Self guided / individual or guided tours?

  

Self guided - individual Tour
Self-guided bike tours have become increasingly popular because of their flexibility and independence. They cost less than guided bicycle tours but still maintain a level of support and convenience that allows you to explore on your own schedule without sweating the logistics.
Those tours come with everything you need to make for an adventure-filled and rewarding holiday; accommodation, luggage transfer where required, an informative pre-departure pack, turn-by-turn route notes, destination guides and detailed maps and/or GPS tracks which follow carefully planned itineraries on the best routes.
You will be able to use the information provided to cycle independently and to repair any flat tire or handle minor emergencies on your own.
Although you will be travelling independently, our local teams are there to support you and are only a phone call away in in the event of a serious mechanical breakdown or emergency or in case you need any assistance during your trip.

     
 

Guided Tour
You enjoy traveling with a group of 10-20 cyclists, meeting new people, having the expertise of a local guide and structured daily schedule. Our guide points out places of interest, organizes excursions and activities and is available in case of breakdowns (mechanical or human).

 

Ability - Level / Difficulty

When selecting our cycling routes, we pay special attention to the criteria of enjoyment and tranquility. You should enjoy your cycling vacation (and this does not only mean the physical well-being) and experience nature at a leisurely pace, without stress and fuss.


Many routes are also very suitable for cycling beginners and children. We also do not expect any physical peak performance... 


To help you a bit in deciding which bike tour is right for you, we have divided all bike tours into 5 levels. Our comfortable electric bikes offer additional support and safety. You can switch the motor on or off.

   Level 1 - Relaxed cyclist
Mainly flat, no climbs; little fitness required; plenty of time available at a leisurely pace.
     
  Level 2 - Recreational cyclist 
Slightly hilly, only a few climbs, some strength and endurance advantageous; average cycling speed.
     
  Level 3 - Touring cyclist
Challenging ground, with climbs as a small challenge and descents to catch your breath; good condition and cycling technique required; sporty riding style.

Rental or private bicycle?

All our touring rental bikes are hybride bikes provided with a minimum of one (sometimes two) panniers (saddlebags) to carry things such as a change of clothes /according to weather changes or for visiting museums etc., food and beverages for a break along the way or photographic equipment.
Our bikes are also equipped with an odometer, a pump and a repair kit in order to fix flat tyres and to do other basic repairs.

Detailed descriptions of the available bikes can be found directly on the respective tour page. Of course you can also bring your own bike with you on most bike tours. For bike & boat tours please check capacity as space is limited.  Inform yourself in advance about necessary reservations in public transport.

   E-Bikes / PedelecsElectrically assisted bikes can be provided for those who love to cycle but who find it increasingly difficult to either master the terrain or the distance. E-bikes are not motorized, but have a battery which enables you to pedal with ease. It has been described as similar to having a constant tail wind at your back. Electric bikes are not designed for those who have no cycling experience. They are heavier than normal bikes and you need to have a good balance and control.

Unfortunately, we do not (yet) offer road bike tours. However, a few MTB tours are already available.

How do I get to the starting point of my trip?

Unless otherwise stated, you are responsible for your own arrival and departure. Whether by car, train, bus or plane - we will be happy to help you with the planning and organization.

 

You can easily get to most of the starting points of our European tours by train. Find your connections and tickets conveniently through our partner Rail Europe.

Book European train journeys with Rail Europe

 

Many airlines offer convenient travel at very reasonable prices. Unfortunately, we can no longer keep up with the worldwide competition of low-cost carriers and their low, daily consumer prices. We therefore recommend that you book your flights directly online using one of the flight search engines.

 

Here you will find alternatives to extra nights at the start or end of your cycle tour. Extra nights at the start or end hotel of your cycle tour can of course also be booked directly through us.

If you wish to travel by car, you will receive detailed information about the respective parking facilities with your travel documents or you will find this information in the section "useful" directly for the respective tour.

How does the luggage transfer works ?

Most of the cycling tours have included the luggage transport. Cycle free and unencumbered with only your day pack of essentials.
Your baggage will be transferred to your next accommodation and will usually arrive before you do. In the morning you will drop overnight bags (one per person) in a designated area in your hotel.
Your travel information will advise you of any weight limits or restrictions you should be aware.

The organizer reserves the right to change the accommodation according to the occupancy.

