It was a lovely week and one of mybest vacations. Beautiful places , nice bikes and great weather. The only “negative “ point is that we have to share tables with other guests. It is good but it doesn’t need to be in all meals.

We absolutely loved riding through the country side and small towns. Great experience and a great way to see countries outside of big cities. Service by the staff and crew was fantastic. Very friendly, helpful and accommodating. I wanted to give more stars however there were several things that need to be addressed. -The WIFI IS TERRIBLE!!!! It wouldn’t take much to upgrade this and make it a better experience. -The morning briefings at times were confusing and the slides sometimes didn’t match up properly to the conversation. -The final morning we had to be out of our rooms by 9:00 it would have been nice to be able to check out at 10:00 allowing us to go back to the room one last time after breakfast. The lines to the single bathroom was VERY LONG.

I felt that the trip was a bit disorganized. When we arrived at the boat the staff did not greet us and tell us what to do with our luggage. Later after the information meeting we were told that if you had an e-bike to go up on deck and find your bike and get your battery to charge it in your room. It was pitch black on the top deck and I fell on some dark wicker furniture and really hurt myself. In fact it’s been a week and a half and my hip still hurts. The tour guide was there and did help me and I also got some ice from reception. The top deck should have had the lights on OR the battery should have been left in the room like the charger was. I felt that the instructions for each day was lacking. They did not tell us any points of interest or any good restaurants etc. I also felt that the days were very time restricted. We had to be back on the boat at a certain time and this meant we really didn’t have anytime to explore. Maybe that is why no points of interest was mentioned. The food was adequate but I think the lunch was very boring. A meat and cheese sandwich every day! Other than the tour guides the staff were awesome! The boat was very clean as well.

We had a daily briefing of the bike route which was very thorough. The ship was in excellent condition, newly refurbished, the cabin roomy enough with plenty of closet/storage. Entire crew was friendly and helpful. The food was plentiful and over the top with 5 course dinners every night beautifully presented and of excellent quality. My only criticism was that our cruise director tended to be a little short and clipped with his answers if we asked him a question–as if he were annoyed that he had to say it again. Otherwise, we loved the entire trip. It ended to quickly, but we’re planning on doing another Boat Bike Tour next year.

It was one of the best trips I have ever been to. Great sceneries, planned perfect, best service and logistics, the bikes are well maintained, the boat and the crue just lovely. The food was excellent. The room much more spacious than I imagined. The combination between nature and cities was perfect. The amount of cycling per day did not need pre training if you are in shape but if you are untrained it might be A little tiring. The everyday explanation on the trail was accurate and we could go As A couple by ourselves. There was an option to go in A group with A guide if you want so you have all possibilities.
