    TIP: We recommend that you do not bring your own bike if you book a return transfer by ferry. A rental bike can be conveniently left at the hotel in Porec, whereas the journey/walk from the port in Venice to the starting hotel, train station or airport with your own bikes and luggage is very difficult. In addition, there is only a very limited possibility to take bikes on the ship. Own E-Bikes are not allowed at all!

    Venice to Poréc

    fae_foto_83_2023_09_22_14_43_23_1064246372.jpg It was a good trip. We loved the Istrian countryside and the sea coast. Our concerns were: 1. All the rides were 60km+ with the exception of the ride into Portoroz. That was not clear from the description. It appeared there were different ride choices. ...

    Route stickers.

    Excellent support and great stickers to show the route at each turn. Great maps. Route in Croatia (last day) from Tar was posted with route stickers which took us to Santa Marina instead of to Poreč. Otherwise, route stickers were very helpful.