3. Cancellation and termination by RAD + REISEN
3.1 Should a tour be cancelled for reasons beyond our control (strike, natural disaster, etc.) or should the specified minimum number of participants for a trip fail to be attained, RAD + REISEN shall be entitled to withdraw from the tour contract in accordance with the following provisions.
3.2 RAD + REISEN shall be obliged to immediately notify the tour participant of cancellation of the tour where it is certain that the tour cannot take place for the above reasons.

3.4 Effected payments shall be the subject of immediate reimbursement. No further claims shall exist here, in particular as regards the reimbursement of cancellation costs for flights, train tickets, accommodation before/after the tour, etc. which have already been booked. We therefore recommend booking flights, etc. only when it is certain that the required tour will take place.

4. Services and Prices
4.1. The scope of the services, which RAD + REISEN GmbH is obliged to perform, is set out in the contents of the booking confirmation in association with the catalogue or cruise description valid at the time of the cruise, subject to all the information and explanations contained therein, including any individual agreements.
4.2. Connecting journeys by train/coach/plane must be organised and booked by the customer himself. Upon request, RAD + REISEN GmbH is prepared to act as an agent for arranging such connecting journeys.
4.3. Any concessions arising from the age of the customer shall be based on the customer’s age on the date of the start of the cruise.


5. Changes to contractual content before the start of the trip that do not affect the travel price
5.1 Deviations in essential characteristics of the travel services from the agreed content of the travel contract which were not caused by RAD + REISEN GmbH in bad faith and which become necessary after the conclusion of the contract shall be permitted vis-à-vis RAD + REISEN GmbH before the start of travel if the deviations are not of major significance and do not impair the overall nature of the trip booked.
5.2. RAD + REISEN GmbH is obliged to clearly and comprehensibly inform the customer of changes to services immediately after it becomes aware of the reason for such on a durable medium (e.g. also by email, text message or voice message) in a manner that highlights the change. In the event of a significant change to an essential characteristic of a travel service or a deviation from the customer’s particular specifications that have been included in the travel contract, Section 651g BGB applies. If the change affects the content of the travel contract, the customer shall be entitled, within a suitable period set by RAD + REISEN GmbH, at the same time as communication of the change to either accept the change, cancel the travel contract without charge or request a place on a substitute trip if RAD + REISEN GmbH has offered such a trip. The customer may choose to respond, or not respond, to the communication from RAD + REISEN GmbH. If the customer responds to RAD + REISEN GmbH, he/she may either agree to the change, request a place on a substitute trip if such has been offered or cancel the contract free of charge. If the customer does not respond to RAD + REISEN GmbH at all or within the period set, the communicated change shall be deemed to have been accepted. RAD + REISEN GmbH will draw the customer’s attention to this fact in the communication regarding the service change in accordance with 4.2 in a clear, comprehensible manner that highlights the change.
5.3. Any warranty claims shall remain unaffected insofar as the changed services are deficient. RAD + REISEN GmbH is obliged to inform the customer about deviations from services without delay. In the event of significant deviations in the travel services from the agreed content of the travel contract before the start of the trip, the customer shall be entitled to cancel the contract. Following the communication from RAD + REISEN GmbH, the customer shall be obliged to assert this cancellation right without delay.
 

6. Liability and limitations of liability
6.1 RAD + REISEN shall be liable in the framework of the duty of care incumbent on a prudent businessman for diligent preparation of the tour, careful selection and monitoring of the service providers, in addition to the correctness of the descriptions of services applicable for the tour period at the time the catalogue is printed.
6.2 The participation in tours is at the tour participant’s own risk. Minors may only take part in a tour where accompanied by an authorised guardian.
6.3 Every tour participant shall be personally responsible for ensuring that he is in sufficiently good health to satisfy the requirements of the tour. The information relating to the physical requirements for the tour are given to the best of our knowledge and belief, albeit without any guarantee. Where a tour participant is unable to satisfy the physical requirements for a standard tour, he shall bear the sole responsibility in this regard.
6.4 The tour participant shall likewise bear responsibility for compliance with the road traffic regulations.
6.5 All means of transport (coach, ship, aircraft, etc.) shall be subject to the terms and conditions of carriage of the relevant transport company.
6.6 Should it be necessary to make a change in the tour route (e.g. due to the weather conditions, for reasons of safety, etc.) during the tour, this shall not give rise to any entitlement to a reduction in the tour price. In the case of tours by ship sections of the route may also be travelled by coach where necessary in nautical/technical terms. In the case of group tours and tours by ship the decision regarding a change in route should be solely incumbent on the tour escort or the captain of the ship.
6.7 Should a scheduled visit fail to take place for a reason beyond our control (e.g. conversion / renovation work, etc.), we cannot be held responsible in this regard.
6.8 Should damage occur which has been solely caused by a service provider selected by ourselves or which has not been caused by ourselves through intent or gross negligence, our liability – on whatever legal grounds – shall be limited to three times the price of the tour.
6.9 Should any loss of or damage to your luggage come about, we shall only be liable where this has been caused by ourselves and we are immediately informed following its occurrence. This shall however also be limited to a maximum of 200.- euros per person. We accept no liability whatsoever for items which are not normally contained in luggage, for means of payment of any nature, for cosmetic damage and damage to handles and castors or for damage to baggage items whose total weight exceeds 20 kg. We recommend taking out comprehensive travel insurance for such risks.
6.10 Liability for the Customer’s own bicycles is excluded. Where RAD + REISEN is responsible for transporting the Customer’s own bicycles, any resulting claims for compensation due to damage, loss or theft shall be excluded except where RAD + REISEN is accountable due to intent or gross negligence.
6.11 Our liability for damage of whatever nature shall be limited to instances of intent or gross negligence.

