Our guys were awesome as well as the crew. They really made the trip enjoyable. Also I really like the E bikes on this trip.

The boat/bike trip was great, but we had great weather which makes a huge difference. The boat was fun, the boat crew were great. Captain Bob was excellent. The service crew was very good. The breakfasts got a little repetitive, but were good. Dinners were also very good…desserts were also basically the same every night, but good. The biking tours with Jordy and Pim were great and they would go above and beyond offering walking tours in the evenings. There were some confusing communications from tripsite that the boat would in fact only accept Euros for the bar bill, but Swedish and Danish money were accepted as well. This confusion cost us a bit in exchange fees that we could have avoided. And on tipping, we stuck with the 5-7% recommendation in Tripsite documentation, but the messaging from the boat staff was kinda higher and confusing. All in all, a wonderful trip.

We've done a few, this wasn't our favorite. The guides and the staff were lovely. Aside from the island of Ven we weren't too impressed with a lot of the scenic routes. I feel bad saying this but if they're really looking to make a better experience, the food could use some improving. The soups were wonderful, desserts too. My husband doesn't eat fish, he noted that, but no options available, breakfast after 8 days was unappealing. The rooms could use a little air fresheners too. It smelled quite moldy. The staff was lovely though. We will book again.

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.

The past few bike and boat trips we did there was a city tour of wherever we stopped, we learned about the country we were in and the food was better. Eric’s bike pace was also super fast, felt like I was peddling my heart out to keep up after I stopped to take a picture.

Cool ship but the rooms are very small. What was missing on the trip were stops along the ride to tour various historic building or how something in Sweden or Denmark are made, Events like wine tasting. We rode from point A to point B and thought the scenery was great but I like to learn the history of the places with stops along the way to take tours.

This trip was a great experience! This was not a luxury tour, but it was a tour for those of us who like a little adventure and to feel like a part of the host country. The slower pace of the tour allows one to really experience the culture and lifestyle of Norway and Sweden. This is a trip for people who are ok with last minute changes to the itinerary, weather unpredictability and not always knowing what will happen next!

The Denmark and Sweden coastlines were fabulous. Because of heavy winds we did very little sailing - which was disappointing. The rooms were very small compared to other trips I have taken. The bathroom had a very musky smell. The tour guides were friendly and helpful. However when Eric led he frequently got 50+ meters ahead of the group and didn’t look back. Very odd.

Although we enjoyed beautiful weather and wonderful crew , the ship was very uncomfortable - with small berths and horrible bedding . Out of 30 occupants 10 had norivirus and there was not enough cleaning supplies to disinfect and keep everyone healthy . This was our third trip with you and our least favorite .

I enjoyed the Island of Ven the most. Additionally I enjoyed the ride at Helsingborg and some of the seaside villages. The weather on this trip was rough. The 35 mph wind and rain had a "feel like" temperature of 35 degrees- 45 degrees. I had appropriate clothing for this journey but had I know the weather would be those conditions I would not have booked it. Along some other routes the scenery was not nearly as interesting as other places I have been in terms of countryside. This was my first bike and barge trip and I don't think I would book another. The crew were kind and did a great job. I enjoyed both guides and the hospitality staff. I cannot blame the weather on them or the variability of the scenery.

Difficulty wasn't an issue with e-bikes and I appreciated the grade-separated bike lanes.

The boat itself and the sailing day is most memorable. The crew created a participating atmosphere. Chef Alex spoiled us with wonderful meals. Bike Guides Frans and Jens gave us, despite the pelting rain, fun interesting tours.

This was our 5th Bike/Boat tour, and the weather on this trip was the most challenging, ever. Even at the end of May, the winds from the coast make the 'feels like' temps as low as 34 in the morning. We also had rain almost every day, but if you take the right waterproof/windproof gear with thermals, its tolerable. The scenery on this trip is lovely, but in our opinion, not nearly as nice at the Netherlands or Danube tours. Lots of open field/farm land and less villages. Only had evening city walks in 2 places, which was disappointing. Fellow passengers were well-travelled and friendly seasoned cyclists. Will review the "Atlantis" boat separately

The riding was fabulous. The routes were challenging, yet doable for me (on e-bike,) and the towns and views were just breathtaking. My husband is a strong rider, but opted for an ebike, and enjoyed challenging himself by keeping it at the lowest level.

The whole trip was an adventure! The crew and the guides were great and worked hard every day loading all the bikes on the dinghies as well as keeping us all safe during transport. The bikes and biking was great! The scenery was spectacular! At the end of the day when we returned to the ship we were happy to celebrate with a refreshing swim in the sea followed by a drink from the bar. The guests were an international group . Despite language barriers we mixed well and enjoyed the diversity leaving the ship promising to stay in contact. Great memories!

I have booked 4 trips with Tripsite. Two others on boats and this was my favorite. Sailing the boat was really fun. The crew and guides top notch. The food was the best yet. It's always great to mingle with people from all over the globe and find out we are all the same.
