Hubby and I are looking for honeymoon ideas. Has anyone done any self guided e-bike tours in Europe? We were thinking either Southern Italy or South of France. We are not wine drinkers. Any input would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Maureen thanks!! I'll check it out. Appreciated.

We did one in Holland through TULIP cycling quite a few years ago. Neat through field & fields of tulips.

We did a bike and barge trip from Amsterdam to Brugge. It was amazing. Cycled 35-45km each day.

Dyan which company did you use?
Hubby was leaning toward Italy

Dyan your trip sounds awesome.

Liz we used tripsite.com and we were on the Zwaantje. We actually rented the whole boat, there were 12 couples. Food was amazing, and so nice to see the countryside and small towns. Our guide was excellent too.

Liz I’ve used trip site in both Italy and the Netherlands and have had great success.

We did a trip in France. The dordogne region. It was very good. The hotels and food was top notch. https://randonneetours.com/

In Italy, check out Hotel Belvedere. Rather than moving each day, you check in there for a week and do guided rides each day. They have 5 different levels from relatively basic to very intense. You can change your level each day as you wish. Everything at Belvedere is top notch. We also hear good things from friends who’ve done self-guided in Puglia and loved it.

Jennifer are the self guided rides through Belvedere as well?

Lizno they’ve been through various companies.

Puglia Cycle Tours. We did self guided 4 years ago. They do groups as well. They were wonderful in the planning stages and during our trip. Support van was a phone call away. Places we stayed were fabulous.

What about Bali???

Great Explorations is amazing.

Hotel Dory, Riccione. Great Bikes, people and excellent food. Also Loire Valley -France. Great rides between castles and flat

Marc thank you!!

Around Lake Constance. In France, Loire Valley. Passau to Budapest is great, too. Prague to the North Sea along the Elbe River. Puglia in Italy but not in summer as is too hot.
