boat tour
This is our 4th bike and boat tour-if you ve never traveled this way you need to give it a try . What could be better than starting your day in a small harbor, with a wonderful breakfast on deck, then going for an exciting ride , coming back for a swim in the Adriatic, and then cruising to the next port in time for dinner? The food n the boat was plentiful and delicious. Because it’s a smaller boat we were able to spend time in smaller uncrowded harbors. He biking was challenging but the excellent e-bikes made it fun for all ages . Everyone on the boat agreed that two weeks was ideal-a one week trip just doesn’t give you enough time to settle in. There was never a dull day and if you don’t want to ride you can stay on the boat or walk the town-lots of options and flexibility. This would also be a good trip for a non rider in the family. I also highly recommend the Croatia bike and boat trip-it was fabulous. October is the best time to be in any of these places. The weather was warm enough to swim all the time and things weren’t as crowded as during the summer
