Cycle, discover, enjoy

There is so much to discover. Whether in Germany, Europe or overseas: be inspired by the many different cycle tour regions. Whether along picturesque rivers, through impressive landscapes or past cultural highlights – here you will find cycle tours for every taste. Comfortable accommodation, reliable luggage transport and an all-round carefree service make every tour a relaxed experience.

Germany, the cycling country

There is hardly any other country where cycling is so good: Germany has thousands of kilometres of well-developed cycle paths. The signposting is excellent - with kilometre markings and an indication of the next town - the cycle routes have logos and are almost always asphalted.
The river cycle paths are particularly popular for Velociped tours, e.g. along the MoselleLahn, Danube, Main or Rhine. Here you usually cycle leisurely downhill to lots of culture.
You can also cycle close to the water around lakes such as the beautiful Lake Constance, the blue Chiemsee or the Munich lakes.
Not to forget: There are also coastal cycle paths! Along the North Sea and Baltic Sea or across the East Frisian Islands, you can cycle along the sea and enjoy the fresh breeze.
Many regions or themes can also be travelled by bike: In Münsterland, for example, the castles beckon. Cycle around Berlin or embark on star bike tours from German cities.
Or simply indulge in culinary delights and choose your Velociped tour to suit your taste: to the Palatinate wine region, to the Black Forest for cherry cake, to Thuringia for grilled sausage. The variety is limitless!

Europe's diversity

Europe from north to south, from east to west, from the North Cape to Sicily, from Lisbon to the Danube delta: here you have an almost unbelievable variety of cycle routes, cultures and landscapes to choose from. You just have to decide:
Are you more into the south? In Italy, you can cycle through Tuscany and Puglia or along the Alpe-Adria cycle path to the Mediterranean. In France, you can cycle through Provence and see the purple sea of lavender. In Croatia, there are Velociped tours that lead along the blue Mediterranean. In Slovenia, you can cycle along disused railway lines, and in Greece you can cross the islands in the Mediterranean or visit the Peloponnese.
North? Travel to the exciting Baltic States by bike or to Denmark with the wonderful island of Bornholm and Copenhagen, the ultimate bike city. Belgium and the Netherlands entice you with historic cities, dikes and windmills. You will also be thrilled by Sweden, where you can cycle from Helsingborg to Gothenburg along the sea.
East? In PolandRomania, the Czech Republic and Hungary, you will find plenty of interesting Velociped cycle routes to places steeped in history and to beautiful natural sites.
West? Then Portugal on the roaring Atlantic is your thing, where we have a wide range of routes on offer.
Centre? Perhaps you would like to visit the quaint Alpine republics of Switzerland and Austria by bike. Don't worry, you don't have to cycle up the mountains, you just have a view of them. 
You'll be almost dizzy when you make your selection. Now you just have to pick something. Have fun and look forward to it!

bike and boat

Your floating hotel is always with you: a ship on which you spend the night in a cabin. During the day you may cycle alongside, or the ship will be ahead of you or behind you. But it will certainly be waiting for you again in the late afternoon or evening at a landing stage or in a harbour, to which you will cycle as a stage destination. Wheel on board and off to the captain's dinner! This makes the cycle tour a relaxed bike trip, because it saves you a) carrying your luggage on your bike and b) the daily packing and unpacking as with route tours. You are sure to enjoy ‘la dolce Vita’ on the ship. And if you don't feel like cycling or just find it so nice on board, then skip a stage and stay on the boat!
