Switzerland

Wonderful trip to Alsace!

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!

Highly recommend - VBT and Alsace Region

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!

Biking Trip France & Switzerland

I absolutely loved this trip. From the moment we started the trip, our guides (Luigi and Eve) made us feel welcome and supported. Lodging was another highlight—charming inns and boutique hotels with local character, great food, and warm hospitality. The rides along the countryside were spectacular. What made this trip stand out was the perfect blend of physical activity, cultural immersion, and pure joy. I can honestly say it was one of the most memorable travel experiences of my life. Highly recommended to anyone who loves cycling, food, history, and a bit of adventure. I can’t wait to do another tour with this company!

Beautiful Ride Great Scenery

Beautiful Ride, Great Scenery, Tour was Fantastic despite several rainy days. Loved riding on so many bike paths, the scenery was spectacular! The pre-extension in Chamonix is a must for anyone doing this tour. Take the cable car to Mount Blanc and have breathtaking views of the valley. Luigi and Eve were great tour guides. Very knowledgeable of the area and routes and very engaging with everyone. Everyone looked forward to stopping at Luigi's Snack Table. The accommodations overall were excellent and the food very good. The only challenging times were riding through the busier towns themselves either at the beginning or end of some routes. The GPS guidance was very good, but traffic made it a bit hectic when navigating in the cities themselves. Highly recommend this tour.

Basel to Amsterdam

We throughly enjoyed our first VBT bike trip. Our leaders (Marijn and Mathilde) were amazing and quite knowledgeable of all four countries we visited. We both used the E-bikes which made the biking super easy. (We do not bike much at home.) The Bike with GPS app was fantastic and you didn’t need to be on cellular to use it. The Emerald Luna ship that we sailed on was great. (Though, don’t worry about which side of the ship to pick your cabin, we mostly sailed at night and during the day when at port there was usually another ship tied up next to us. We were not on the ship much during the day)

Rhine Bike & River Cruise: Basel to Amsterdam

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.

Country Walkers’ new Swiss walking tour

This tour is a new offering for Country Walkers. The itinerary offers just the right amount of hiking and other activities in the stunning surroundings of the Swiss Alps. The guides were very personable, fun and knowledgeable. The accommodations were excellent boutique hotels close to transportation hubs and attractions. The included meal were all first class.

First-rate tour experience - we will use CW again!

This tour was everything I hoped our visit to Switzerland would include: challenging hikes with breathtaking views, interesting educational sessions featuring local culture, and top notch accommodations with stellar amenities. Every detail was taken care of so we could just relax and enjoy our trip. Our guides were from the area and provided a wealth of information we would not have discovered on our own.
