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?

Wonderful trip in beautiful Puglia
Exploring Italy's Sunny Salento by Bike
We loved this tour. The scenery along the coast is so beautiful and all the villages to visit along the way are very charming. Everywhere you find restaurants with good italian cuisine.
The hotels were all 4 stars and matched our expectations with maybe one exception. The best one was in Otranto.
The route is easy to bike even though we chose rode bikes without electricity but then we cycle a lot all year round but the route is not hilly at all except from Leuca to Otranto.
All communication with bike tours and the local guide were excellent.
We really fell in love with Puglia and definitely hope to come back some day.- Countries included in this tour?

Great experience !

This was a great trip, we enjoyed visiting Andalucía and some of their great towns and cities. We had excellent support through our ride by Jorge. He will provide information on restaurants and places to visit in each town , he also helped us when one of our bikes had a flat tire !!
There are a lot of hills to climb but the views are worth it ! the hotels were excellent , and included a couple of Paradors that were amazing- What was the date of your tour?

Amazing bike holiday
Lake Constance Bicycle Path
Our bike holiday this summer was a perfect way to discover and enjoy the wonderful landscapes and sights of Germany, Switzerland and Austria, riding along Lake Constance in five days, between August 21 and August 25. The weather was excellent: no rain and not very hot, just perfect.

Best Guided Tour Ever!
UNESCO Sites of Albania
UNESCO Sites of Albania was the best guided tour I have ever done. Not only did the food and scenery exceed their reputations, the accommodations and bikes were excellent. More importantly, our guide and driver/mechanic were extremely efficient, knowledgeable, helpful, and cheerful—they left us wanting for nothing! I highly recommend it.

Loved our trip, amazing way to see this part of the world
Lake Constance Bicycle Path
We loved every minute of our trip. We got lost a few times, but realised that in Austria the sign posting wasn't as reliable than it was in Germany and Switzerland.
Accommodation was exceptional at each location, and breakfasts were more than we expected.- What was the date of your tour?

Perfect trip and ride for vacation
Medieval Villages of Catalonia
We loved the rides, and places to stay on this trip. Daniel did an excellent job prepping us and providing us with a gps and a smartphone with a map that made this the easiest self guided tour we have done. The hotels we stayed at and the towns were beautiful. Do not pass up eating at Hotel Arcs in Monells. Best meal of trip and we had a lot of great meals.

Vines, Olives, Castles ...
Tuscany and Umbria: Cycling in the Heart of Italy
Wonderful way to see Umbria and (a little bit of) Tuscany at our own pace. It was a pleasure to be welcomed by small bars in areas less frequented by tourists. All details provided by the tour operator were first class. Bikes were good quality, trip notes were easy to understand (and although it only happened a couple of times, it was clear when we went wrong!). All accommodations were welcoming and friendly and all had secure, undercover places for the bikes. The B&B in Castiglione del Lago is particularly worthy of compliment.
We upgraded to road bikes (we are keen road cyclists) and were glad that we had. In hindsight, we should have realised that all mediaeval towns are built on hilltops so although the pre-ride info suggested rolling hills, be prepared for some very steep (although not long) climbs. According to my Garmin, the approach to Orvieto reached nearly a 20% slope for 500m.
Italian drivers all appeared to be very courteous and we had no problems negotiating traffic. The route has been chosen to avoid traffic as much as possible and I would not expect even timid cyclists have a problem with other road users. Unfortunately, some of the quieter roads are also less well maintained, so be prepared to pick your line carefully to avoid potholes and rough road surfaces in some places.
We will treasure our memories of riding through centuries old town gates towards our nightly accommodation - that's not an experience we can have in Australia.

A wonderful experience.
Cycling and Cooking in Tuscany
Amazing chief who not only made us delicious meals but also taught us how to make many tasty dishes. He was so friendly and involved and eager to share his love of Italian cooking.
The biking guide and support were always concerned for our comfort with our route and making sure we had water and snacks. We cancelled riding one day due to serious rain so they drove us to the beautiful cities we would have cycled to and we were able to explore.
Our accommodations were lovely and my room had a beautiful view over the valley.
There was a swimming pool but temperatures were just a little too cool to enjoy the pool. The house/kitchen staff were helpful and kind. Breakfasts were delicious with a variety of foods to choose from.
In all it was a wonderful experience for me and I met some lovely people.- Countries included in this tour?

a memorable vacation
Danube Bike Path 7 Nights (Classic)
We enjoyed our bike trip along the Danube River in Austria immensely. Dedicated bike paths that were paved and level made for easy biking. Beautiful scenery along the river and thru farms and vineyards , picturesque little towns, lovely churches, monasteries, and castles. Also toured the concentration camp memorial at Mauthausen. The bike tour company did a great job with all the logistics, planning the route, booking our hotels, and transporting our
luggage.

Absolutely fantastic trip!!!

Fantastic Ride from Prague to Dresden
Prague to Dresden Along the Vltava & Elbe Rivers
Great fun, bonus being that it mostly followed the Elbe River downstream to Prague so wasn't very strenuous, just a few hills here and there. Our guide Milan was great - definitely worth having along as (1) he spoke Czech which none of us did ! and (2) added in some side tours which would have almost certainly missed had he not been along. Also, our support lady Jitke was really helpful and very useful to have on hand, she moved our luggage every day effortlessly ! Great scenery, great beer (some of the wine was a bit ordinary) and great food. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

★★★★★ Nico Gillis
A great way to start exploring Europe by bike!
Prague to Dresden Along the Vltava & Elbe Rivers
This trip was great! The route we followed was very doable for everyone in the group, with mostly paved trails and followed well-posted rivers. Our hotels were each unique, charming and comfortable. Every city we stayed in had things so see on a short walk and all the meals were great! Our guides were knowledgeable, kind, and great company. Every day felt unique and the group got closer with every ride and shared dinner together. This trip was definitely a great memory that I will cherish for years to come.
