Germany Tour Reviews — 31 to 60 of 1690

This is my 5th bike & barge vacation and by far the best. Koen and Christina have an exquisite ship. Every detail has been addressed with function and thought.

The food was perfect. Cabin was so comfortable. I really appreciated every detail.

But the best part was the crew on the merlijn. Thomas the guide knew the ins and outs of the villages. He was able to direct my daughter to a great bakery in each village. Cat made sure we were taken care of in the galley. Always with a big smile. It was amazing how quickly he knew everyone’s name.

Each day we had enought stops to make the ride easy on the tosh. Espresso stop, lunch stop, afternoon stop and just a few get the blood back stops.

Rising along the Main river was great. The paths along the river were pleasant. Only a couple times were we on roads with cars. Luckly minimal cars.

I would do this trip again in a heartbeat!

We had an excellent time on the tour. The sites we great, biking path was paved, food and the care on the Iris was excellent.
Biking on the city bridges were not always easy. A little scary with the traffic. Loved the e-bike. Would definitely go on another bike and barge trip.

My husband and I loved every minute of this bike and barge trip with Tripsite. The Swiss Crown is a beautiful ship equipped with lovely spacious rooms, lovely dining room and seating area and hot tub on the top level. The meals surpassed our expectations! From surf and turf to local cuisine. Each day the crew greeted us and looked after everything from room cleaning, expert dining experience, loading and unloading our bikes, presenting each day's travel suggestions, and offering fun nightly activities. Seriously, could not have been better. We have travelled extensively but this is the first time we did a bike and barge, and it won't be the last. We met wonderful people and experienced the countryside in a whole different way than by car or bus. It is a unique experience.

Do many things, the biking was amazing, the views and infrastructure and routes were exceptional. The staff was phenomenal and the chef made the best food from all other river cruises. We enjoyed the evening entertainment alot.

I loved this tour. The biking was easy, beautiful, and enough exercise that I felt I could eat lots of the delicious food onboard. The workers on board were helpful and friendly and they seemed to honestly enjoy their job and the visitors onboard.

The first day and last day of biking were beautiful. The route the other days weren’t as nice.
The boat staff were wonderful and the food was delicious.
Only downside was having to be on the boat for a certain time as the boat moved all night long. I prefer the tours when the boat moves as we bike and stays in port all night. Nice for after dinner walk in towns.

Meeting people from around the world on the boat. Also the staff on the boat was fantastic very accommodating and helpful.

Beautiful boat lobby and cabins. Rooftop deserves more time spent there. Front bar has lovely views. River tour of Budapest nightlights is fabulous. Bikes are excellent . 3/6 days we had to dock late because another boat was in our spot? Therefore we rarely had time to sightsee or make cafe’ stops during our bike days. I don’t understand this. Late September is perhaps not the best time for this tour?

Biking and meeting nice people.great food and staff. Very clean as well.

Our family had an unforgettable experience cycling from Wurzburg to Füssen, covering around 450 km along the stunning Romantic Straße. Each day was a new adventure, filled with charming towns, fairytale castles, rolling vineyards, and warm, welcoming locals who made the journey even more special.
One of the highlights was our pre-booked Night Watchman’s Tour in Rothenburg ob der Tauber, a magical and entertaining way to explore the town’s medieval history. We also visited many fascinating museums along the route which became some of our favorite moments, offering rich cultural insights.
We loved stopping at local markets to enjoy delicious wine, sausages, and cheese for lunch. A surprise gem was discovering a serene mineral pool where we could relax and swim, such a treat after a day of riding!
The bikes provided were top-notch, handling every terrain with ease and comfort. Tripsite took care of all the logistics, hotel bookings, luggage transfers so we could focus entirely on enjoying the ride. With perfect weather and great company, the trip was smooth, stress-free, and full of joy!
We wholeheartedly recommend Tripsite for anyone planning a cycling adventure. Their exceptional organization and attention to detail make it easy to book a scenic, stress-free, and unforgettable family journey through Germany.

