The #1 reason for a five star rating is the staff/crew. Every single person who I interacted with, everyone who had any role at all in creating this experience was not just good at their job, they were also always warm, friendly, ready to help, at the same time efficient and talented! From morning to night, each and every one was a day brightener! They went above and beyond my expectations. The cabins were comfortable and cared for. Housekeeping was excellent-The food? Absolutely 5 star and beyond! ( Seriously, I have never eaten so well, day after day!) The bikes were great, as was the process of getting the bike to head out and returning after the ride. The crew took care of everything! The routes we rode were beautiful and easy to navigate, except for one route that took us on a busy highway without a designated bike lane. Ideally that would never be part of a route; stressful and dangerous. I am sharing this amazing experience with anyone who asks; I wholeheartedly recommend it. Thanks and kudos to each and every person who created this amazing adventure!!

Wonderful trip! Chilly but great!

The camaraderie of my fellow riders made the tour special. Each night the seatings for dinner happened to vary. Every one made me feel welcome. The travelers were from all over – Brazil, Canada, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Maine, Alaska, California, Florida and New York. Everyone seemed to enjoy the experience.

We had the best time! The crew and guides were great. We enjoyed all the excursions and tours. The fact that the crew was able to change our itinerary to ensure the best weather made our trip so much more enjoyable. We (over) enjoyed the food. Luko was able to make amazing dishes in his small galley kitchen. The boat was very comfortable with lots of gathering areas. The only thing we would change is to eliminate the captain’s night. Our captain did not speak English so it made his time at our table quite uncomfortable for everyone. We will definitely book another trip!

The crew and the guides were terrific, always making sure we were comfortable and aware of the plans ahead of time. The food was delicious, fresh and plentiful. The ebikes were perfectly sized for the terrain. We always felt safe. We had a really great time.

I can’t speak highly enough of my recent Boat Bike tour down the Moselle. Staff and guides were fabulous, cabin was really comfortable and roomy and food was exceptional.

The guides were absolutely amazing. The food was amazing. The ship was beautiful. The ability of the crew and guides to pivot when the weather turned less favorable was impressive.

We just completed the Pearls of Dalmatia tour between Dubrovnik and Split and to put it succinctly, we had a fantastic time. The overall organization of the trip was excellent, the crew of the boat first class and the two guides, Ivan and Nicky were very informative and knew their job superbly – making it a truly enjoyable experience. The rides through the gorgeous Croatian islands felt challenging enough and safe with too many incredible views to count. Thank you all for an amazing experience. We will be back.

The location, the crew (especially our chef)

Can’t say enough about the gracious hospitality shown by our captain Salvatore, son Angelo, and daughter Vanessa. The Sundial is a family operation and a beautiful example of a wooden caique. The dinners prepared by Vanessa were OUTSTANDING and a high point of the tour. I greatly appreciated the opportunities to take a swim from the Sundial, and to visit other local beaches as well. The combination of swimming and biking was a big reason for choosing this tour. I was grateful for the headlamps provided for the nighttime Stromboli expedition. Thankfully there were no accidents and our able guide Jochen provided a helping hand when needed. Stromboli cooperated with continuous red-hot lava eruptions that were thrilling to watch. Ebikes were well maintained and fully charged each day, and very comfortable to ride. In the future, addition of rear view mirrors to the ends of the handlebars would increase the riders sense of safety. I would highly recommend this experience!!
