Austria

Easy rides, great hotels, beautiful scenery. Nice equipment.

We did the self-guided Germany and Austria tour and loved being able to be independent and set our own schedule. You definitely need to be a little adventurous and confident using the Ride with GPS app. Don’t feel like you have to adhere to the routing. We loved going off course if we saw something across the River that we wanted to explore. Each hotel was very welcoming as soon as we rode in and they all had bike parking set aside. Don’t expect to see your VBT rep each day unless you need them. Our rep was always available and responsive via text. If you feel like you need daily contact or like meeting new people, you might be better off with a VBT guided tour. We loved our adventure and can’t wait to do another one! #justgo

This was a fabulous trip through beautiful countryside and famous cities. It was a combination of cruising, biking, and history.

We had problems getting in touch with Allianz when we needed to change our arrival time in Budapest due to a flight delay. The cruise and biking were wonderful.

Nicely paced, well thought out itinerary. Easy paths with GPS guidance, though needed to pay attention closely as it was too easy to get off the designated trail though very obvious pretty quickly from GPS if you make a wrong turn. Nice to have a floating hotel so you were not packing and unpacking. Enough time for meals and breaks with great van/trip support. Ebike option was greatly appreciated

This is much, much more a River cruise than biking

The mountains with new snow, the rivers with the bluish tint from glacier melt, the robin egg blue of the lakes, and the people we cycled with and met in Slovenia, Italy and Austria made this trip a memory for a lifetime.

From start to finish I enjoyed the locale, the scenery , the food and friendly people. The biking was fun and our guides were great ambassadors for their area.
