Spain

Best Bike Trip Ever!

This was a perfect trip...Seamless. My 8th VBT bicycling trip and all were good but this one was exceptional because our leaders were exceptional. Great biking, great cultural events and guided tours, wonderful food, very cohesive group of 22 guests who really liked each other every single day. Bravo Javi and Andrea..I hope we meet again!

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?

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!

Lovely Spain & Portugal Trip

We loved this trip! Beautiful and varied biking routes; knowledgeable, competent and engaging guides, top-notch hotels, delicious food and interesting cultural activities. I wish I could do it all over again!

June '23 VBT ride through Costa Brava-

We loved our self guided tour around Costa Brava. Accomodations were very nice. We especially liked the 1600's Farmhouse with the outstanding restaurant. The rides were very pleasant and vehicles were very respectful of cyclists. All the people we encountered were very kind and helpful. .

A Perfect Area for Biking

This part of Spain seems to be designed for biking with many small country roads and bike paths. Even the long climb on the first day was gentle and easy (on an E-Bike!). An occasional stint on a busier road brought us to another idyllic country road. The hotel accommodations were great. Nice people, fascinating medieval villages, orchards, fields. I love than Spain has a law requiring motorists to leave 1.5 meters when passing a bike.

Beautiful Mallorca!

Mallorca exceeded my expectations for beautiful scenery and wonderful rides. The guides did everything possible to make sure our experience was a great one. The hotel in Polença gets 5 stars for location since it's on the main square, but the breakfasts and accommodations were just so-so. A winery visit was a top-notch experience - a beautiful setting for a wonderful lunch. A biker's paradise in April and, all in all, a great trip!

Great first experience with VBT on Mallorca!

This was our first time touring with VBT & on Mallorca. Our tours guides Bogumila Mandok, Juantxo Perez & Marc Wheeler were exceptional. They provided us with a first rate experience of cycling & local culture. Our hotel stays & dining experiences were similarly first rate.

Portugal & Spain Bike & River Cruise: Douro Valley

Wonderful Tour

Wonderful trip! Biking along the Douro and surrounding areas was amazing. We were able to go to some remote places and really experience the area without a lot of tourists around. The meals we had in the small towns were top notch! We had wonderful tours as well. Matyas and David were excellent guides. Riding an ebike on this tour enabled me to enjoy the multiple steep hills.

Wonderful experience...wonderful memories

Great way to experience Andalusia from rural, small town, big city. Very much impressed with it all.

Spain: Andalusia, Córdoba & Granada

Great Bike Tour!

I had a wonderful time on the VBT Andalusian Spain trip and would highly recommend this trip to anyone who might be interested. The scenery is beautiful and the towns we visited had so much history. Our guides could not have been better. They made the trip both fun and safe. I went solo and felt like I gained 18 new friends. The food and lodging were top notch and the rides were totally manageable even for someone who is not an avid rider - but if you have a doubt about your abilities rent an E-bike and your worries will be over!

Perfect balance.

A wonderful mix of hiking, cultural activities, and regional foods. The guides were exceptional.

Excellent tour

The tour was outstanding in every way. The two guides were excellent. My only complaint is with the travel arrangements which were resolved, I believe, only because I complained vociferously. .

Would Repeat the Experience if I Could

This travel experience was even better than I thought. The hikes were beautiful and not too challenging. The scenery, food, and locations were fabulous. The guides were experienced, knowledgeable and best of all, personable. The accommodations, especially the Fontsanta Hotel Thermal and Spa were excellent. We had 17 people in our group and initially I thought this was a bit much but it proved to be wonderful. Great people to enhance an absolutely wonderful experience.
