We found the Prague to Vienna Greenways trip to be a great way to discover the peace and tranquilty of the Czech Republic after having enjoyed the bustle of Prague. The attention to detail from Lukas was excellent and we were most impressed by the selection of hotels and pensions along the way. The bikes were well maintained and we thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Thank you.30 Jul

Rozenn and Eyveline, Prague-Berlin August 2020
Many thanks to Viteck for organizing the Prague-Berlin trip. Everything was perfect: the bikes in excellent condition, the complete documents (maps, gpx, ...), the quality accommodation with a warm welcome. I also appreciated Viteck's kindness and his professionalism. I therefore recommend this trip which combines the culture of 2 countries and beautiful landscapes.
