A viagem foi muito agradável e bem organizada. Adoramos o roteiro e também todas as degustações. Tudo planejado e bem pensado para uma experiência perfeita na Umbria.
Sugiro repensaram dois hotéis.
Primeiro em Montefalco porque o quarto era muito pequeno para 3 pessoas, apesar da excelente localização.
Segundo em Assis, a distancia do hotel da cidade não é agradável visto que é necessária uma caminhada pela estrada.
Adoramos e faremos outros roteiros!

I enjoyed using the supplied route sheets and of course the all important ride with gps. This allowed us to travel at our own pace and stop when and where we wanted. The route along rivers let us pass through varied terrain, from agricultural lands to steep walled "canyons". We stayed mostly at Inns in small towns which were quiet and picturesque. The Czech Republic is a gem and I would recommend visiting, no matter how you get there.

There was some construction on the route. Got help from local cyclists to avoid the worst of it.
We had a great time!!!

Everything was amazing, the local representatives, the hotels and the staff in the hotels, the views, the bicycles, the local people that live in the area, we had the best time.
Everything was clear and we got a response for every question we had.

The scenery and people were amazing. Guides weee incredible . Everything I dreamed of but I would not say the tide was easy to moderate

This trip was completely amazing from the natural beauty to the personalized activities designed by our guide.

A great route with such history and two great cities! Would highly recommend not only the route, but the tour company. I was provided with Ride with GPS files in advance and a host of maps and other information upon arrival in Prague. They also use the "Trip Plans" app, which not only gives you the routes, but historical and other information about the towns you will be passing through and restaurant recommendations!

Great communication during the ride as well - even making a route change along the way due to road construction (they updated the Ride with GPS file in seemingly real time).

I have done a dozen or so self-guided solo bike trips around the world and often have had very little support - this team made it easy and they were always just a WhatsApp text or call away.

Looking at booking my next tour with them now...

Thanks!

The French Riviera is very beautiful and the weather is great!!
I loved my hotel in Hyeres. The Pontiere is amazing- a beautiful location

The first day we were so excited to be on the coast- rugged beauty and good biking trails.
Our self guided trip relied on the provided GPS and the use of the phone app for better navigation.
Pedralva stood out for its uniqueness but each location chosen for lodging had its charms.
It would be nice to know in advance when food was not available right at the lodging as we might have planned beforehand for that.
We were lucky to avoid rain but did find lots of puddles on a couple of days but really overall, everyone was happy with the route and very glad we went.

The trip was beautiful, unforgettable! We loved the trails along the beaches and forests. Passing through small towns and alleys in old neighborhoods was welcoming. We were very well received in the excellent hotels and restaurants suggested. Walking through the cities we passed through was very pleasant. Taking raincoats was very important for the first day.

This was a fun and memorable tour with enough options to keep even fast cyclists (which my wife and I aren't) engaged and occupied beyond the daily pedal. And the Ride with GPS app supplied by the agency, with all the rides preloaded, removed the worry and stress of missing turns and taking wrong forks, with detailed instructions and maps serving as a backup. There was a bit of confusion about the dinner vouchers - we at first assumed, wrongly, that they covered drinks. Also, when one restaurant we had vouchers for us in Dresden turned out to be closed for renovations, we were told to walk thirty minutes to an affiliate restaurant - that refused to honor the vouchers. Despite this miscommunication, all ended well when the agency gave us new vouchers for our last dinner in Prague, which was as not in our contract. I would ride with this tour operator again for their prompt and courteous service, as well as for their outstanding planning and execution.

This is a great culinary tour where you learn how parmesan cheese, wines, and balsamic vinegar are made. The cycling was easy, but caution needed when entering busy cities. We recommend opting for the guided and really enjoyed this tour.

Great trip! Very well planned. Route app was excellent. Make sure to check hotel locations carefully. They are not always in the last town on the days itinerary.

We loved the trip. Lovely scenery and fascinating sites to see along the way. Accommodations were delightful and we stayed at some lovely old residences. Bikes went well and the GPX tracks made all the difference and we had no problem navigating along the various trails and roads. We so appreciated how responsive the local bike company was and if we had any queries we could send a message on WhatsApp and we received a reply straight away

The guides were great with their inside knowledge and fun stories. The food was outstanding.

Spectacular bucolic setting for a cycling trip. Lovely medieval towns, quiet country roads. Great food. Extra day canoeing Dordogne river and climbing the cliffs near BEYNAC a highlight

Warren and Esther from Galloway cycling made this trip one of the best we have had, definitely the best tour operators we’ve experienced. They truly will do anything they can to ensure the best possible holiday. This is a beautiful area of Scotland with few tourists. The cycling routes were beautiful and there were options to choose from each day. The towns of Castle Douglas and Kirkcudbright were charming and our accommodations at Douglas House and Selkirk Arms were very comfortable. When we finished the trip we just wanted to start it all over again!

Highly recommend this trip ! We rode this self guided tour on our recumbent bikes and loved the ride. The local partner, Sergio and his staff, was very accommodating and flexible so we could use our own bikes, thank you! At the end of the tour, We were about to get stuck with our bikes in Lisbon due to a train labor strike and massive power outage but Sergio saved the day and transported us back to Porto. All of Sergio's team were very helpful, friendly professionals. Thank you to them and the Tripsite crew for such an enjoyable, memorable vacation!

