Europe

I wasn't sure I would be able to do this ride. But I had no problem at all. I used an e-bike and kept up the group and had a ball! Everyone on the ride was wonderful and fun to be with. If you aren't sure you might be up for a ride thru Spain, think again. Anyone can do it using an e-bike. I can't wait to do my next trip!! Hum, where shall I go?

VBT never disappoints. This was my 4th trip with VBT and it was fantastic. Our guides Oriol and Martin were outstanding. Loved the visit to the Dali Museum and came away with a new appreciation for his work. The landscapes were beautiful and the visit to the cider company was fun. The post trip in Mallorca was a pleasure.

This was our first VBT vacation and we have already registered for a second trip. Provence and the Alpilles is a beautiful region of France with abundant fruits, vegetables and other agriculture. The bicycle travel through the French countryside gives an up-close and personal travel experience.

Bike routes were beautiful and enjoyable! Loved the town of St. Remy and the location of our hotel. Really enjoyed Avignon and again, the location of the hotel made exploring the city very easy.

This was our first VBT vacation. We were very impressed with the planning, accommodations, and route. It was a wonderful experience to bike along country roads with guides who knew the area. The hotels were lovely and the meals were delicious. Everything was top-notch.

Portugal was our 11th VBT trip and 12th biking trip. It was the best or at least equal to our other great trips. The guides were the best ever and the hotels , especially the Farm House, were excellent. The biking was challenging at times but very good overall. We highly recommend the trip and very much want to return to Portugal. Great food, great wine and a beautiful country. We felt very safe on the roads and highways as Portugal drivers are very courteous to bikers. Absolutely nothing to complain about and as with all VBT trips, a great value.

This was such a great trip. Copenhagen was such a lovely city and perfect to discover by walking. Sweden was so beautiful and the biking was an exciting discovery each day. Bodhi and Philip were just wonderful as our guides - fun, professional and always helpful. We had never been to Scandinavia and this was such a lovely way to see it.

I have wanted to visit the Nordic countries since 1974 when I was an exchange student in Europe. Thank you, VBT, for finally making it an affordable destination! As always, the travel arrangements were seamless, the leaders were phenomenal, and the experience was second to none!

Our guides, Jeremy and Lucy, went above and beyond to make our trip fun and pleasurable even on the rainy days. Accommodations were excellent. Food was great, bicycle equipment was like new. A very memorable trip of cycling the Cotswolds.

Beautiful countryside, charming hotels and restaurants. The bicycling was more difficult than I expected, and the traffic was terrible.

This was one of our top VBT bike trips. The Alps are stunning and our routes immersed us in their beauty. The tranquil brown cows with the bells were always a pleasant surprise

The Switzerland and France tour was outstanding! Our guides, Jean-Marc and Eve, were knowledgeable and helpful, and the countryside was absolutely stunning. Although the extended forecast had called for thunderstorms, we had amazing weather every day of the tour - temps in the 80's and 90's. (Rain gear stayed stowed!) Highlights included taking the tram up to Mt. Blanc in Chamonix, cycling through beautiful Montreaux along Lake Geneva, and biking around Lake Annecy. Nearly all of the rides were on dedicated paved bike paths, which made things even more enjoyable. Hotels were great, even though a few didn't have air conditioning. The only down side was not being able to stay longer in Lyon at the end of the trip. Our bus pick-up time for the airport was 3:45 am. This trip was well worth the time and money spent. 5 stars!

The experience with VBT went beyond expectations as did the part of Greece where we cycled. The Peloponnesian Peninsula is a relatively undiscovered biking jewel, I enjoyed it far more than biking various Greek Islands. Accommodations were excellent and Greek food speaks for itself. VBT and the guides went out of their way in providing a 5 star experience. The bikes were new and top quality, the routes were varied and interesting. The guides bent over backwards to please us and provide a great biking as well as cultural experience.

This VBT trip does not disappoint! The attention to detail for every visit and experience was remarkable. I live in the mid-west and don't have many hills to train on so these rides were challenging for me, but doable and once I was done I felt very satisfied. The accommodations were all different and great in their own way. The guides were energetic and informative. I highly recommend this tour - it's a great way to see Greece!

This was my first trip to Europe and I am so happy that I went with VBT. They made everything easy and I felt very safe!! The hotels were wonderful. One overlooked a Roman ruin and the others overlooked a lake with wonderful scenery and very close to ferry transportation. The provided dinners and lunches had foods that the region was renowned and locally sourced. We had a variety of bike rides with scenery of mountains, lakes, small villages, archaeological sites, and glaciers. In between the bicycle rides we were transported in private ferries, busses, and train cars. The train ride to the Swiss Alps was awe inspiring and then we had time for a bike ride and site seeing in St Moritz. The guides, Roberto and Giovanni, were personable and knowledgeable. I think I am spoiled now and will be constantly comparing any future tour guides with their level of service. Finally, the scenery during the bike rides was often so beautiful, I would tear up. I highly recommend this tour.

The Lake Region had the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. The combination of lakes, mountains and valleys was breathtaking, every day of the trip. Our guides were unusually knowledgeable, kind and helpful. And the accommodations were luxurious.

Bikes Breakfasts,Hotels were all great. GPS worked well and VBT was there for assistance if needed.

We are always thrilled with our trips that we have taken with VBT.
