· Along the Danube - Passau to Vienna

We loved every part of this tour! The scenery along the Danube was incredible to bike through. Our rides through beautiful towns, villages and countryside were so picturesque and generally easy to follow.

The accommodations were luxurious - spotlessly clean and included everything we needed and the meals were delicious culinary delights.

But above all, the crew on board were fantastic from housekeeping to the ship musician. The crew was tireless in making sure we were comfortable and were so friendly and fun!

The only negative was that the wifi was non-existent to poor which had an impact on planning the next leg of our trip.

I would highly recommend and am looking forward to our next one!

· Along the Danube - Four Country Tour

Liked the disco night. The fourth ride was beautiful.
Meals were also good and super service.
My e-bike was too heavy for me- suggest a more compact and less heavy bike for smaller women. Also, we had wanted to book a guide for the 9 of us and there were only 2 on this boat. We would have enjoyed having one to eliminate getting lost and also helping us find fun locations to stop enroute. We did this on our Italian trip and it made a large difference to our enjoyment.
Your staff are very helpful and pleasant. Well done overall.

· Metz to Cochem

This was our 4th Bike & Barge trip with Tripsite; all memorable & enjoyable. The 2 guides we had on this trip, Weiger and Hetty were phenomenal. They were very helpful and knowledgeable about so many of the sights along the Moselle River. We had 20 guests on this trip. Most of the 6 biking days, our guides had us split up in 2 groups which worked out perfectly. The weather was great 95% of the time; great Barge Captain and crew. Beautiful scenery and nice barge.

How did the difficulty level compare to your expectations?
The biking difficultly was as expected. Im 60 and rented an ebike. I rode with and without pedal assist depending on the terrain and energy level. The marked bike paths were scenic and easy to follow. The navigation was sometimes trcky when a bike path ended or there was a detour.

· Denmark and Sweden’s Scenic Coastlines

The most memorable part of the trip is a difficult decision because there were so many experiences from which to choose. I think, though, I’ll never forget seeing the ship for the first time when our uber driver drove his car almost right up to the gang plank! To know that I was going to be on a sailing ship and bicycling in Denmark and Sweden for 8 days and 7 nights was a WOW moment.

· Bike & Sail Holland’s UNESCO Wadden Sea & IJsselmeer

Great bike tour of a beautiful, natural area of the Netherlands; Terschelling, in particular, was a spectacular ride. Our tour guides, Anja and Hans, did a great job providing background information on all the ports and sights as well as adjusting the rides based on rain and wind, and the needs of the captain. On our tour, they had extra e-bikes, which they were able to offer to pedal-bike users (for a daily fee) on the two windiest days. The boat was comfortable and the sailing easy, which made for a unique experience compared with more common barge or hotel-to-hotel tours.

· Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The harbor towns and the biking were most memorable. We enjoyed the commaraderie of the group we were with. I feel we learned about Croatian history and current affairs. We loved the in depth experience of Croatian island life we got as we biked around the islands.

This was a spectacular time to tour the German countryside. While biking the countryside, we took in castles, churches and farmers markets. We watched the amazing grape harvest, talked to the vineyard owners and tasted great wines. I would do it again!

· Amsterdam to Bruges

We elected to do self guided rides every day, this allowed us to stop and take photos, or explore as much as we wanted at each stop. The Ride GPS app worked great! We could confidently strike out on our own. Guides (Corry and Anna) answered any questions we had, to clarify stops, what to do, etc. before we set out. The evening tours were a bonus we enjoyed each day. The barge was way more luxurious than we expected. Every staff member was super nice, and took care of any request we had. The food (snacks, meals and drinks) were also beyond our expectations. We were glad we packed rain gear, as we needed it 3 days. E-bikes made the miles very manageable (we elected long route every day), and the provided dry bag panniers were greatly appreciated. My first trip to Europe, and I believe biking 180 miles allowed me to experience The Netherlands and Belgium way better than someone visiting only the big cities. I HIGHLY recommend this trip for anyone who likes to bike.

Our group truly enjoyed the week on the Vivienne. The bike trails were well maintained and routes well marked which enabled us to enjoy the amazing scenery each day. The staff on Vivienne was incredible.
Two complaints were the e-bikes were very heavy
and there were no water bottle holders on the regular bikes.

Staff were great and worked very hard for all of us during the week. Unfortunately strong winds kept us docked for a day so we lost a day riding north as planned and caused other changes in the itinerary which apparently is not common but can happen. Food was very good and enjoyable to meet others from other countries during social hours.

We have taken other bike trips; however this experience was the most fun and memorable! Georgio our guide, his knowledge of the area was amazing. He packed in as much or less as our group wanted. His dry humor was really fun to be around. We miss him already! The food, amazing! Sara was our chef; the meals were perfect. The care she takes, and what she can put out in a 12 hour day is crazy. A fresh baked tart every morning, fruits, cheeses, meats, homemade granolas and yogurt. The deserts each night, were so....good! Sarita was the house manager. It being her first week, she did an outstanding job! The entire team acted as if they had been working together for years. We felt so lucky that we had such a great crew. Because it is a small group of 20 guests, you become friends fast. Each night a couple of guests would stand up and roast some of the other guests, it was so fun! We sang songs and played games after dinner every night. It was like summer camp for adults, a big sleep over. We will definitely be booking another trip!
