  Anna Maria IV Loire Valley Bike and Boat - 2019
France

Sorry, it rained the entire trip. Route and scenery would have been fine if not for that. Barge has seen better days. Staff (Stephan and Florence) are very pleasant.
Suggestion: Give the tour riders a sew-on patch to remember the tour.

  Zwaantje Champagne Tour
France

For the most part the trip was wonderful, I would like to put most of my answers right in the middle of satisfied and not satisfied, I just thought the scenery and the landscape etc. was not what I expected. That is not your fault, enjoyed my trips to Italy and Germany were much more scenic

  Soleo Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

Nothing bad or ugly. Scenery got better as we moved north. Group on our trip (both crew and guests) were great. Enjoyed the Soleo.

  Soleo Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

The trip was great! Mostly all positive. Tom and I would like to have the pace a bit faster....that was the only negative.

  Fleur Bruges to Paris
Belgium, France

Nearly everything excellent. The only downside was the cycling was promised to have the option of two different rides each day i.e. a long or a short ride with two different guides. There was only one guide so both options were compromised into one medium length ride each day. Many on the tour would have preferred a longer ride most days.

France, Germany, Luxembourg

  Fleur Bruges to Paris
Belgium, France

It was well above our expectations in every way, cabins, staff, cleanliness and the gourmet meals all the time. Fantastic experience.

  Fleur Bruges to Paris
Belgium, France

Everything exceeded expectations. I would definitely recommend the Fleur and trip

  Soleo Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

I was greatly appreciated to allow us to drink and enjoy the wine we purchased without any extra charge.

  L’Estello Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

Barge/cycling trips are a fantastic way to explore the countryside and towns - you see so much more when you are cycling. One vivid memory of a cycling trip through northern France was stopping to look at poppies growing along the side of the road. I love the fact that you do not have to pack up each day - it is a very relaxing experience. The diversity of people who do these trips also adds to the experience. The trips that I have done in the last three years had fantastic staff who were very friendly and knowledgeable. I have done two barge/bike trips and look forward to doing more in the future.

  Fleur Montargis to Paris
France

The crew and barge were just terrific. The food was excellent and plentiful. The French towns and scenery were a delight.

  Clair de Lune Around Paris
France

The staff was very friendly and they made our trip outstanding!

  Feniks Bruges to Paris
Belgium, France

Issues related to the boat: bad smell, cabin room was cozier than we would choose in the future. Laundry facilities were inadequate. We really enjoyed the trip, the guide and the experience!

  Soleo Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

This is the second barge and bike trip we took with Tripsite and I would have to say we liked the scenery more on the Taste of Burgundy than we did with Provence. Riding the in the Camargue got a little boring. Other than that we enjoyed the overall trip.

  Soleo Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

The Soleo was a disappointment in all respects.

  Clair de Lune Around Paris
France

It was a great trip. There were only 3 of us on the tour so they gave us each our own private cabin which was very much appreciated. Marco, the captain was one of the best boat captains. He shared a lot of information with us and really made the trip fun and interesting. Our guide was great too, and tailored each day to our needs because our group was so small. The food was good too, and a good variety. I only rated the food as "satisfied" because I toured the year before on the Zwaan, the Mosel and Saar tour, and the chef was soooooo good, that he spoiled me for future tours! If you have any questions on my experience on any tours, please let me know. And I hope to book one of your tours again ~~

  Soleo Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

More time in certain areas would have been nice. There were instances where it felt like we were being pushed along, and I appreciate that we had 22 people of varying age, skill experience and physical ability, and that we have to get back to the boat. Our guide was very good, but you needed to try and understand his manner, which could be short at times. He was knowledgeable, insightful and caring, but his manner did not necessarily reflect that. Meals were good but thought it would reflect more French cuisine of the Provence area, not a complaint, just an observation.
Staff was excellent and I continue to recommend this bike trip and company to friends."

  L’Estello Provence - Wilderness of Camargue
France

The trip exceeded my expectations. My wife and I especially enjoyed the company of the other travelers, and we all got along very well.

  Elodie Bruges to Paris
Belgium, France

Outstanding cuisine, wonderful smiles and life long memories. We have already recommended our trip to many people. Fantastic Elodie!

  Iris Metz to Cochem
France, Luxembourg, Germany

The trip was one of the best I have taken.

  Iris Metz to Cochem
France, Luxembourg, Germany

  Elodie Bruges to Paris
Belgium, France

Our second bike and barge trip with Tripsite. What a lovely way to spend a vacation!

  Fleur Montargis to Paris
France

One of my discoveries for this trip was that I think I prefer a self-guided tour to a guided one. The group was larger than what I was really comfortable with, as I like to stop for photos and wasn't comfortable doing that with the large group. (My spouse and I had just finished a 6 day self-guided tour thru Holland). The bikes were fine, but one of our group had constant problems with hers. The food was fine, but I prefer more options, and would have liked eating away from the lunch basket-type of fare we fixed ourselves from barge foods. I loved that the guides gave us interesting evening walking tours.

  Fleur Montargis to Paris
France

The price was very reasonable - much below others we considered.

  Elodie Bruges to Paris
Belgium, France

Food was great, would have liked more flexibility on cycling.

  Anna Maria IV Loire Valley Bike and Boat - 2019
France

The trip was organised very well. The international crew made the trip more interesting. We were glad that Peter had some flexibility in what we experienced. He was an excellent guide. We would have liked to stop at a few more wineries. Also we always seemed to be pulling into villages as they closed for lunch.
