The guides were fantastic and the ship was beautiful. Would have enjoyed longer cycling days.

The boat and the staff were great. The tour guide did not help our experience. He spoke very little English and it seemed he got a little frustrated when we asked questions. Buying the drinks package, this should be an all day offer and not have a start time of 1600. Not to have a latte in the morning seemed to be a little ridiculous.The bike tours where mostly good and needs some updates for ferry expense and timings. Some ferries didn’t run until 0930, so when we docked we couldn’t take the ferry. This made us have to plan the day differently for biking.. Our morning briefing for biking was a waste of time but may have been fine for the German speaking cyclists. However the crew was fantastic and made the experience memorable.

All of the staff- Floris, Lauret, Carolina and Peter were extremely competent at their jobs, and so friendly. Food was delicious and rooms were comfortable. The area we biked was beautiful and trails were lovely.

The accomodations were 2 star level poor ventilation and air system rooms very damp and cramped. The food was average but their seemed to be an issue with the amount of food available, their seemed to be some kind of rationing with the amount of food available. The staff was luke warm and somewhat blunt and not really accommodating. The bicycle tour was through Burgundy country but very little wine vineyard tours, I think the selection of sites to see during cycling should be reviewed . I would probably lean towards a 2.5 score on this experience. I would not recommend it to others

Every aspect of the trip was great. Our guides were very helpful, informative and helped to form our group from being strangers at the beginning to becoming friends by the end of our tour. The boat staff could not have been better – great food and service. The Istrian coast was stunningly beautiful. We highly recommend this tour.

Food average was average, snacks after bike day were packaged cookies, windows in our cabin looked like they hadn’t be washed, guides sometimes started the tour again before the sweeper was ready, on change over day they were loading the boat again while we were trying to relax(very unprofessional, should have done it when we were out biking), staff was kind and courteous, Meals had a good variety with lots for those with a bigger appetite, felt like we were on a regimented schedule, never knew what time we were getting back to boat at the end of the day, Rooms always felt damp

We had a great experience. It was our first Boat and Bike Tour so we did not know what to expect. Our guide, Nina, was excellent and tailored our ride to our wishes. The boat was nice and the crew was very helpful. I would definitely recommend the tour and hope to return for another.

This is my third trip with Boat Bike Tours, and all have been exemplary. On this most-recent trip, all went well. Every member of the staff were wonderful, the captain, first mate, chef, housekeeper, and guide. The barge was fine and th cuisine was excellent. The rooms were clean and well kept. Because I am an experienced cyclist, I prefer to self-guide using Ride With GPS, which worked just fine. Using the Ship Finder app allowed me to track the barge and meet it easily.

Great staff, food, clean boat, and value for cost.

This was our first biking trip and we LOVED it! The accommodations were comfy, the food very tasty and the staff wonderful, friendly and went out of their way to accommodate everyone. The daily biking was well organized and the routes, with both the daily map and GPS directions, were easy to follow. We were very happy with the towns we visited and feel we saw the “real” Holland that most people wouldn’t experience by driving the country. We will definitely be planning another trip.
