Nick and Roman made the trip so special. They were there to meet our every need and gave us of themselves. The biking is superlative and the lodging very unique and memorable

Excellent in every respect!
This tour is excellent. The biking routes are interesting and offer challenge for all levels, with the option of a ride in the van always there for bikers who want to avoid some hills or just need a rest. The scenery is spectacular. The tour has a perfect combination of ride days and tour days. Our trip leaders were bright, personable, competent and a fun, integral part of the group. The hotels, food, and cultural events tied it all together. I highly recommend this tour. I want to go back tomorrow!

New Douro Valley Bike/Boat Tour
What an amazing trip! The Douro Valley was nothing short of magical. Cannot recommend this trip highly enough. The bike-boat experience was phenomenal (Emerald Cruises was top notch) and the Portuguese VBT leaders and entire boat crew made it an unforgettable experience. The exposure to the historical culture and centuries-old commerce along the Douro were a highlight. Bravo VBT

Well done!
Excellent support of Manuel/ David. Timo was a hoot. Only one day was over planned. Recommend separate events ( hieroglyphics visit)

Not Just About Cycling
This trip is not just cycling. The olive farm tour, the winery tour, and the salt production tour provided the opportunity to learn about Mallorca. The narrow roads in Mallorca are like scenic bike paths in the US, and there are not many cars. The Ride with GPS app had excellent instructions, so I could feel comfortable riding on my own without worrying about directions (although for the most part I rode with our group). And our 3 tour leaders were awesome!

What a Great Tour!
We thoroughly enjoyed our first VBT experience. The tour route was very well laid out and we cannot not say enough about how impressive our tour leaders, David and Frederico, both of whom are natives of Portugal. Kudos to VBT for the way they planned and conducted our tour!

Trip of a life time
Amazing trip! VBT booked this for us, a group of 12 and it could not have been better. The communication pre trip was great, the details once we arrived were perfect, our local hosts were great to work with, although we didn't really need them for much. The GPS routes were easy to follow, the points of interest that were noted were great as well. The bikes seemed almost new and everyone's was what they reserved. Each hotel was better than the next and the first one in Girona set the bar pretty high. The hotel staff was knowledgeable about the details of our trip and our luggage drop off needs each morning. Truly a trip of a life time and VBT really made it easy. Highly recommend this route as well.

Wonderful Rides through Costa Brava
We recently returned from our self-guided biking trip through Spain and enjoyed a truly memorable experience. VBT delivered on all aspects of lodging, bikes, self-guided app, and pre-trip planning. Our in-country hosts were readily available and willing to help with minor adjustments mid-trip. The routes were predominantly local road biking routes with minimal car traffic to worry about while riding. This was our first VBT trip and we would be more than happy to explore another area of the world with VBT!

You have to do this!
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?

Terrific diverstiy of scenery and cultural sights.
Our 7th trip and this might be tops, but they are all so good. This trip is easy and we are so glad we did not order eBikes (we are 79 and 82). Our guides were terrific and the trip is planned so there is time for art (Dali two places),Greek and Roman ruins, swimming in the Mediterranean Sea, walking the coast, seeing the Costa Brava from the sea, and exploring the old city of Girona as well as an introduction to Barcelona, where we stayed on for a week in an apartment. Hotels were great too.
