Tour description
This gravel tour begins in Villach, a lively town at the meeting point of the Drau and Gail rivers on the edge of the Klagenfurt basin. Shortly after the start, you leave Austria behind and continue your journey into Italy, entering the diverse region of Friuli-Venezia Giulia.
This area is known for its varied landscapes and rich cultural mix. Austrian, Slovenian, and Venetian influences come together here, shaping not only the architecture and traditions but also the local cuisine. Along the route, you can experience this unique blend of cultures through regional dishes and wines.
Gradually, the scenery changes as the peaks of the Carnic Alps fade into the distance and the route leads you south toward the sea. The landscape opens up, and the Adriatic coastline appears with its long stretches of sandy beaches. The tour ends in Trieste, the historic port city that once served as the main maritime gateway of the Habsburg Empire.
Route Overview
The tour follows a mix of dedicated cycle paths and very quiet country roads, passing through small villages and scenic landscapes. The first stages are mainly on asphalt, while the final sections combine paved roads with attractive gravel tracks, adding variety and a true adventure feel to the ride.

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 ...29 Apr

Great experience with Europe Bike Tours and Lukas. They stayed in touch with me through my whole bike ride from Prague to Dresden. Lukas and team answered questions before, during, and after the ride through a WhatsApp group created for the purpose. All the instructions were very detailed and sufficient to conclude a good ride. I would recommend them any day.

What a pleasant and positive surprise. Europe bike tours was amazing before (Pretour-meet) during (WhatsApp) and after (followup and pickup). And the other super pleasant surprise was the wonderful country of Czechia. It is under advertised but clean, modern, friendly and the biking through rural small towns was wonderful.

I did the Prague to Krakow self-guided tour.
A great route with such history and two great cities! Would highly recommend not only the route, but the tour company. I was provided with Ride with GPS files in advance and a host of maps and other information upon arrival in Prague. They also use the "Trip Plans" app, which not only gives you the routes, but historical and other information about the towns you will be passing through and restaurant recommendations!
Great communication during the ride as well - even making a route change along the way due to road construction (they updated the Ride with GPS file in seemingly real time).
I have done a dozen or so self-guided solo bike trips around the world and often have had very little support - this team made it easy and they were always just a WhatsApp text or call away.
Looking at booking my next tour with them now...
Thanks!

Tour Prague - Vienna Greenways Tour - Short
I participated in the Prague-Vienna Greenway with my 16-year-old son.
We opted for the self-guided option, and it was a wonderful experience.
My son was very excited about cycling between the well-known cities of Prague and Vienna, and he felt a great sense of accomplishment when we arrived.
This was my first time in the Czech Republic, and the atmosphere was very different from other Western European countries I had visited.
Along the way, we were able to experience the diverse beauty of the Czech Republic, with endless wheat fields, the atmosphere of the small villages we passed, and the pure forest air.
I was a little worried about my son's physical condition, but the route allowed for shortcuts such as taking the train, so we were able to reach the finish line safely.
The choice of towns and hotels we stayed in was very well-balanced, and we had a comfortable stay. Our checked luggage was always there when we arrived, so the operation was excellent.
Even though there was no guide during the tour, support members were always available via chat, so we were able to proceed without any worries. We were provided with plenty of information about towns and dining spots before the start, and when we needed real-time support on the spot, such as choosing shortcuts, they responded immediately, making it feel like we were with a guide.
Japanese people are probably dying to go to Italy or France, but the Czech Republic allows you to fully experience Europe and there are many cyclists to be seen, so I think it's perfect for people who prefer a more unconventional itinerary.
Thank you so much to everyone at Europe Bike Tours!
I'd love to come again.

The castles and the medieval atmosphere alongside nature and agriculture are simply charming. Along the way, we met deer, horses, geese, cows, and more. The trip is independent, but the help of Euro-Bike, which included bike rental, hotel reservations in the most perfect places, and the hopping of our luggage from hotel to hotel, makes the trip easy and simple. It saved me a lot of work and took away unnecessary stress. The new app makes it even easier and more convenient. I recommend it to anyone who loves bikes.

We cycled from Prague to Vienna in July, crossing Bohemia and Moravia.
The route took us on both bike paths and quiet country roads. The support provided by Europe Bike Tours was very helpful. The app with maps and route guidance was very effective. Their WhatsApp support was always prompt.
We really appreciated the accommodations we chose, both in terms of quality and location. The locations were always convenient to the historic centers of the towns we visited or to public transportation in the major cities.
Highly recommended!