7. Adjustment of prices
RAD + REISEN reserves the right to change the price agreed in the travel contract accordingly in the event of an increase in VAT rates, transport costs or charges for certain services, such as port or airport charges or a change in the exchange rates applicable to the tour in question.
7.1 If the transport costs existing at the time of conclusion of the travel contract, in particular the fuel costs, increase, RAD + REISEN GmbH shall be entitled to increase the tour price in accordance with the following calculation: 
a) In the event of an increase related to the seat, RAD + REISEN GmbH may demand the amount of the increase from the customer. 
b) In other cases the additional transportation costs demanded by the transportation company per means of transportation shall be divided by the number of seats of the agreed means of transportation. RAD + REISEN GmbH shall be entitled to demand the resulting increase for the individual seat from the Customer. 
7.2 If the taxes, port or airport charges existing at the time of conclusion of the travel contract are increased vis-à-vis RAD + REISEN, the tour price may be increased by the corresponding proportionate amount.
7.3 An increase shall only be permissible insofar as the circumstances leading to the increase had not yet occurred prior to conclusion of the contract and could not have been foreseen by RAD + REISEN at the time of conclusion of the contract. In the event of a subsequent change in the tour price RAD + REISEN shall inform the customer without delay. Price increases from the 20th day prior to commencement of travel shall be invalid. In the event of price increases of more than 8%, the customer shall be entitled to withdraw from the travel contract without incurring any charges or to demand participation in a trip of at least equivalent value if RAD + REISEN is in a position to offer such a trip from its range of services at no additional cost to the customer. The Client shall assert this claim against RAD + REISEN without undue delay after being notified of the price increase.
7.4 RAD + REISEN shall be obliged to pass on price reductions to the Customer by applying the above clauses accordingly.

8. Warranty
8.1 Redress: Where the tour has not been carried out in accordance with the terms of contract, the Customer may seek redress. Compliance with the terms of contract shall be firstly determined by the description of services and secondly, also by the local customs and practices of the country of destination. RAD + REISEN may refuse to provide redress where this would incur disproportionately high costs; it shall however be entitled to offer redress in the form of substitute performance of equal or higher value. The Customer shall only be entitled to refuse such substitute performance for reasons considered to constitute good cause in objective terms. Any request for redress shall be addressed either directly to ourselves or to the local tour leader. The tour leader shall not however be authorised to allow such claims.
8.2 Discount on tour price: For the duration of the failure to carry out the tour in accordance with the terms of contract until redress is provided by RAD + REISEN, the Customer may on his return from the tour submit a written request for an appropriate reduction in the tour price (discount). The discount shall not apply where and so far as the tour participant fails through his own negligence to notify the parties specified in item 7.1 of the shortcoming in a timely manner to enable same to provide redress.
8.3 Any claims must be submitted to ourselves at the latest one month after the scheduled end of the tour according to the terms of contract.

9.2 With any disruption in performance the tour participant shall be obliged to make all reasonable efforts to help rectify the disruption and to minimise or avoid any damage resulting therefrom. The Customer shall in particular be obliged to immediately notify the party specified in item 8.1 of his complaints. This party shall be charged to ensure redress as far as this is possible. Where the Customer fails through his own negligence to issue notification of a shortcoming, no entitlement to a discount shall come into being.
