Cycling Holidays in Europe – Self-Guided & Guided Bike Tours

Tour Ohře/Eger river trail - reverse

My first time riding with Europe Bike Tours! I recently completed a guided 8-day Eger River/Spa Triangle tour, a custom route combining aspects of two other trips. Notably, our entire group (except me) were return customers, all of them having biked previously (and more than once) with the company. Their confidence in and loyalty to Europe Bike Tours is not misplaced.

Guiding a tour group over any distance and length of time is an art, and Lukas and his team have perfected it. They are flexible and accommodating where they can (or need to!) be but are also skilled at keeping things moving on time and in the right direction. They are attentive to riders’ needs, keep their fleet of bikes (an astonishing array of them) in great condition, and have a wealth of knowledge of the local area and its history to share. Importantly, they are open to suggestions and feedback – one senses that they are constantly “tweaking” the recipe to refine the experience, which is exactly what you want to see.

All this aside, the critical foundation for any successful guided tour is the people, and Lukas, Jan, and the gang are just plain fun to spend time with! No surprise, then, that they attract riders and clients who are engaging and interesting.

I had an amazing time, and would not hesitate to travel with Europe Bike Tours again!

Tour Dresden-Krakov- Warsaw FG

We have a great time cycling with Europe Bike Tours, we hope to do another trip next year.
What a spectacular bike trip from Dresden to Warsaw! The whole journey was incredible, but what really made it unforgettable were our guides, Klara and Toni, simply the best—so helpful, fun, and attentive. Five stars, without a doubt!

Tour Dresden-Krakov- Warsaw FG

What an unforgettable ride!

Our bike trip from Dresden to Kraków with Klara and Tony was nothing short of magical. Every single moment was filled with attention, care, and so much love. From the perfectly planned routes and cozy stops along the way, to the laughter, deep talks, the hotels and shared meals, everything was simply perfect.

Klara and Tony, you both have a gift for making people feel special. Your kindness, patience, and genuine warmth turned this journey into one of the most beautiful memories of our lives. We felt cared for in every detail, and the love you put into everything did not go unnoticed.

We absolutely loved being with you two. The connection, the energy, the way we all clicked as a group made it feel like more than just a trip. It felt like family.

We are already counting down the days and can’t wait for the next year. Same team, new roads, more magical moments to come.

Thank you for everything. We love you both ❤️❤️. 🚲🚲

See yous soon ….

I loved the trip! Our guides, Klara and Anthony, were always attentive, thoughtful, and caring. The itinerary was wonderful, filled with beautiful places and fascinating history, all brought to life by our guides’ excellent storytelling.

The hotels, meals, picnics, and bicycles were all perfect.

Tour Dresden - Krakov- Warsav FG

Exceptional route, great bikes, and guides dedicated to providing the best experience for everyone. FANTASTIC! Klara and Toni are always willing to meet any professional and caring needs. A GREAT JOB! Highly recommended for cyclists of any level!

Tour Vienna - Budapest

Great trip! Lukas and company couldn’t have been more supportive or patient. Bikes were terrific, equipped with phone holders for navigation, panniers and handlebar pouch —all greatly appreciated. Not one but three apps provided for navigation, detailed trip notes and recommendations. Hotels that were selected were first rate. Been on many bike trips - self-guided and guided — and European Bike Tours ranks at the top.

Tour Prgue Budapešt Short

Excellent communication, logistics and bike trip plan -- options presented at every leg and all recommendations proved winners -- made for a seamless, highly enjoyable tour through Central Europe. Recommend and would book again.

Tour Eger river trail

And here is another review from June 2026

I’ve now done 6 tour with Lukas & Vitek and the @europebiketours team, and they continue to impress every single time.

Our curated Eger River tour in the Spa Triangle region was absolutely fantastic.

The cycling was stupendous, the weather was terrific, and the food and dining were amazing throughout.

The hotels and accommodations were perfect, and having some evenings where we could enjoy spa treatments was such a treat after a great day on the bike.

What really keeps me coming back, though, is the people.

Lukas and team deliver an outstanding level of service and make everything feel easy, welcoming, and beautifully organised.

The quality of the bikes is also impeccable. Thank you Jan!!

I honestly can’t say enough good things about this group. If you’re thinking about booking a cycling holiday, I highly recommend @europebiketours.

Adding on to my below review from 2022.

Now 2024: I have returned from my 5th tour w Europe Bike Tours where Lukas, Vitek and team were spectacular as usual. We had crazy weather and a few logistical hiccups and this team worked through them like magic where us clients experienced “smooth cycling”.

If you want to see Central Europe on a bike, do it w Europe Bike Tours & Lukas & Vitek!

2022 review:
I have just completed my 4th trip with Europe Bike Tours. Lukas, Vitek and their team is customer service oriented and provide a first class bike tour experience. I cannot recommend this company and their staff highly enough. I’m looking forward to returning for a 5th trip!

Tour Pague-Krakow All way biking

Rode from Prague to Krakow May/June 2026. Excellent bike. Good hotels. Amazingly good information provided: GPX files for the route, descriptions of the route with all the details, potential detours to special sites, and lists of places to visit along the way, the best restaurants at each stop, and even where to get first aid or bike repairs.

Tour Prague-Krakow tour

Prague to Krakow self-guided cycle tour April 2026. Europe bike tours was fantastic and well-organized. This was our first self- guided tour - loved having luggage transfer and gps route all organized for us. We went early in April knowing it was a bit early in the cycling season and weather could be variable. Layers, long pants and gloves needed, but aside from a few chilly morning starts the weather was great. Lots of trees in blossom and the start of tulips. So many beautiful churches, castles and town squares. Highly recommend doing a city bike tour of Prague with Lukas as well.
