Slowing down and actually seeing the countryside is the best way to explore. The history and architecture were around every curve and winding road. The castles and cathedrals are breathtaking. The meandering Danube is spellbinding. We loved the trip.

I really enjoyed the tour of Cesky Krumlov, the town guide was very knowledgeable, and the visit to the Nikolaihof winery. Lots of cool history in those places and it’s good to get to know more about them when one is in the area. It’s what makes tours of these regions complete.

Know Before You Go!

We want you to be fully prepared for your cycling vacation of a lifetime. This involves making sure that you choose the appropriate trip for you and that every aspect of your experience is flawless. Each Trek Travel trip is unique to ensure maximum enjoyment every time.

Your Trip Need to Knows:

  • Accommodations: On this trip, we stay two nights in the heart of Český Krumlov, one night in a former castle in the Austrian countryside, and two nights in the center of the medieval town of Dürnstein. These hotels are housed in historical buildings and do not have air conditioning. While the guest rooms are cozy, they are relatively smaller and less lavish than typical Trek Travel accommodations. However, we’ve selected these properties for their excellent locations and distinct historical charm.
  • Currency and credit cards: When exploring the Czech Republic, remember that the local currency is the Czech Koruna (CZK). While many places accept cards, some smaller shops and cafes are cash only. We recommend having some CZK on hand.
  • Dining: Please note that European dinners might take longer than what you are used to. This allows you to enjoy the delicious local cuisine at a leisurely pace and creates a relaxed, social atmosphere.
  • E-Bikes: E-bike speeds vary worldwide due to local regulations, which determine how fast you can ride with assistance. See the E-bike speed chart to see the maximum speeds allowed in each region.
