Bike Tour Reviews — 61 to 90 of 7078

The dinner time was my favorite time. Meeting and enjoying the atmosphere of everyone around me. The bike rides were wonderful. The sites of the towns and countryside were out of this world. Would love to book another biking experience. John M.

Getting to know the group member’s life and bike experiences. Wonderful life-living people. Learning the history of the Baltic countries with our very knowledgeable guide Romas and city tour guides

Our first e-bike self-guided tour, and it won't be our last! We have found out new favourite way to travel. The e-bikes made touring between the Umbrian hilltop towns a breeze for us at 63 yrs and 65 yrs. The GPS tracks were off the beaten path and Bluetoothed straight into my husband's hearing aids, which was an unexpected bonus. The local operators were helpful and available, although we had no problems at all. Any questions to Tripsite had quick and efficient replies. Thanks Tripsite!

The Catalonia area of Spain was beautiful to explore! The hotels were in great locations and we were happy with the rooms, even without upgrading our accommodation. The app (Ride with GPS) worked well, although there were a few directions that were mixed up - but it would alert you, and could easily get back on track. Most of the paths were good, although it did get a bit rocky towards the middle of the trip. Overall it resulted in getting 3 flat tires in total along our trip, so highly recommend being familiar with changing a bike tire! We weren’t crazy about the Loop Castelló d’Empúries part of the trip, although it was fine up to the city of Roses, the rest of the loop didn’t have much to see or explore. The last day of biking from Castelló d’Empúries - Figueres was mostly on the highway, but was fine as it was not a busy road. We were very pleased with the quality of the e-bikes and they were a comfortable ride. A good idea to use packing cubes to organize your belongings, as unpacking and packing up could be a bit of a challenge when you’re changing hotels everyday. The luggage transfer worked very smoothly, we had to have our luggage down to the lobby each day by 9 a.m. and they would be at our next destination when we arrived.

The itinerary was wonderful; we passed through several amazing cities, and the bike paths were very good.

The islands, historic towns and water were beautiful. As we had an extremely hot week, the best part of each day was swimming off the boat. They would anchor off shore and we could dive off and cool off!
We biked either in the morning or the afternoon so were on the boat for lunch every day. We felt the 4 course lunch was a bit much especially if we were biking or swimming afterwards. Then most evenings we were on our own for dinner which meant we didn't get to socialize with the whole group so often. We would just find a restaurant in the local village but we weren't that hungry after a huge lunch.

Impossible to choose a favorite part...it was all so great !!

Croatia and the Islands are beautiful, the Boat and Bike Trip was Great! The only "gaps" were Transfers from and to Airports before the trip, and after the trip.

Good cycling route to start with between to great cities! Easy mostly off road cycle paths in parts along Danube but mainly via countryside, small villages, sunflower fields. Heatwave in early August was not part of plan so early starts and plenty of water! Sandi was excellent support. Comfortable bikes and great phone app to help stay on route! Nice hotels too nesf routes. We personally loved Gyor and Eztegorm. Would use Tripsite again. Good arrangements, good support and info when we were preplanning trip.

The staff on the riverboat were so friendly and worked so hard. We enjoyed the daily biking on the Danube. We also thought that the drinks were reasonable priced.

The scenery and bicycle paths are absolutely amazing. Most of the route is on paved dedicated bike paths. The shuttle on the second riding day worked out great and skipped a lot of climbing. Our party of eight seniors all rented e-bikes, which were comfortable and in excellent condition. All of the towns had a good selection of restaurants for dinners.

Our only complaint is the lack of air conditioning in several of the hotels. Although we started our tour the second week in September it was quite warm and only one of the hotels (Hotel Gruberhof in Meran) had working AC. Fortunately we stayed in that hotel for two nights. The other hotels were on busy streets, making it difficult to sleep with the window either open or closed. Perhaps starting the tour in October would be a good idea.

The overall experience was enhanced by the friendly professional staff. The service on board was exceptional all requirements were quickly handled.

This trip was a great mix of biking, relaxation, sightseeing and enjoying good food! Highly recommend!

Beautiful scenery and well organized. Going thru the small towns was lovely. Learning the history of the area was nice. Sometimes it was hard to know where to park bikes in small villages .

Your subcontractors Esther and Warren made the trip all worth while. Everything was done excellently. Cheers to them.

Francois was an excellent cycling guide. E-bikes were quite comfortable

The actual tour itself was great, but the food on the barge was not the greatest. Repetitive breakfast buffet in which we had to make our lunches with and then used as an appetizer for dinner. Too many coldcuts. The staff was great and the boat was clean. Another suggestion is to make sure all the bikes are functioning before sending people out on them. I had a gear issue and so did another member. Another passenger had his brakes seize.

The staff was exceptional. The routes were varied in length and scenery. Would have liked to dock closer to towns.

I liked much knowing new people, what I suggest for next customer is to take the e bike, so you enjoy better the ride.

Best trip ever. The boat and food were exceptional. The bike routes were scenic. Heike the tour director connected with everyone and available for any questions. Great time!

Boat Service Staff was very good, and Bike Tour Guide was very good. Food was fair and needs improvement, need variety on lunches, and dinner food and drinks should have been Dutch inspired. Cycling bikes need better maintenance preparation before each group.

The quality of the food, accommodations, and service plus the joy of riding and vacationing with 22 new friends.

The only big challenge was the exhaust fumes around and inside the barge once we started going through the locks.

The ship and crew were fantastic. The food was very good . How ever the daily breefings were not very clear about what to visit on the way. Not many cafés open in the morning coffee break. But a good time was had by all

The trip was excellent. The cycling was just the right amount each day with beautiful scenery along the way. The food was delicious and plentiful. The staff was superb - very professional and helpful. We had an awesome time!

Please suggest to the boat operator to supply free unlimited drinking water.

Amazing opportunities to make the world come alive, ride safely with excellent local guides and make new friends.

The biking! Also touring some of the historical places and swimming off the boat in the Aegean Sea.

The Bellezza was impressive and immaculately maintained and loved by the lovely Captain and crew. There was space for everyone looking for a bit of me/us time; the bikes and rides were fabulous and well organised, thanks to Dominic & Martina; we loved the swim stops (boat needs a few more noodles); the meals were terrific; the jacuzzi was great; we had a great time thank you.

The reason I didn't give a two-star is because the customer service of Tripsite was very responsive and I liked them. The service on boat Primadonna was okay or a thumb down. My husband and I caught a flu on the way flying to Germany so we asked to sit away from other passengers, the waiter did arrange that but then he often forgot to serve us (sigh). Because of the water level was low so they changed itinerary so many times, I could understand but was not pleased. The bus tour in Vienna was not impressed. The communication on boat was mainly in German and the English briefings were not communicated well. If they want more American customers, they should sharpen up their staff's English.

Nice sized cabin, entire crew was attentive and friendly. Great tasting, ethnic food.
