Baltic Bicycle Trips

Our guide, Pablo, was outstanding! As was our driver and lunch maker extraordinaire, Bill. Pablo was supportive, concise in his explanations of what to expect each day while cycling. He has a fun sense of humor and a positive attitude. In addition to all of that, he is so very interesting. Bill is kind, humorous and a fabulous "cook", making excellent picnics for us. The cycling itself was just right for each day.

A great trip, a couple of steep climbs, should be ok for someone with good general fitness. Ali our guide was extremely good, knowledgeable and always ready to answer our questions about Turkey and the historic sites we visited.

Our tour leader Massimo made a great trip a stellar trip. Everything was handled with professionalism and humor. We had a very diverse group of people and he managed everyone and everything so well. Itinerary was great, hotels were unique and full of character. One thing to note, even though this trip was rated as leisurely one still needed a solid level of fitness to complete it. Very happy with my experience with Explore!

This is a really enjoyable cycle from Porto to Lisbon. The towns that you stay in a very pretty in the hotel accommodation is very good. There are a few bigger hills but for the most part it's very flat. I'll totally the Pablo I was absolutely excellent. Overall was very pleased with this trip and happily do it again.

My holiday was very enjoyable, wonderful scenery, great food and company. The guide was excellent as were the hotels. The itinerary was well planned with plenty of time to explore on your own.

I enjoyed the mix of cycling and other activities. Ali was the best! So knowledgeable about every aspect of culture and history, concerned about everyone's welfare and just generally personable. A couple of "heads ups" to potential customers--the route is challenging, so if you think you might struggle on long climbs, think about the e-bike option. But be sure you know that you can get a bike that fits you. The only thing that detracted from the trip for me was that the bike was dangerously large for me!