Great bike trip! Favorite city was middleberg! Be sure to enjoy the cheese in Gouda.

All of journey was gorgeous. in the beginning the routes are more steeps and when you reach Danúbio River the path is more flat. All of cities that you stay are super nice. Anyway, I loved all.

Overall, the tour was very pleasant, enjoyable, and I would recommend it. However, there are several aspects that could be improved to provide a more satisfying experience.

Communication regarding the difficulty of the tour:
The information provided by both the agency and the guide about the level of difficulty was insufficient and unclear. This led to some confusion and could have been handled better with a more detailed and accurate explanation.

Accommodations:
Some of the accommodations were too basic, particularly the bathrooms. Improving this aspect would make a big difference in the overall comfort of the trip.

Meals – Picnics:
While the picnics were well organized, certain details affected the overall quality—for example, the use of packaged and ultra-processed salad dressings instead of healthier and tastier options like good olive oil. The bread and coffee were also of poor quality, which detracted from the dining experience.

Conclusion:
By addressing these details—especially communication, accommodation quality, and food—the experience could be significantly enhanced. These are small but meaningful improvements that would have a great impact on customer satisfaction.

We really enjoyed this self guided tour. You are basically following the Danube or Donau, as the Germans refer to it, essentially downhill, making it fairly easy riding. The best part was riding with a group of curious friends. Poking our noses into things along the way and asking lots of questions made for a good travel experience. The bicycles we received were brand new and half of the group chose electric versions. All of the equipment worked well and the support team was responsive answering questions via cell along the way. We even got a first class detour around a road closure. Two vans transported us and our bicycles around a closed area along the river, thank you! There are a number of bicycle ferry crossings. This was really fun to load up the bikes and cross the river by boat. We also finished the trip on a short boat ride into Budapest. I would recommend this finish as you get to see all the bridges from the river coming into the city. Our accommodations were a good mix of private guest houses and hotels. Perhaps one suggestion, would be to have 2 nights in Vienna, since there is so much to see there. There is a lot to see in Budapest so we extended our visit there 3 more nights. Overall a very nice bike trip.

This was a challenging ride, not because of the hills or the ponds we had to get through but because of the rutted sand, rock and gravel surfaces we biked on. I suppose it might be easy mountain biking , but not easy biking. Memorable though and great guides.

My husband and I are not avid cyclists but we found the 7-Day Family Biking Tour rated “easy”, exactly that in terms of terrain and distances. The towns along this course are quaint and easy to navigate as a cyclist. The terrain in between towns and overnight stays were especially scenic and enjoyable!

Bike paths were very good and enjoyable. This was the first bike trip for me and I felt safe. The company was very responsive to our inquiries along the paths. The scenery was beautiful and the villages and hotels along the way were very good. Breakfast included in every stop was very helpful.

Great hotels, good e-bikes, beautiful views, very good planning.

We do self-guided and was a great experience.

Very recommended.

We had a wonderful time on this tour ,everthing went very smoothly the bikes were excellent but throughout our tour every aspect had been
carefully planned and orchestrated. We can highly recommend this spectacular introduction to Holland and many thanks to the owner who made us feel so cared for.

Truly Magical!

My wife and I over the years have done over a dozen self-paced bike tours with Tripsite and the Green Coast of Spain tour remains one of our favorites. We started with a little food tour of San Sebastian which is of course a stunning place to visit and easily added to the front of the tour. Oviedo is also easily added to the tour and well worth it. I recommend you watch Vicky Cristina Barcelona for the famous flight to Oviedo.

What makes this tour great.

1. Very few cars

First of all, in general, bikes and cars get along in Spain. Many more people bike in Spain and in general you will feel far safer biking there than in the U.S. You meander along the northern coast of Spain and have many spectacular views along the way. The tour of Altamira is also a must and happens early in the tour.

2. Off the Beaten Track

The towns you stay in are off the beaten track and give you a peak into life in Spain. You stay in smaller towns along this gorgeous coast and get to be part of daily life in Spain with few other American tourists. We found Santander quite interesting as well and it's not a city we had been to before. The tour ends in Gijon which was a very interesting city and it was a Friday night and the whole town was out and about.

3. The Food and the Cider

The last couple of days has you biking in the region of Asturias. This is the land of cider and they have Ciderias that specialize in you guessed it, cider. The whole way they drink it must be seen to be believed and it's recommended to give it all a try. Lots of great food to try here with seafood being a staple.

4. Biking on paths of the Camino De Santiago

We didn't expect to do big parts of the northern Camino but the tour has you riding on many of these paths and we were often alone biking on these beautiful paths along the coast. This was incredibly relaxing.

We found the rides very doable and we're in our later 50's. We loved this tour and highly recommend it.

The scenery and Guest houses were great! The only bad day was the first day, climbing a 2400 feet gain. The bikes were not up to the challenge, did not get us up some of the steeper inclines, so we had to push the heavy electric assist bikes up those hills, which was very difficult and very slow, so slow in fact that by the time we got to the listed places to eat, they were closed. We called the bike shop, when we got to the guest house, and had them bring out one new bike and one new better charger. I suggest that trip site find a new bike shop.

Three of us (two rooms) had a great trip through some incredibly beautiful landscapes. The bikes worked great (no issues with the batteries or anything else) and the ebikes were very handy for the very hilly countryside. The luggage got moved perfectly and the hotels were nice. Overall had a terrific trip!
