Austria and Switzerland Tours and Trips

This was our first ever multi-day bicycle trip. We loved it. The Danube cycle path offered a variety of scenery…the beautiful river, forests, rural and agricultural areas, small towns, cities, ancient and modern places. The hotels that were arranged for us were lovely and the luggage transport worked flawlessly. We loved the bountiful Austrian style breakfasts. Our only complaint was that one bike was difficult to pedal for the first two days, until we had it repaired at a bike shop. The chain was rubbing on the chain guard and the front wheel was overtightened. Later, as we were approaching Vienna, the handlebars on that bike suddenly became loose and swiveled 30 degrees, which could have caused a serious accident. So we recommend that the mechanics who provide the bikes do a much more thorough job of inspecting and testing each one, as if their spouse was going to ride it for 210 miles.

Our tour guide Robert was probably the most knowledgeable person I have ever met. He was attentive to all our needs and went out his way to make sure had the best experience. The added excursions were well worth the money. And the views are amazing.

Fantastic tour to this part of Europe. Great pace for a holiday with later starts. Wide range of experiences included and as an added option. Guide and driver were incredibly knowledgeable and made our trip fun. This has our most enjoyable in holiday in Europe.

Our cycle tour was a special birthday celebration for me and my sisters 60th year and it didn’t disappoint. The tour was very well organised, from the information we received when collecting our bikes, the maps and additional info, to the collecting of our luggage every morning and the delivery of the luggage to the next destination. We had paid extra for 4 star hotels and whilst most of them were lovely there was one hotel that was definitely not a 4 star hotel. We were very lucky with the weather, and thoroughly enjoyed every day cycling along the stunningly beautiful Danube. Truly a holiday to remember. As a result of this experience we are eagerly planning our next cycling holiday.

We saw places Ive only seen on /TV, our Director had a full itinerary each day, It was never a boring trip, and just when we thought we saw it all, another beautiful scenery appears. Our bus driver Chris was the best we"ve ever had, so professional and he could back-up that big bus like he was driving a Yugo... Rob knows so much about the countries we visited, I felt I was in a history class, he was very informative.

Loved the trip to Eastern Europe what made the trip very enjoyable was having Rhi Smith she was the best tour guide I have ever had/ I have traveled extensively
