Austria

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

Our self-guided Danube bike tour was glorious from start to finish. The bikes were excellent. The prescribed routes were beautiful and easy to navigate. (About 50km/day was perfect.) Lodgings were sublime, lovely locations with amazing breakfasts. Two enthusiastic thumbs up. Thank you VBT!

Our trip was just wonderful. The scenery was the star of the show, but it was enriched by the cultural experiences, meals, thoughtful guides, little “surprises,” and congenial fellow travelers.

This was our first VBT tour and won't be our last. One of the best vacations we have taken.
