Austria Private Tours

1. The Wachau Valley was the highlight. 2. Finding the correct bus route to pick up the bikes on the first evening was a bit of a challenge. 3. The GPX worked so well letting us know within 50 yards that we were off the suggested trail. 4. While St. Agatha was beautiful and the lodging comfortable; contacting the pickup and waiting for a couple of hours was not our favorite way to end a rainy biking day. 5. Had we realized several hotels were not in walking distance to restaurants, we would have purchased the evening meal plan. 6. The days were filled with a variety of beautiful changing scenery while riding the entire week along the Danube — good trip.

Did this trip in September 2025 and had the best time. Would recommend a baseline fitness level where you're comfortable with extended cardio because there's a fair bit of uphill-ness. Just a heads-up one of the mountain cabins was shared bunk room and no showers if that's really not your thing (the other hut is amazing though and the views from both are incredible). Generally amazing hikes and views and seamless transport of our big luggage to accommodation.

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 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.

This tour was great and I would highly recommend it. The daily cycling distance was good – enough of a challenge but not too far. The route was not too difficult with an e-bike and the navigation system worked well. The roads felt very safe as they were mainly logging tracks or small country roads with minimal traffic. The scenery was beautiful and the villages, castles and churches amazing. The local staff were kind, helpful and responsive.

We enjoyed this self guided cycling trip from Prague to Vienna. Accommodation was fantastic, the bikes great and the terrain a mix of forest, cycle paths and quiet country roads. At the end of each day we had UNESCO listed towns to explore. All the details were taken care of. Thank you!