Guides were great. Trip was very educational. Side tours were great even in the rain. Would to have more time to spend in each city. One day is just not enough to enjoy the local flavors.

This is an excellent bike and barge. The Vivienne was a beautiful boat with excellent staff. The schedule is well laid out, allowed time to enjoy the biking and scenery. The navigation app worked really well but take a phone holder for your bike so you can see the map. I have Bluetooth hearing aids so the directions were also provided by audio which was very helpful. That city bus tours were ok, if you are a city traveller you could have navigated both Budapest and Vienna on your own.
The cruise director has lots of information and will answer your questions…. If in doubt ask questions.
The food was amazing … you will not go hungry.

I loved everything about the trip except the hot tub was not very hot and the steam shower wasn't working. The food was presented so beautifully and staff were professional and lovely. The 2 night of karaoke and 70 and 80's night were good tobinteractvwith other guests.

This whole trip was unforgettable—grin-on-your-face-for-days kind of unforgettable. Cycling past vineyards and riverside villages, pedaling at an easy pace, drifting through villages with their pale stone churches, building lasting memories. And then rolling back onto the boat at day’s end to be welcomed with coffee, sweets, and later a feast shared with fellow riders. I am still grinning!

There are so many choices out there when planning a bike and barge. I looked at numerous options and narrowed it down to two companies. I emailed the two companies and Tripsite responded immediately with a list of questions and suggestions. With a Trip Site Tour Specialist’s help (shout out to Claudia), we selected the bike/boat trip we just completed. Our Trip Site Tour Specialist answered our many questions as our group from Canada grew to being 17 individuals. Most of the Tour Specialist’s help was needed during the booking and payment process but even just prior to the trip, we had a couple of questions and Tripsite was just as committed to customer service at that point. Our experience from the planning to the actual trip was phenomenal. We were treated like royalty during the entire cruise. The rooms, food, entertainment, bike support….all exceeded our expectations. We will be repeat customers…many thanks to Tripsite.

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!

This was our 2nd self-guided bike tour in Europe. It was a little different than our first where everyone leaving from our hotel was on the same schedule. With this company, you are basically customizing your tour by chosing to stay extra nights in some cities. The route chosen by the local company was qood. We had a variety of small villages and towns, crop fields and forrests. Lodging in the Category B hotels was good to excellent. The cycle paths were very good most of the time with little mixing with cars. We did this in Sept and it seemed alot of restaurants/cafes along the route were closed, so you might bring a lunch with you. The bikes were good, but do not have mirrors, which I had inquired ahead about. We did bring our own.

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.

The scenery on this tour was amazing. The Danube River valley is quite picturesque! The bike trails were awesome.

The staff aboard the boat, including Julia as tour director were excellent and attentive to every need and did everything they could to make the trip excellent. Biking through centuries-old towns and the vineyards made for great memories.

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.

The scenery was beautiful, vineyards, quaint little villages and each day was different. Loved staying on the boat, it was intimate and the tour group quickly became friends. We had a fantastic crew, excellent food, couldn’t have imagined anything better!

The country side that we cycled through.
Excellent bikes and great navigation system.

Navigating through the backroads and pathways, stopping in small towns for coffee and bier. Charming landscapes, interesting canals and features and our floating hotel always waiting for us at the end of the day. Norbert our cycle tour host was excellent!

The caring staff, beautiful countryside and incredible sights made this bucket list trip awesome! The crew felt like family by the end of the trip and the biking was really fun rain or shine!

What a lovely tour. Everything was well organized, the staff great, food tasty, accommodations comfortable and the e-bikes a dream. I would highly recommend to friends and family.

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!

Staff was amazing, wanted to help and please you al the time. Food was good. Meat portions could have been a bit bigger since we need lot’s of protein to bike. We need non guided and I would not do that again, missed the knowledge of the area that a guide provides.

I would strongly recommend taking the guided tour as opposed to non guided. The app to use is very average and doesn’t give you any information along the ride.

The trip was amazing. The crew was very professional and friendly. They did a great job of looking after us.
