We
offer two types of cycling vacation:
1.Guided
bicycle tour –
the traditional tour,
offering
the most comfort in terms
of organization,
and excellent
guides for the route.
2.Self-guided
bicycle tour –
offers much
greater
flexibility. You don‘t have
to compete
with anybody, or try to catch up when some point
of interest lures you to spend more time there.
Everything else, though, is prearranged so that you
can properly enjoy your flexibility.
More
about Central Europe Bicycle Tours:
Topbicycle is
a brand name of Greenways Travel Club, which has
arranged active
vacations and special interest tours along
the Vienna-Prague Greenways
since 1996. Our
main programs are Central Europe bicycle tours for
small guided groups
and individuals. We
offer cycling vacations in the Czech Republic, Slovakia,
Hungary, Poland, Germany
and
Austria. We specialize in self-guided bicycle tours in Central Europe
with
comprehensive
navigation and details of local services - we live here after
all!
Topbicycle
is different:
We concentrate exclusively on Central and Eastern Europe. We
don’t offer other
destinations. We simply organize tours in the
place we know best - where we live. We have
been developing our
tours, based on a detailed local
knowledge
of our
region, since 1996.
Our carefully
planned self-guided tours are ideal for individual
cyclists. Navigate with
ease using English route descriptions,
detailed maps and precise GPS satellite navigation.
Efficient
stand-by support via cellphone, selected accommodation, smooth
luggage transfer
and TREK bikes complete the tour. Choose the
most convenient time for your cycling trip
and we will arrange
it for you.
Our
TREK bikes come in all sizes and we have men's and
women's frames. This makes for
a perfect fit on your ride.
We take good
care of our bikes because we believe a quality bike
is the cornerstone
of a quality ride.
Our
strategy is to use only, local guides on our guided tours. This
means, people who
know a lot about their country, and
have lived through the incredible changes that Central
and Eastern European countries have faced over the years.
We
listen to your feedback. We improve our tours based
on people’s suggestions and
recommendations. The feedback and
experience gathered since 1996 is reflected in our
tours.
A
lot of our guests are from North America and Australia and
it is our pleasure to
provide for this level of service and
expectation.

More
about bicycle tours in Central Europe:
All
our bicycle tours in Central Europe (we Czechs much prefer
using the term Central
Europe rather than Eastern Europe - probably the legacy of communism) begin
and end
in major cities or capitals that are great destinations in and of themselves.
This system makes it easier to begin the trail, and allow you to combine your
bicycle tour
with a stay in the city at the beginning or the end. For more accomplished
bikers the
routes can be combined into a challenging super-tour going through five major
cities of
Central Europe (Dresden - Prague - Vienna - Budapest - Cracow).
Six
reasons to cycle in Central and Eastern Europe:
• Excellent network of paved backroads. These
roads with little traffic connect
picturesque towns and villages
with historical
monuments to make a cycling paradise.
• Beautiful
medieval castles and chateaux. The surprising density
of palaces and royal
residences is perfect for lovers of
history and Old Europe.
• Variety
of landscape. It is refreshing to see the countryside
change while cycling - from
deep forests, through lake and wetlands
to highlands, river valleys and wine country.
• Easy
access to Central Europe. All our bicycle tours
begin and end in major cities or
capitals. There are international
airports in Prague,
Vienna, Budapest, and Bratislava.
• Quality
accommodation and sophisticated services. Since the
fall of Communism in
1989, the level of service has greatly improved
to satisfy even the discerning traveler.
•
Compact "human" dimensions are well suited for cycling
and walking tours. Easily
cover the distances between
towns, and get to know the towns, villages, and countryside
of Central Europe up close.
