Hungary

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

Our VBT guides and biking experience was wonderful. I would have no hesitation to book with VBT again. The river cruise added another dimension to the trip which had positives and negatives but I would not do the cruise part again, especially in this time of Covid. The positive thing about the river cruise is that you can leave your things in one room for most of the trip. The negative thing was that you were exposed to many more people on the cruise. Ventilation on the boat just isn't adequate to protect people. Masks were required except at meals but as dinners typically lasted 2 hours, this was a big risk. I got Covid near the end of the trip along with at least 6 others of the 23 bikers - in two cases this kept them from returning home as a negative test was needed to re-enter the U.S at that time. So.. yes to VBT biking, no to river cruising, at least for us.
