Delightful River Cruise and Bicycle riding
Well organized, the tour was great fun and well balanced . We rode through super scenic and serene bike paths long side hills of grape vines parallel to the Danube. Then through cities, including Budapest and Vienna with wonderful museums and historical sights. The routes were well planned, and the daily briefing helped us feel comfortable without a guide. The route guide in the app was good when it worked, but gps signal faded in and out,making it less useful than I had hoped. We got "lost" from the planned route, but just follow the river, and you can’t get really lost! There was always ample time to ride leisurely or to explore villages along the way.
The boat (Swiss Crown) and staff were superb. Cabins were very nice, the lounge was welcoming, the cake addictive! Meals were very well done, the chef was excellent (although I wished for more ample vegetable servings rather than a garnish). We spent extra days in hotels in Passau at the beginning and Munich at the end of the tour. The breakfast buffet on the boat spoiled us,,,far better than either hotel’s breakfast.
This was my first experience with an E bike (a pinched nerve induced me to try it). I found the bike top heavy and awkward at slow speed, but whenever I approached a hill, I just pushed the next power level and kept the same pedal cadence without extra effort on my part. (There were 3 power levels, but the 3rd didn’t seem to add much...fortunately, 1 & 2 were adequate for any hills we encountered).
All in all, a wonderful well executed trip.
