This was one of the most favorite travel things I’ve ever done! The wine in the area is fantastic and you are biking in such a beautiful area of country with the prettiest quaint villages. THe group size was perfect for the tour and our guide did an excellent job getting us together and allowing everyone to enjoy the biking. The quality of the bikes were surprisingly good. The were lightweight, responsive and fun to bike. I made some great friends on the bike ride as welll! The biking was never that difficult, mostly flat terrain. It took the whole day mostly but all i wanted to do was spend more time in the valley! There is some great history in the area as well that the guide was helpful to provide. Again, one of my favorite experiences and a beautiful convenient way to get our of Vienna and enjoy some beautiful countryside only a short distance away!

Absolutely fantastic, highly recommend to everyone. We did it in the fall (late October) and the leaves were stunning.

Tim was absolutely excellent! Even though there was the threat of rain, Tim still was ok with us wanting to keep our original travel date. The tour ended up being Tim, my husband, and me. Tim had taken the time to meet the locals, especially the winery owners, and is clearly on good terms with all of them. He knows the area, the wines in the area, and a lot about the history of the area. We were able to meet one of the owners - Max. His wines are absolutely delicious and well-worth the visit!! Hearing his family’s story and his own story made our trip even more personable and memorable. We highly recommend this tour. If any of the other guides are half as good as Tim, you will greatly enjoy your time!

My wife and I had an amazing time biking through the gorgeous Wachau valley region. Our group was small, only 7 people in total, and our guide, Tomas, was incredibly kind, funny, and informative as we made our journey. The tour included a visit to just two wineries, but honestly this felt like plenty considering the amount of wine offered at each one, and all of the other sites along the way. Tomas and the winemakers we encountered offered lots of context for the wines we were tasting, which really helped me better appreciate the subtleties in flavor and body imparted by the environment and processing. Definitely bring money for lunch; it was at a traditional Austrian place in a small town on the Danube, and the food was delicious and affordable. Don't worry too much about having enough stamina or bike riding skill, I hadn't ridden a bike in over 5 years and found it very easy going.

Don't miss this biking excursion to the beautiful Wauchau Valley! This was one of the highlights of our 10 day trip to Eastern Europe. The 15 mile bike ride took us through some picturesque, cobble stone towns along the Danube, making a fews stops for wine tasting and lunch. Tim was a great guide, the pace very relaxed, and the scenery dreamy!
