Switzerland

We had an amazing time - And I can't speak highly enough of every aspect of this trip! Our VBT leaders, Sophie and Bruno, were exceptional, planning everything down to the smallest detail. They were a pleasure to be with in every way. We loved every hotel, each unique, and in the heart of a city, with lots to do in the area. Our e-bikes were brand new, and easy to navigate. We were blessed with beautiful weather and enjoyed our rides each and every day. I would highly recommend this trip - it will definitely not be our last. We are already booked for one next year!

This was our first VBT trip and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The guides were knowledgeable, positive, friendly, helpful and very professional. The GPS navigation was great. The routes were scenic, culturally diverse, and well thought out. The excursions/tours were interesting too. Recommend the ebike for the hills!

This was a trip of a lifetime! My mom and I joined the group and were led by 3 amazing guides! Jean Marc, Philippe, and Margot were so wonderful. They kept us safe, kept us laughing, and helped us make great memories!

The guides were professional and well prepared for this trip. They shared a great deal of cultural information. Each morning we were adequately prepped for the daily rides. The sag wagon provided enough snacks and water. When asked to provide sun screen, they did. All the bike mani tenancy was thoroughly handled well. We have done another cycling trip with VBT in Puglia and really enjoyed the cooking class. It would have been nice to have had an activity like that. The wine tasting was not very interesting or informative.

VBT guides were great! Venue was great. Schedule and communication was great and so enjoyable!

This was a wonderful, well planned trip. I do wish that the very first, warm-up, ride had not been through Basel at rush hour; it was rather unsettling, especially for the first ride. Also, when you ask for information to reserve the size of the bicycle, more information than a person's height, e.g. inseam length, should be requested. The bike reserved for me did not fit and the tour guides were very considerate and creative in obtaining one from the ship. However, that did delay the first ride for the whole group. The tour guides were very attentive to the needs of all the individuals in our group. The rides were very enjoyable and doable. I loved the locations we visited: Breisach, Heidelberg, Strasbourg, Obernai, Koblenz, Cologne, Monnickendam--all were scenic and interesting. The food and accommodations onboard the Emerald Luna were exceptional and much appreciated. The pre- and post-cruise extensions were great, too: accommodations, included tours and suggested sites. This is a great trip for all levels of bikers.

Our guides, Corinne and Claire, were fantastic - knowledgeable, thoughtful, and fun to spend time with. The hikes were beautifully planned with stunning scenery and many fun modes of transportation, and the hotels were all lovely in excellent locations. Most memorable were the experiences; each one felt authentic and special, like something unique we wouldn’t have found on our own. It truly gave the trip an exclusive feel. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of Switzerland with everything thoughtfully taken care of.

It’s too bad there are only 5 stars - I would give this trip a 10 if I could.
