Switzerland

Couldn't be better.

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?

Best views of France's Alsace Region

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

Outstanding trip with some shortcomings

This was my third VBT trip. The cycling and beauty of this tour was outstanding, but I felt that there were some shortcomings in comparison to previous trips. There was no local experience of dining at the home(s) of locals, nor were there any guided tours provided by outside guides. The support vehicle had limited snacks and they were only available once in the morning when we stopped an hour or so after breakfast. It would have been nice to have snacks available at the end of the morning cycling or in the afternoon as on previous trips. I still provided a good rating based on the other aspects of the trip.

Don’t miss the pre trip

This trip has it all. Easy riding through stunning scenery on rail trails and around lakes, stops in picturesque medieval town centers, great food, and amazing accommodations. Where else do you get to stay in an ancient abbey, a castle, and a famous spa? The bikes were new and quite nice, and the guides, Jackie and Cedrick, the best.

Exceptional bike guides!

The biking trails every day were excellent and guides were exceptional. The only drawback to the trip was the adjustments due to the high water level on the Rhine. In an effort to include what we would have seen traveling down the Rhine, we ended up being transported in buses. An understandable adjustment but the original itinerary would have been truly enjoyable.

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!

Don’t know how I will top this

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