I LOVED this vacation. I am an avid biker; my husband is not; and we both enjoyed the levels of activity and flexibility. The vineyards and villages were amazing to see, especially by bicycle. Jean and Jean Francois took care of our every need, and the accommodations were wonderful. What's not to like?

This trip was better than anticipated. We expected a great time, but this was outstanding in service, leadership and bike friendliness.

Switzerland the the French Alps
Wonderful, beautiful trip, with excellent guides. Lodgings were comfortable and relaxing. My only criticism is lack of protocol for Covid; no masks required on bus trips, or guidance when several members had colds; 10/20 guests tested positive at the end of the trip.

Bike + River Cruise=a great vacation
This was a lovely, leisurely bike trip. Being on a river boat afforded flexibility to join the Emerald excursions or even just spend an afternoon on the top deck reading. Of course one could also opt to do full day cycling on mostly flat, scenic routes. It's rare that all needs can be met on a bike trip but this one had most covered: great accommodations and food, diversity in program options, and as much cycling as you feel like doing. Did I mention that our guides were terrific as well?

Best Vacation Ever!
VBT knocked it out of the park. The attention to detail in every aspect of this trip was astounding. Our guides Maytas and Werner were fantastic. I would book a new trip every 6 months if I could afford to! For now, I will bask in the wonderful memories, and save up for the next adventure with VBT.

Mind boggling!
This is simply a mind-boggling trip. For a midwesterner like me, the sight of the Alps is nothing short of magical (I'm afraid the Rockies will never look the same to me again). Each day's trip is very thoughtfully planned-the walks are energetic without being too technical or difficult. Our guides, Alex and Cedric, were wonderful-very knowledgeable about the area, and culture and history, and shared generously. You will always eat well, and the lodgings are very comfortable.I'd do it again!

Switzerland tour
Absolutely beautiful tour. The guides did an excellent job in presenting the best of the country. Lots of movement with the public transit, but both Claire and Cedric were fully available to everyone in getting us where we needed to be. High energy tour!
