Explore Split by bike, from Diocletian’s Palace and the Riva to Marjan Park, with local guides, city views, and an optional e-bike upgrade.
“Darla, our tour guide from Red Adventures was very informative and gave us a great tour of Marianne forest, old Town and Split in general. I had an e-bike while my husband chose to work a bit harder on a normal mountain bike, so we were both comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our 3 or so hours in the bike”
Cycle Pula’s seafront to caves, beaches, and cliffs, with swimming, snorkeling, photos, and a small-group guide-led adventure.
“Really enjoyed the bike ride - good mountain bikes provided. Our guide was very knowledgeable & interesting. He rode at our pace and looked after us very well . Definitely the evening was the best time to do this.”
Review of Zagreb Highlights Bike Tour, covering key sights, guides, route, value, practical tips, and who will enjoy this 2.5-hour ride.
“Loved our bike tour with Bruno. I scheduled our trip on the wrong day but Bruno very graciously rescheduled for the next morning. A great way to see the city in the short amount of time we had for Zagreb. Gave us some great suggestions for our trip to PlitviceP. So per his suggestions we got off the beaten path and ate at a wonderful place. Thank you Bruno for a great tour! D. Collins”
Explore Zagreb by bike on a relaxed small-group tour covering historic sights, local stories, coffee or ice cream, and practical city tips.
“Our city tour with Sandro was great. He provided us with so much Zagreb history with some comedy thrown in. There was a stop for a sweet treat (ice cream, coffee or juice) at a local place and since I'm not super athletic (or graceful for that matter) we were able to walk to get up the couple hills we encountered. I hit a bump early on in the trip and the owner showed up almost immediately to provide a replacement bike. I enjoyed this more than I think I would have a walking tour as you get to see more of the city...”
Ride Hvar by pedal-assist e-bike to lavender villages, quiet beaches, Stari Grad, and Spanish Fortress at your own pace.
“Family of 4 with boys ages 15 & 17 and had a great time! Got a workout in, saw beautiful scenery and off the path towns. Stopped at a winery. Took the long route to Stari Grad. Turbo mode on the bike is very helpful when going uphill. We used Tour or Eco mode to get in more exercise. Love that we had the bikes all day and were able to explore on our own!”
Cycle Hvar through Stari Grad Plain, Vrboska, Jelsa, vineyards, and olive groves, ending with local wine, cheese, and family hospitality.
“Grgo was an amazing tour guide around the island. I really loved the ride along Jelsa as being in Hvar I’d never have thought to visit here. When I’m back again to Hvar I’ll be sure to use Nstural Hvar Tours again.”
Cycle through Split’s old town, Marjan Hill, and Sustipan on a scenic 3-hour tour with sea views, history, and helpful local guides.
“My partner was sick and was not able to make it. we were in a cruise with my Daughter and her Husband I asked then to take our place. We went and they accommodated by adding one to our reservation. The best thing was that they did not realize we were expecting Electric Bikes. After a quick phone call they figured it out and it was a reasonable extra fee. They brought us in the most beautiful park we had ever seen. They showed us how beautiful and wonderful Split was. They have us a lesson on the castle and how the city evolved and expanded. My son iin laws…”
Review of Dubrovnik’s small-group e-bike tour through Konavle, with historic stops, local sweets, wine, gourmet snacks, pickup, and practical tips.
“Mislav was our tour guide who also picked us up. He is very passionate about both his country and cycling. He gives us much information about the history of his country. The E-bike is very easy to ride and handle. The road way was slightly unnerving on the busy streets but Mislav was pretty protective and very safe for all of us. We saw much of the area outside of the city walls which was a good change of pace. The only negative is from the description of the tour. It is not a wine tasting. you are offered either white or red wine at lunch.”
See Zagreb by bike in 150 minutes, from Dolac Market and Stone Gate to lesser-known monuments, with a local English-speaking guide.
“Alina was a great tour guide, we learned a lot about the history of Zagreb,”
Review of Omiš’s Cetina River water bike safari, with practical tips on timing, effort, safety, price, guides, and canyon views.
“We chose to do these water bikes because we’d not done anything like this before and the experience was very different! The views of the river and canyon are a must see and we thought these bikes would be more fun than a standard boat trip. Ivan provided drinks and snacks and stayed behind while Dino was very informative and accompanied on a boat. We chose to do the 5 o’clock tour as the 2 o’clock would have been too hot and this was a good decision. I will say though, the pedalling can become hard work especially after the hour mark. There is a break half way through but…”
Cycle Korcula’s hills and vineyards to two Lumbarda wineries for Grk, Posip, local food, sea views, and an easy return transfer.
“The bike ride through town, the countryside vineyards and olive trees was lovely. The winery owners were very personable, with very good wine and beautiful views of Lumbarda and the bay. John was a great guide and very fun. We enjoyed the entire experience!”
Review of Dubrovnik’s Elaphite Islands kayak and bike tour, with ferry rides, island cycling, sea views, lunch tips, and practical advice.
“There was no tour and Viator never even acknowledge it was cancelled Only the tour guide messaged us. We also have not received a refund.”
Ride an e-bike through Konavle Valley from Dubrovnik, visit a monastery and old mill, then enjoy gourmet food and local wine.
“Great trip with fantastic guide, Mislav. Everything was well and professionally organised. Good lunch at local restaurant.”
Cycle through rural Konavle, visit a UNESCO necropolis and Sokol fortress, then finish with local wine and cheese near Dubrovnik.
“It was fantastic. We enjoyed the biking with Yuri. The bikes are well maintained & it’s mostly downhill. The countryside was so beautiful & we enjoyed the cultural stops. The winery was also very special as the settling was idyllic. The wine was quite good & we enjoyed meeting the sommelier. I am so glad we were able to have the experience in rural Croatia.”
Ride Cape Kamenjak from Pula, with dinosaur tracks, sea views, Safari Bar, cliff caves, swimming, and a small-group guide.
“Predrag was an excellent guide explaining anything we asked and giving lots of tips. The cycle ride was fairly hard and more for intermediate to advanced fitness levels but nevertheless an excellent tour and highly recommend”
Water, stone, table and trail — the best of each.
