A tour that was good for the soul!
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.
Fabulous and easy even for non cyclists (hire an e-bike though). Trip notes of 30 pages long were not all that helpful and needs to include a simple list of toilets stops, cafes and key sights. It’s easy to use the phone app and also work out which side of the river you should be on.
Overall excellent.
A very enjoyable and scenic ride along the Danube River. With idyllic views along the way and the Wachau region stood out as a real highlight.
