Great trip
Innsbruck to Lake Garda Across the Southern Slopes of the Alps
Very well organised. Lovely hotels. Superb helpline which we ended up using daily as one of our group was ill and couldn’t cycle most days. The help included the bike being transported on the days it couldn’t be cycled and when that couldn’t happen a new bike got delivered instead. Amazing.

Great trip
Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)
Overall it was a great trip. We had standard bikes and never had a problem with them. Our bags arrived with no problems.
It was lovely riding along the Danube and seeing different small towns in Austria. It was very hot when we were there with a head wind so some hard days but doable. -

Life-time experience!
Prague to Vienna via Cesky Krumlov
We had a wonderful experience on this tour and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. Our guide, Milan, and our driver, Henry, were exceptionally helpful, friendly, and professional throughout the journey. Milan enriched the experience by providing extensive historical context and fascinating insights about the places we visited, which made the tour even more memorable.
The cycling route was excellent and very scenic. Some sections, particularly the hilly terrain, were quite challenging, but the rest of the route was manageable and enjoyable. The effort was definitely worth it, given the beautiful landscapes and rewarding experience.
Overall, this was an outstanding tour, and I would definitely do it again. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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.

A good experience
Danube Delights: Biking through Four Countries
Due to the low water levels of the Danube, we were bused to Budapest. The guides were not provided transmitters, so the walking tours were hard to follow.
Kudos to the ship crew and cruise director, Jürgen. -

Beautiful scenery
Innsbruck to Salzburg: Through the Alps Along River Cycle Trails
Great way to see beautiful Austrian scenery and small villages as well. Weather was great and our local contact, Helmut was fantastic. I messed up on the deadline to pick up our bikes and he coordinated with the bike shop to adapt to my mistake and meet us after hours! Much appreciated! Also, my wife had some back problems and he coordinated transfer for her on 2 days and a train related short cut for the biking on another day so she could take part as she improved. He was immediately accessible, kind, and sooo helpful.Also the employee at crazy bikes who stayed after hours to get us our bikes in Innsbruck. Thanks for all the extra effort! The hotels were all very nice with great breakfasts and staff. We did not do the extra stay day in Zell am See but would recommend it. Biking days were well balanced with some shorter and a couple longer days. One of the best tours of the many I have done with bike tours!

A great intro to bike touring
Danube Cycle Path Passau – Budapest
This was a fairly gentle tour along the river, passing through and staying in some lovely picturesque cities and towns. The scenery was sometimes pretty but lengthy sections could be monotonous. This isn't anyone's fault - it's the official Euro Velo route.
On two days, train tickets were provided, presumably to limit the distance ridden, but, on both occasions, we elected to ride, making the longest days a touch over 80km and there was ample range in the ebikes for that. The bikes were great and appeared almost brand new. I would, however, recommend a pair (or two) of bike shorts or your own saddle.
The (optional) phone app from the local tour operator (Pedalo) was generally good for navigation, though a distance countdown for the day's ride would be a great addition.
However, we only stumbled over information about the day 1 briefing and bike handover in the app at the last second. More proactive communication (a welcome email a couple of days out?) would have been helpful. Pedalo support was good when we needed to contact them, though.- What was the date of your tour?

One week like few seconds
Innsbruck to Lake Garda Across the Southern Slopes of the Alps
We took our ride from Innsbruck to Lake Garda at the beginning of September and we were lucky for sunny weather. Electric bikes were quite new, but they belonged to the urban types. They worked on those flat and asphalt paths that dominated but they would be deceiving on the gravel paths. The organization of luggage transport and the quality of the hotels were perfect and the alpine landscapes as you might expect were gorgeous. Local tour operator guys were friendly and helpful.

Great location and great rides
Bicycle Paths of the Dolomites (based in one hotel)
The rides were as described and beautiful. The hotel was outstanding with bountiful breakfasts and amazing and delicious dinners. The rating is a 4 because the bike rental company did not provide the bikes and gear we understood that we were getting when we signed up and essentially had to beg for what we paid for.

The Magnificent Dolomites
Bicycle Paths of the Dolomites (based in one hotel)
This a dream place, if mountains are your pleasure! The paths are well marked and take you through some glorious scenery! We stayed at Hotel Laurin, which is a family owned hotel that works to accommodate its guests. Returning to the same hotel after a day of riding and then enjoying the sauna, pool, and lounging areas adds to the rejuvenating aspect of the vacation. But one of the best things about Hotel Laurin is the fantastic 5 course dinners and the wonderful breakfasts. I would also like to praise the USA’s BikeTours staff who are very responsive and work to answer all your concerns. Can’t say enough good about this choice for a great vacation!

Peaceful Mosel
Mosel Bike Path: Dreamy Mosel Valley from Trier to Koblenz
Riding along the Mosel was peaceful, beautiful, and fascinating. To see the ingenuity, commitment, and caring of vineyards on the steep inclines of the bluffs along the Mosel created amazement and interest. The trail at time were easy enough to allow a lot of gazing. However, there were also paths with surprises, i.e. blind turns that suddenly led to a steep incline, rather narrow paths along side the road, and sometimes narrow gravel paths. But, some of that, I guess, can be expected. We did have trouble downloading the navigation system and called Pedalo Company for help. Johannas came to the rescue, but with much effort to get us setup. We were very pleased with all the hotels except for our last one, Mecure Hotel in Koblenz, it was adequate, but we were quite spoiled by the others and the standard was not quite as high as the previous ones. A bigger problem at the Mecure was their inadequate bike storage, i.e. the bike cage had no electrical outlets for eBikes, so, the hotel had to store the bikes in a different area until charged and we could only charge one at a time. Upon the completion of charging, we had to take the bikes down to the bike cage. Another problem with the Pedalo agenda was the wine tasting. There was little help in telling us if we could bike or walk there, it was difficult to find, and the tour guide of the tasting said she would translate her 45 min. presentation in English now and then, but failed to. I was able, with my limited German, to understand most of it, but my friend was unable to and was, therefore, left out of the information. The wine we tasted was excellent, however! FYI, at Hotel Kessler Meyer in Cochem, do not trust google maps to get you to the hotel. It takes you to a dead end after a very steep street incline. Call the hotel for an easier way. In spite of those concerns, the trip down the Mosel was beautiful and overall thoroughly enjoyed.
