Vermont: Lake Champlain Islands, Burlington & Stowe
Come cycle the bike paths and byways of VBT’s Vermont home! Since our inception in 1971, VBT has guided group cycling tours throughout the pastoral valleys of our native Vermont—and we know every hidden corner. From the artsy-chic waterfront city of Burlington to the peaceful byways of the Champlain Islands, you’ll love spinning through the clean Vermont air—spotting ospreys and majestic great blue herons winging their way along tranquil shores. Along the way, you’ll meet VBT’s countless Vermont friends—including a Vermont dairy farmer who introduces you to the local tradition of maple sugaring during a tour of his authentic Vermont sugar shack. As you spin through Stowe’s evergreen mountain valleys, you’ll even have a chance to stop at a local farm stand for Vermont’s favorite summer treat—the maple creemee.

Hotel Vermont

Fantastic!! On a scale of 1 - 10 I give this tour a 12! The guides were awesome and so were the hotel accommodations. The scenery was gorgeous and the riding was so much fun. I highly recommend VBT and this tour.
Vermont: Champlain Islands, Burlington & Stowe
I loved our trip to Vermont for the bicycle tour! Our Leaders were outstanding and I felt like we all were Family in just a short time. The sites and the planned stops from the winery to the dairy farm were not just educational but such enjoyable experiences. The scenery on the rides and daily routes was over the top beautiful! One of my best vacations ever!
