Spain

Scenery, riding history, art, food - it has it all

This was one of the best VBT tours we have taken. Food, riding, scenery, exploration of the art of Dali, wonderful guides and fantastic accommodations. Pre-trip in Barcelona is a must do to see the Gaudi architecture and Picasso museum as well as experience Catalonia at its best.

A Complete Package

Our favorite VBT trip to date. The cultural experience rivaled the well planned cycling routes. Time spent on and off the bicycle created lasting memories for joyful reflection.

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!

Spain & Portugal: Coastal Camino de Santiago

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!

Can't wait to do another one!

This was my first trip with VBT. I was not disappointed. We did the self-guided tour and it was absolutely amazing. The GPS app worked like a dream and we felt very confident that we would not get lost. The level of ride was perfect and the routes were well thought out for traffic, sightseeing, landscapes, and food/water. Our baggage was moved every 'move-on' day without any problems. The staff was responsive and helpful with all of our questions. We felt safe and looked out for the entire time.

Wouldn’t change a thing about this terrific tour!

I can see why bikers love Mallorca! This is a lovely tour - great scenery on safe secondary roads, terrific accommodations, great food and wine, and excellent guides.

Mallorca dream

Best bike tour we've taken with VBT. We've enjoyed every one, but this checked every box. Scenery, great roads, superb food, and outstanding guides. Our thanks to Bibi and Marc!

Great trip, great leaders.

We really enjoyed this trip and would recommend it. The routes were scenic; the bikes excellent; the food very good; the leaders outstanding; the other experiences (tours, wine tasting, etc.) were fun and informative; the hotels at the beginning and end were very nice. We would suggest using the e-bikes as the terrain is hilly.

Five star tour!

Fabulous trip! We truly enjoyed ourselves and the other people on the tour. We loved being there during Holy Week, too. The pre and post extensions were wonderful, we especially loved Rondo. All of the guides were terrific! Nico and Juan Carlos were fabulous as well. They both had a wonderful sense of humor and were very patient and helpful. We will highly recommend this tour to others and look forward to doing another tour in the future!

The many roads to Santiago

It was well planned, had great accommodations and super guides. We experienced the best landscapes of three separate caminos. I give it a 5 in spite of some rainy days

Spain: Landscapes from the Camino de Santiago

Amazing Experience

Awesome Experience. Everything was amazing from the accommodations to the hikes to the guides. Highly recommend this tour to experience different parts of the Camino de Santiago.

Worth the money.

Our Country Walkers tour either met our expectations or exceeded them in all respects. Our guides, Helle and JuanJo, were terrific; friendly, and engaging, with sufficient knowledge of Mallorca, and environs. They provided encouragement and assistance when necessary. The accommodations were excellent.

Who knew Mallorca is so beautiful

Excellent trip. I went with my daughter and son in law and we all enjoyed ourselves. Guides Isabelle and Juanjo were delightful, helpful, knowledgeable and fun. Initially I was concerned that we were a large group of 17. However everyone got along well and Isabelle and Juanjo managed to accommodate all levels. The hotels were excellent except that in Polenca we sacrificed space for location. Everyone seemed to prefer the new format of more meals on our own. It worked on this trip because we were in towns on those days with a choice of restaurants and cafes. Mallorca is a beautiful island with friendly people and for the most part very good food. Highlights for me were the coastal walks, lunches at the winery and citrus farm and visits to the towns. Suggestions- more food choices st the last two group dinners, options of some guided afternoon walks. I would rate the walking as more moderate to challenging because it is very rocky and steep in parts.
