Interesting and fun bike ride!
Tuscany and Umbria: Cycling in the Heart of Italy
The trip was well organized. Great communication with Bike Tours during the planning, and the local bike company was exceptional. We used e-bikes, which made the trip very enjoyable.
There was some road traffic getting in/out of cities, but within a mile we were on country roads or trails. The bikes were great, with plenty of range to use additional assist for the long uphills. The variety of lodgings was interesting (old and modern), and the GPS for the self-guided tour worked perfectly. Highly recommend!- What was the date of your tour?

Dreams really do come true....
Tulip Tour - Bike & Boat Holland's Famous Tulip Fields
the perfect way to experience Holland's beauty, history and charms. Our guides were knowledgeable , experienced , entertaining and ( in the case of our trip) resourceful in case of the unexpected. The barge staff were equally amazing. I Highly recommend this adventure for biking community members.

Spring in Spain is breathtaking. Filled with wildflowers and glowing green.
Albarracín to Valencia Along Spain's Longest Greenway
Starting with the ancient beauty of Albarracin, through the pine forests, red rock cliffs, orchards, and rolling hills, the scenery was often spectacular. And at each latitude a different array of wildflowers. There was some construction on the trail that created a challenge but seems that is part of biking. The issues we encountered on the route could have been better addressed with clear communication. We spent an extra day in both Valencia and Alberracin. I would suggest a day break halfway through the trip also. Segorbe would be a good choice. A little R&R after the 40 mile day. Breakfasts and hotels were great. The bikes, we had ebikes, were a little beat up. Had some trouble with the chain slipping on one bike, the battery didn't last the full 40 miles on the other and the pedals were locking up on the last day. A chain cleaning cloth and some lubricant would be helpful in the tool bag. All in all an adventure with far more moments of awe than hassle.

Amazing way to see Crete
Aegean Discovery: Cycling through Eastern Crete
Overall this is an amazing way to see an amazing island. The hotels were all nice with good breakfasts, and all of the planning and logistics went quite smoothly. The tour company was quite responsive and helpful when issues arose. Definitely get an E-bike though, there are tons of hills on Crete! The days were all quite manageable with an E-bike. The route went through a nice mix of villages, countryside and along the Ocean. The route is entirely on roads (no bike paths), some of which were a bit busy at times. There are a few touristy things to see along the way each day as well which was nice.

Easy and scenic
Lake Constance Bicycle Path
gREAT trip, excellent accommodation but to improve accommodation we would recommend having tea/coffee making facilities in every room and preferably a small fridge that guests can keep cool drinks in. Especially important at end of a day if guests arrive hot, tired or thirsty

Beautiful scenery, well-supported trip
Portugal's Coastal Splendor from Porto to Lisbon
Our local agency provided the best customer service I’ve had in three European bike trips. They gave great sightseeing and restaurant recommendations, communicated daily and solved problems quickly. We were self-guided, but they rode with us out of town in our first day, to make sure we got on the right route. The hotels were terrific, route was beautiful,
the Portuguese people were charming and welcoming.- What was the date of your tour?

One of our best tours ever!
Biking Through the Heel of Italy from Puglia to Salento
We have taken 11 bike tours over the years and we believe that this may have been the best so far.
The bikes were great, the navigation was spot on, the support was excellent, and the trip was well thought out.All of the inns and hotels were clean and perfectly located, and the staff was always friendly and helpful. They all had easily accessible places to store and charge the e-bikes. The breakfasts were well stocked and enjoyable. One inn had dinner included and it was top notch.
The rides were all very well planned out and took us through olive groves, vineyards, farms, and some of the most beautiful coastal views we have ever seen. Routes were mostly on very quiet roads or bike paths. Getting in and out of some of the bigger towns required riding on city streets but that was expected and did not last long.
The trip included a few excursions that were also very enjoyable. Wine tasting, olive oil tasting, city tour, and even a boat cruise.
Every night we ate at one of the suggested restaurants, and they were all wonderful--away from the crowded touristy spots, but still nearby.
We arrived for Day One of our tour on a Sunday, so it worked out that we passed through some of the smaller towns on the weekend when everything was open even in pre-season (our trip was in April).
We also made some extra stops and detours along the way to enjoy more sites and scenery. Be sure to read the points of interest in the materials provided, take it slow, and enjoy the journey.

An excellently orchestrated ride!
Bruges to Dutch Border Bike Tour
We loved the well planned routes! Our guides, Alice and Thomas, were top notch professionals — informative and entertaining. The crew…Sabrina, Kevin and cook Joost were also top notch. No detail was missed.
The cabins suited our needs beautifully. As campers we are accustomed to a smaller footprint. The under-bed storage for luggage and above the bed cabinets for clothing were an unexpected plus.
Looking forward to another trip on the Iris!!!

Beautiful destinations and scenic travel
Danube Delights: Biking through Four Countries
Our first bike and boat trip but won't be our last. What a great way to experience both the typical travel destinations and some of the beautiful countryside and small villages in between them. The crew and cruise director were so friendly and welcoming. We had very comfortable accommodations and got to meet so many other like-minded travelers.

Loire a Velo: Orleans to the Atlantic
The trip was memorable!!! The 4-star hotels were well-located and offered excellent service. The distances covered were appropriate, leaving plenty of free time to enjoy the destination upon arrival. The electric bikes worked perfectly. Kate's attention and advice before and during the trip, as well as that of the local provider, were invaluable. We will definitely book with Biketours again.

Incredible Experience, highly recommend!
Albarracín to Valencia Along Spain's Longest Greenway
Wonderful experience. Very peaceful ride with very few other cyclists or walkers on the route (April). The support from Sandi and his team was really good, with updates every day that included restaurant recommendations, very helpful. Accommodations and breakfasts were top notch.
The bikes were heavy, about 30 pounds, with larger tyres and lots of gears: both the tyres and gears were much needed at times: a long steady climb on day one and lots of gravel on other days.The tour ended with two nights in Valencia staying in a busier area: perfect for those looking to explore the city but for those who like the countryside they may wish to tweak the itinerary. We loved all the beautiful scenery, riding through the tunnels, and staying in beautiful and tidy towns. The value for the price was very high, and we are definitely recommending it to friends.

Beautiful way to see the local side of Istanbul
Europe & Asia Istanbul Bike Tour
We took this tour and Tolga was our guide for the ride. Our group was larger, so we had additional guides to help with safety crossing busy roads and keeping eyes on everyone in crowded areas. It was especially helpful when I made the rookie mistake of shifting gears without pedaling and my chain fell off.
Seeing neighborhoods throughout the European and Asian side of Istanbul and learning architectural and cultural history with such nice guides was my favorite part of this vacation. I would do it again because the ride is lovely and, other than 1-2 reasonable hills, very smooth. I would highly recommend to anyone comfortable biking. You see so much of the city that you wouldn’t explore on your own, and you still have the rest of the day to do something else.
