5 Star Bike Tour Reviews — 31 to 60 of 4730

Awesome tour of the Dalmatian Coast plus some biking! We loved the gentle rides, the boat was fantastic and the crew was fun and knowledgeable. We live Ana and Tara. The bikes were well maintained.

Fantastic accommodations! Well planned and executed trip. Great bikes, amazing scenery and reasonable distances for biking. Roads had little traffic and we rode on a variety of different paths. Highly recommended!

The trip was great! The itinerary was slightly changed due to weather. However, we were able to cycle everyday except one. The food on the boat was excellent and several traditional dishes were served. The cycling guides were friendly and took time to learn about each of the passenger.

Loved riding through the country side, so pretty & green. One of my favorite things was stopping at the strawberry vending machine. Our guides were wonderful and I was so happy they had extra e-bikes on the boat as we had a couple of folks that struggled in the rain and wind the first couple of days and they, and the rest of us too, enjoyed the remainder of the trip not riding 6mph. We had some rain everyday but looking back I think it was better than having full sun the entire time.

Being on bike paths going through the countryside was a highlight. Tour guides were terrific, and we were very impressed with how the whole barge team worked together on all aspects of the trip.

We had a great crew, they worked tirelessly to ensure everything flowed smoothly. Our guide Miko went above and beyond to make sure everyone was taken care of. His knowledge of the Netherlands and Belgium made the trip even more enjoyable. I would have liked a little warmer and drier weather, but it did warm up in the latter half of the trip.

Awesome trip. Really enjoyed biking along the Portuguese coast.
We had 6 on our trip, 3 e-bikers and 3 human powered bikes. The human powered bikers were able to keep pace with the e-bikes except for the steep hills. It turns out that the cobblestone streets and dirt trails are self limiting on the speed of e-bikes.

We had no previous experience with a bike tour. We really appreciated the guided aspect of this tour and Sergio and Pedro were excellent guides. We chose the e-bikes because of the flexibility it provided to make our riding as easy or as difficult as we wanted. We recognized that some in our group chose regular bikes and adjusted our riding on the steep inclines knowing it would take them longer to get to the rest stop and cheered them on as we waited for them. The scenery is so stunning and made ride that much more enjoyable. All the hotels were excellent and the food was all wonderful. Each city we stopped in was beautiful. The only suggestion we would make is to make less stops along the Camino and get to the hotel around 3pm each day. That way, even if the rooms are not ready people can can go have lunch and then return to check in and relax before dinner and site seeing.

I totally enjoyed our trip. The biking was wonderful and I appreciate Leslie taking time to brief us before each ride, it was so helpful.

We enjoyed learning about the culture and history of the areas we visited. Our guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

For the record, we are very skilled cyclists who do not use E bikes. We have been doing tours with the company Tripsite for over 20 years all over the world. We are not competitive cycle racers. We are very experienced Bicycle tourists. This Tenerife tour features very challenging and very picturesque cycling on literally, World Class, cycling training routes frequented by the pros. Because of the elevation profiles, the clean air and excellent hydration and nutrition options; we fully understand why they come here. The automobiles treat the cyclists with regard because of legal ramifications in this country. Yet, there are occasional fatalities just because high speed cycling is extremely dangerous for cars and bikers. This is not for the occasional, flat land only, recreational cyclist. It’s tough and beautiful too. We loved every hotel with each, their own, unique characteristics, whether it was in a more quiet part of town with great bus service or if it was in the stunning national Park. Many of these lodgings were associated with excellent dining options up to the Michelin level. The local operator provides high Performance Bikes, which are necessary for the steep grades of long ascent and descent, as well as wind, altitude and elevation challenges. The expert services support and recommendations from the logistical tour operators to the bike shop mechanics and each hotel reception were some of the best we’ve ever experienced. We loved that the hiking tour guide, Sandra, could facilitate climbing local mountains or give cultural and nature based tours. Likewise, the cycling company can provide cycling performance training as well as touring Bicycle logistics and not only on Tenerife, but on other Canary Islands as well. We admit that this trip did cost more than expected, but one must consider the long distances in the logistics between Hotels and the quality of everything provided. The company Tripsite does offer wonderful options at all levels of price point and challenge and we certainly appreciate working with them for so many years.
We were absolutely thrilled with the trip.

History of medieval towns and ways of life. The boat, it's crew and it's accommodation were of a very high standard. We will do more of these combined sailing and biking trips, for sure!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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

Service was great. The crew was friendly, professional and caring. The food was very good and plentiful. The bikes were great and while our weather was not 100%, the biking was good. Lots of extra tours. I would recommend the Iris and their tours to everyone.

A great crew/team on the Iris leaves us with very high expectations for future bike/barge trips.
The food was great and the bikes were perfect.
We loved the back roads and bike paths chosen for our rides.

It was a great trip all around despite less than perfect weather. The Lena Maria is very comfortable and our captain & crew were wonderful. The chef always had very tasty meals and our guides Karin & Rianne were fabulous. Fun, funny and always ready to engage.

The Food, the crew, bike leaders and our fellow riders were Fun

Riding along the beautiful vineyards of the Mosel river, with the ease of an electric bike, knowing that all our meals and a place to stay (on the Olympia boat) for the next week was all arranged was such a wonderful experience. The boat staff and guide were all helpful and worked so hard to make sure all the guests had a great experience. The, meals were great and served with care. It was nice to be able to pack a lunch every day. The cabin was more spacious than expected. Great to have our own bathroom as well. Everything about the trip exceeded our expectations. We really enjoyed this trip!

We had a great time on this trip – there were six of us – all riding electric bikes – we were all impressed with the quality of the bikes and there were no breakdowns or flats! The route took us up the scenic coastline and then inland through fields of green littered with baby lambs, ducklings and goslings, calves and colts! It was spring time in Holland! Most of the route is on bike paths, is completely flat, and has beautiful scenery.

We opted for Category A accommodations and all the hotels were great with delicious breakfasts. The luggage transfer was smooth each day and was always there before we arrived. The Guido app got us right to our hotels very day with the exception of a couple of detours where Google Maps helped out. The logistics of this tour were excellent.

I have taken five tours through Tripsite and once again I was very impressed with the partner company chosen and tour provided. Would definitely recommend this tour to others considering biking in the Netherlands.

We loved our time on this tour – the Umbria scenery was beautiful and all three towns have a different character that made exploring them interesting. All of our hotels were lovely and had great breakfasts. The various dinners, wine tastings and cooking class were first-class and we really enjoyed the culinary part of this trip. – the wine tasting dinner at Enoteco Properzio in Spello was a highlight. We found the walks to be as described – definitely some hills involved but the views were worth the effort. Super liked the app that provided not only all of the walking directions but also all the information for the hotels and dinners/wine tastings. Every aspect of this tour went off without a hitch – the logistics were great. Would definitely recommend this tour.

The Old Cities were fabulous as well as the National Park.
Mostly, we enjoyed the activities and how we were busy all day. The food on the boat and the crew are commendable.
We used regular touring bikes where the overall majority of tourers had peddled assist. Some of the hills were challenging but we enjoyed the exercise and the group waited for us at the top of the hill. Unless you are in good physical condition, suggest peddle assist. It was great to meet folks from US (all over), Canada and Europe (Germany, Austria, Switzerland)
