Randa Froebel

Biking was my favorite part. The food was quite good. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The piano player was my least favorite part. When he played, I felt like I was in a nursing home. I realize that we had unseasonably hot temperatures, but fans or ice or something could have been done to help deal with the heat. A small package of complimentary swag should have been given to each person. Include a water bottle, rubber deal to hold cell phone and perhaps a hat. Charging $10 for a cheap, branded cell phone holder was too much, especially when the route depended on an app.

We had a great time. Being on the inaugural tour it did seem on some days a little bit unorganized. But the team did their best with certain moments that were beyond their control.

This tour completely exceeded our expectations! From the crew to the boat to the meals, everything was fantastic. Croatia is a must-see destination and boat bike tours is the way to do it.

Boat Bike Tours: Europe’s leading operator for boat and bike tours in The Netherlands and the rest of Europe

Boat Bike Tours offers 8 day-tours by bike and barge. Experience our unique combination of cycling and cruising: you will explore a region and discover all there is to see in the beautiful places along our routes. We offer wonderful bike rides over beautiful cycle paths in about 15 European countries, where you’ll be cycling at your own pace or in a group with an experienced tour guide.

By using the detailed maps, GPS and travel information, you can stop at the sights you would like to visit along the route. If you don’t feel like cycling, you can always decide to stay on board for a day. For each of our tours, we have pointed out the possible types of guidance and the intensity of the cycling routes with icons.

Your accommodation is aboard one of our ships or sailing ships, in well-equipped cabins that provide a comfortable stay and a different view every morning. We have a variety of cabin types, with different comfort levels and extras; all of them have private bathrooms. On all of our ships you’ll enjoy good food (breakfast, a take-out lunch, and a three-course dinner), drinks and an international traveling party.
