The highlight of our trip! We all had a wonderful time and the views were incredible! Anton is a great guide- he made sure all of us felt comfortable and took awesome pictures for us. The e-bikes made it easy to enjoy the scenery without getting tired from peddling!
Excellent route, well planned, go outside fields and mountain, perfect bicycle electric assisted, and a great guide (person) knowledge and safe ride . Did extremely enjoy and recommend
Amazing experience!! An incredible way to see the city and to ride up into the mountains. The landscape and surroundings are almost surreal and you get to visit the ruins is a castle and the center of a historic small town. Anton will be your guide and he is knowledgeable, fun, and a great all around guide. Would do this again and again if we could!
Had a great ride around Innsbruck and Hall Tirol! Anton was a great guide and had some fun facts and jokes to share. The ebikes are great too, easy to be adjusted to your skill level.
Anton was great. Tour and information was very informative and we saw a lot of Innsbruck and surrounding areas. We would definitely recommend this tour!
Amazing bike tour of Innsbruck and Hall. Anton was great at giving directions for using the e-bike and trails. The views were spectacular and I loved every minute of this adventure!! Well worth the time and money spent. Yes, the bike rental is extra, but that was communicated beforehand and we were prepared.
First the boring, but hopefully helpful information .... My family (two two teens and two adults) LOVED the tour with Anton. Days before our tour, he made sure to contact us to verify heights so that we had the proper sized bikes and gave us a heads up on what to bring and wear. We were set to meet up with him in the morning and he was ready and waiting for us with the bikes and helmets. After making sure our helmets fit and our bike seats were properly adjusted to our heights, he gave us some safety tips and asked some questions to gauge our experience levels. Quick. Efficient. Thorough. We were off biking shortly thereafter with some stops at locations to give us a heads up about the path ahead or insight into what to look for in the upcoming terrain. He had a well thought out route and was quick to offer to take pictures of our family at the sights. He was very relaxed and let us go at our own pace. His knowledge of the area and the history of some of the sights was excellent. He tailored the rate at which we rode to our levels, keeping it at just the right level of challenge and leisure. Now, here is the most important part of the review. BOTH of my teenagers said the tour was great and that Anton was a wonderful guide. They hate tours. They dislike waking up early. Yet, after we turned our bikes in and asked how it went, they both smiled and said it was fun and thought Anton did a tremendous job of keeping it fun and showing them cool places. My wife and I had a great time, too 😁 Definitely worth the price and we highly recommend.
Nothing says, “a racket” like a €136 bike tour… that DOESN’T include the bike! Unreal! I suggest a paraglide tour in its place. They include the paraglide.
Thank you for your review. It is stated in the tour description that the eBike rental is an extra cost. That is up to you to read the full description before booking. Once you booked, I sent you a message stating that the bike rental is an extra cost. I also said that if the extra cost is an issue to cancel the tour. Did you read the message I sent? Probably not: When you book as 1 person the tour is more expensive. When you book with more than 1 person, then the tour is cheaper. This tour is 3-4 hours. Paragliding is 1 hour at best. More than 99% of my guests enjoy the tour and realise there is an extra cost. Next time you book a tour on this site, the tour operator might send you a message with more info, I suggest you read the messages!
Anton was a fantastic guide. The views on the tour are spectacular. Is very organized and informational and personable. The E Mtn bikes are excellent and well maintained. Super fun!!
All I can say was that Anton was a fantastic tour guide. Our family of four was very well taken care of, with great bicycles and excellent instructions. Anton took us around Innsbruck for some quick highlights and then high into the mountain forest for some great views of the surrounding scenery and Innsbruck from above. Visiting the ruined castle was great as many people don't get to see it. The stop in Hall for some refreshments was a nice break in the middle. Anton was great with commentary and history of the sights. He managed the tour group very well. Would very much recommend him and the tour.
