Super poor communications from Tripsite. Lack of timely information regarding changes in the itinerary did not allow us any opportunity to cancel or reschedule or discuss options. We contacted Tripsite many times and most Inquires to Tripsite staff and requests for manager to call did not get a response.

Crew on the boat tried to be positive and accommodate a new plan but the boat hadn’t been to the scheduled stops in months. Better communication from Tripsite would have enabled us to make changes or adjust. We were unable to boat to several stops and a 3 hour each way bus ride was simply not an acceptable option.

I would not use Tripsite again.

Stunningly beautiful scenery! Cycling was very easy with an e-bike.

Very nice bike boat tour. Nice service, nice boat, great bike guide . Generally, great trip!

We loved our time aboard the Sundial and the beauty of the Aeolian Islands. Angelo and his family offered an amazing experience for onboard living, planning for our daily excursions (a shout out to Nico here for his wonderful e-bike tours) and delicious meals embracing regional food. The scenery was stunning, especially the erupting volcano Stromboli!

The guides and the crew were fantastic. The scenery and history was breathtaking. The cabin was spacious, food was excellent. The bikes were easy to use. Really enjoyed the long ride to Groznjan.

The scenery was excellent. We swam every day at lovely beaches in crystal clear water. Our guides, Ester and Dimitri were excellent.

Biking was great.
Negative was the extremely wavy waters the last two nights. Many people got sick.

The biking was so wonderful. Stopping to explore castles, having lunch at a beautiful lake, having time to explore on our own.
The dinners on board were so delicious. The boat itself was beautiful. Big enough to find yourself alone or a part of a crowd talking about the day that just passed.

Our last night on the boat was quite memorable. The meal was excellent and beautifully prepared. Entertainment on board was an added surprise and made all the more fun when our captain, the staff and our guides joined in the revelry. The whole trip was very well executed and the staff and guides were top notch.

The Harmonia is a beautiful and comfortable boat. Our trip was just wonderful. The staff on the boat were friendly and the food was plentiful and delicious. The bikes were comfortable and super well maintained. Our guides really made the trip for us.
When asked about the best part,…. It’s the feeling you get riding thru the countryside from village to village. It was always nice come back to the comfortable boat, on the Adriatic Sea.

This hiking tour was nothing short of incredible. The Ponta do Sol to Cruzinha trail was a particular highlight, with unforgettable views the whole way. We experienced such a diverse array of landscapes each day, from lush mountains to black sand beaches, and the guides became like great friends. Cape Verde hadn't been on my radar until I took this trip, but now I want to go back to experience even more of these breathtaking islands. I'd absolutely recommend this tour to those who love to hike.

Just biking through the vineyards, olive and cork farms was amazing. Biking through the small villages was a great experience.

Bikes were top quality, guides (Thomas and Wim) were fun, cook was excellent - food choices good. Iris (the barge) beds were comfortable. Hostess/waitress was very helpful. Crew (Kevin) was available and very nice. Captain did a great job navigating. Days riding (6) were well planned out with frequent breaks, so no sore bottoms. Room was small (as expected on a barge) but more than adequate. Private shower larger than expected. Next time I go I will remember to bring magnetic hooks for more hanging space. It was a great trip.

I loved the cycling, our accommodations were excellent especially the farm guest homes, and our guides were very friendly. It was great to have swimming pools at several hotels. I especially liked Lucca and Sienna. What would have made this trip better was having more participants. There were only four of us. Our guide, Antonio, was very nice especially towards the end of our trip when he shared information about the farms and vineyards, etc. and at our final dinner. However, I think our pace was too fast and it left me and others struggling to keep up. I think a slower pace and more frequent stops to talk about the environment and maybe take photos would have made the tour better. I also thought the bikes were not of the same quality as in previous tours. Mine had very squeaky brakes.

The captain & crew of the barge, as well as our bike tour leader Hetty, we're great. We enjoyed spending time in that part of Germany.

This was the highlight of our holiday. great support. great way to see the country. only regret was having a few extra days. Highly recommend this tour. The app with the tour maps was very easy to follow and therefore stress free.

The boat was spacious. The food amazing. The guides stellar. What more can I say?

The countryside that we cycled through was beautiful and the cycling infrastructure incredible! Belgium and The Netherlands were perfect locations for a first bike trip for us. Also loved staying on the boat so we didn’t have to worry about meals or packing up!

This was a fantastic tour, love the country side of Belgium and Holland. Of course very biking friendly. the staff and support were fantastic. This was a self guided tour and our Tour guide gave us great briefing daily. I would recommend this tour to any one who wishes to bike and enjoy visiting .

Enjoyed the short time I was there. Great people. Franklin was very helpful when I landed in hospital.

Although the Danube River was at a 100yr+ low and we were unable to traverse past Vienna, the cruise offered several alternative exploring options that satisfied my group.

Met some really nice people at out table that included us with their group.
All the staff were extremely kind and courteous.

Excellent trip. This is our 3rd Bike and Boat adventure with Trip Site and our favorite. The weather was a little rough - rain and rolling seas. The captain and crew made it truly enjoyable. It is a very unique tour - great adventure touring the various volcanic Islands. We loved seeing the active volcano at night and touring the vineyards in Salina.

Outstanding tour leader and overall crew. Well-planned routes (except for the gravel parts :) and interesting sights. Excellent, plentiful food. Wonderful fellow travelers. Basic but comfortable cabin. This was a very memorable experience for us, and we would enjoy another similar tour with this company.

Riding from Amsterdam to Bruges was such an awesome way to see the gorgeous countryside, canal paths and charming little towns on the ride. Coming back to the boat every evening was definitely the highlight, with great food, relaxing views from the water, and fun company to unwind with.

Very well organized, everything was nicely done. My only negative feedback is that the daily stops were too many and much too long! There is no need for a 40 minute coffee break at 10am when we had just begun riding at 9am. The lunch breaks were also too long, I would much have preferred riding for an hour+ and then stopping for a quick break. Breaks could have been 20 minutes. The stop in Trier was also too long at almost 3 hours, it was unexpected and we were not prepared to be left on our own to kill that amount of time. It would have been better to have spent that time riding, or at least give us a heads up that we would be on our own so plan accordingly, in my opinion it was a waste of time.

Everything was great. The guides were friendly and knowledgable. The food was excellent. The Harmonia was beautiful.

Memorable was the first farm we stayed at with the 2000 year old trees and stories of an archeological dig. We were very grateful for the interpreter that the tour provided at that first farm stay.

The lodging was outstanding in every location. It was easy to get to restaurants and museums from our old town locations.

We did extra days in Matera before the ride and we were very glad we did.

We had a language mixup. They asked if we wanted a twin rooms or a double. And I assumed twin meant putting two twins together for us. But it actually meant two places to sleep as if Steve and I were not a couple. If they would have asked, do you sleep separately and want separatel beds I would have understood. So many of our accommodations had the couch made up or an extra bed in the room. It was a waist

We could have used a paneer. They asked us to haul the charger with us on the bikes. That, the tools, the pump, the extra tube... There wasn't much room for stashing jackets and rain gear. We both broke the strap on the top of the back bag trying to fit our jacket under it.

The boat Staff was excellent we were well taken care of. The Food served onboard was awesome.

The Bike Staff had a couple daily meetings with the group. Keeping us informed of daily rides.
They also were very helpful if needed along the routes.

We had a very enjoyable time.

The rides, service and food were amazing. We had so much fun.
