Switzerland

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!

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?

Switzerland, France: Lake Geneva was outstanding! I believe seeing the world on a bicycle and meeting new friends on your tour is definitely the way to enjoy a vacation! Thanks to our amazing tour guides, Philipe and Jacky, they both had the knowledge, passion, and spirit to lead us on a this wonderful adventure! Don’t hesitate….sign up! You won’t regret it. Going again? Of course! 2025 Lake Como, here we come!

Six fantastic days of biking! This was our first ever bike trip and we thoroughly enjoyed every part of it. We were very lucky to have such perfect sunny days that were book-ended by rain. We loved the two gals that led the tour...they were "over the top" in every way! I had never been on an E bike, but quickly took to it and now want one of my own. I still felt that I got a lot of exercise ...just loved it. Every morning the bike would be ready with a bike bag and fresh water with lemon and the helmet. The hotels were all top notch also. This particular trip has amazing scenery, so it was very lucky that clouds didn't obscure the magnificent peaks. Will definitely try another trip!

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)

Both the VBT guides and Emerald Waterways Cruise Line were wonderful. It was a great experience, and VBT does an excellent job merging the bike ride schedule in with the boat's itinerary.

We had a great time on our hike in the Swiss alps. Our guides, Cedric and Alex were personable, knowledgeable and helpful. We enjoyed each of hotels. They were of top quality, clean and comfortable. The breakfast offerings were delicious and staff were friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the many forms of transportation - trains, gondolas, cog wheel trains, and boats. The experience allowed us to easily find our own way to Geneva for our flight to London. And all our fellow guests were fun to be with. Most of all we loved the beauty and grandeur of the scenery. We sent photos home each day, but none did justice to the experience that we enjoyed. The hikes were well within our capabilities. The tour was exceptional.

Enjoyed almost every aspect of this trip: awe-inspiring scenery (having near perfect weather certainly helped), excellent guides, great comraderie among the group. I got a good moderate workout with each hike. Kudos to the CW staff who planned the itinerary. First trip with CW where I traveled by regular train/cog-wheel train/ferry and gondola..no vans (which I did not miss). We never waited more than 10-15 minutes from one means of transportation to the next. My only complaint was the room size at the first 2 hotels which were small for me (single traveler). The last hotel was wonderful with a great indoor pool for end of day relaxation. The food at the included evening meals was OK, certainly not gourmet, but the group always had a good time.
