This tour is well planned and offers a intetestung cross section of the Costa Brava And inland areas. We chose th spend an extra night in two of the stops which enabled us to take those areas in instead of just pass through. Really enjoyed that.

Being the Madian voyage with the crew was a fabulous experience. Great guides, amazing food and wonderful experiences.

Thoroughly enjoyed our "boat & barge" trip on the Duoro. We were a group of 11 (family & friends) and enjoyed the time on both the boat and shore. Aside from our 6 cycling days, we were offered a walking tour of Porto, dinner at a winery and a port company tour and tasting. Cycling was enjoyable and gave us a good overview of the countryside, small villages and local customs. Our cycling guides, Horacio and Kevin were excellent! They were informative, supportive and patient in dealing with 16 riders of varying abilities and comfort levels.
Most of our meals were onboard and they were great - lots of options for every course and meal. Service staff were friendly and accommodating.
Cabins were comfortable & well appointed and housekeeping services were wonderful.

The scenery was spectacular and there is so much history to hear about and experience

We had a great week with lots of delicious local foods and wines. Our guides did a great job facilitating everything and provided good information. The accommodations we memorable, especially the two farms where we did cooking classes. The biking was very manageable with the high quality e-bikes. Lots of local sites and history food and wines!

Albania is beautiful! The route is amazing and challenging but the guide was very unprofessional. Hence the reason for only 2 stars.

The terrain made this a difficult and technical ride. The word ‘easy’ should not be included in the description.
Also I thought the group size, 21, was too big. It is listed as an e-bike tour but 6 people elected to ride regular bikes, which caused problems on the steep uphill portions.
Except for Porto, the hotels were very nice but we didn’t get much time to enjoy them. There were too many stops during the day but mainly for snacks (provided), rarely did we stop for an actual lunch.

excellent trip - hotels - eletric bike - routes - equipaments - we had lucky only sunny days. april 2026

On the whole I enjoyed this trip but I do not recommend e-bikes for novice riders or anyone not in good physical shape. The e-bikes were certainly high quality but very heavy and difficult to manage in the crowded cities. The route is flat and I believe a regular bike would have been just fine. The guides, crew, staff, scenery, cities, events and accommodations were all stellar! The meals were top notch-everything was wonderful but again, I feel there needs to be something to warn people that heavy e-bikes are not for everybody. I ride an e-bike at home but it’s half the weight of the ones used by the touring company.

Bike rides led by our guides were terrific. Even soaked to the skin on the one rainy day was memorable. The food was plentiful and suppers were terrifically tasteful and delicious. Crew was very sociable and knowledgeable.

It was everything Tripsite said it would be. We were very happy with our tour guide, Rene, who was very involved in keeping track of everyone. All the advance information Tripsite provided about the GPS tracks, country biking laws, weather, etc was very helpful. The ship, De Holland, was clean and well run, helpful staff, and the captain had a playful attitude. However, many of us got tired of the same cold cut sandwich fixings for lunch. We got rained on at least 3 days, and it was colder than usual, so be prepared with good rain gear.

Beautiful cities, villages and swans along the Danube. Made a lot new friends, especially our three Denmark table mates at table7. We might visit each other in the future.

Stopping at the cheese farm was amazing! Even though it was cold, breezy & occasionally rainy, if you have the correct gear you're good. Tim & Hetty were amazing guides. Always compassionate & ready to change course if needed.Barge was lovely. Snacks awaiting our return each day. All the staff were kind & helpful.

The IRIS barge was great as was the crew. Couldn’t have been more supportive or helpful. I would Not call this a tulip tour-almost all tulips were dead headed. Tulip tours need to end two weeks prior to our tour. We did not see the massive fields of tulips, we did not ride along roads filled town tulips - we were post season.

Nice enjoyable trip. The crew was knowledgable, friendly and helpful. Beautiful sites to see. Con's... BRING YOUR OWN WATER! you get one .5 L bottle a day for free, and free water with breakfast. Make sure and don't go cheap with a lower level cabin. The room was very warm and their air conditioner didn't really work. It would have been ok to be upstairs where you could open a window and get fresh air.

Exceeded all our expectations except one. The guides were extraordinary; knowledgeable, kind and helpful in every way. The rides were the right combination of challenging but doable at every level and filled with so many interesting and fun stops. The activities were terrific including beer tasting, cheese, culture and history as well as special treats and events all included e.g pancake lunch, admission fees to special places and the windmill tour. The boat staff could not have been more delightful and accommodating and the cook’s meals and the wine pairing were superb. The captain too was such an interesting, happy person, making the travel on the canal that much more fun. Everyone seemed to do their job with passion and joy sharing that with the passengers.
The only criticism is that we more notice should have been given of the “State of the Tulips”. We were not aware that all the fields would be trimmed. But the Keukenhof gardens were spectacular. I highly recommend this trip

The bike rides and the scenery. Sorry to have missed Deventer but got to see a bit of Nijmegen instead
