The actual accommodation at Litomerice was very good. By comparision the hotel at Decin had reception manned all day up to late at night.

I am giving 3 stars as our first issue was how much information was provided st the last minute to our group. We were met by our host in France quite late the evening before. We were not told when she would arrive and I had to make calls back to the UK to find this out. When she did arrive it was to provide a lot of Information and maps etc that could have been given at an earlier stage so we would have has time to adequately read it. We were travelling with small children so were very time poor.
The bikes and equipment provided were of very good quality and we had no problem using them. We thoroughly enjoyed the cycling component but as mentioned we only got to cycle one day out of 3 as one of our children ended up in hospital in Epernay.
Our one other major issue was with the accomodation in Epernay. We had enjoyed a lovely nights stay in reims and the hotel was to standard however the hotel used by Freedom Treks in Epernay is of a poor standard. It has a good restaurant and breakfast was fine but the rooms were absolutely terrible. We had 2 rooms and our room was marginally better then that which our children stayed in. The bathrooms had a terrible odour which I complained about and despite them just using an air conditioner the smell returned within an hour. The rooms were damp and mouldy and had no air conditioning. We believe this contributed to our son having an asthma attack.
I intend to write an email to Freedom Treks about this.
Any contact we had with Freedom Treks prior to and during our trip was fantastic and the consultants were most helpful and friendly.

The overall review for this holiday is 3 Stars, reasons are given bellow.
First, the Excellent:
The staff at Freedom Treks have been excellent. They are engaged and interested in the customer experience. I found them to be both helpful and professional. Could not ask for better.
Next , the Good:
The hotels chosen for the holiday are on the whole very good. They are centrally located and all provided good breakfast. The rooms on the whole were good. Some of them are in attractive historical buildings.
The only bad point was the Hotel-Gasthof Hottl in Deggendorf which seems to have paper thin walls and I was able to lie and listen to another guest snoring for most of the night.
The main towns on the route : Regensburg, Straubing, Doggendorf and Passau are all very attractive.
The Ok:
This section of the Danube cycle path, in my opinion, is not very scenic. The majority of the time the cycle route is to the side of an earth bank. There are some stretches where you are cycling with a view of the river but these are few. The attached photo is a good representation of what the scene looks like. Long sections are fair bit inland.
I thought the last day, Doggendorf to Passau, was the best day.
On the first two days I did not find many places on the route to stop for food or drink without leaving the route and going into nearby towns.
I think the Passau to Vienna section is far more scenic and has far more retail opportunities.
The Bad and reason for the 3 Stars:
Freedom Treks is the holiday broker, the holiday is actually supplied by German local partner. They provide the hotels, bikes and luggage transport.
German local partner supplied me with an incorrect bike. Not the 21 gear that I paid for but a 7 gear camber brake model that I found very difficult to ride.
Making a mistake is not in itself a problem; the problem was German local partner complete refusal to correct the problem. Every request to have the bike changed was met with a ‘not possible’.
I was astounded by the total lack of customer care from this company. The fact that it was their mistake cut no ice with the ‘not possible’.
Freedom Treks tried their best and the response remained ‘not possible’. Amazing that such a company has customers. Freedom Treks did refund me the bike hire cost and I spent 3 day struggling with a machine that I hated and I am sure clouded my enjoyment of the holiday.

Leider war dann bei der Reise in Istrien das Kartenmaterial mäßig bis falsch. an einem Tag passte Karte und Beschreibung überhaupt nicht zusammen und auch fehlten an entscheidenden Stellen (Weggabelung, Verzweigung) Kleber oder Anweisungen (rechts oder links). Wir haben uns mit GPS geholfen.
Das Hotel Vila Lili war leider sehr schlecht. Die Leute waren unfreundlich, sprachen weder Englisch noch Deutsch. Die Armaturen im Bad waren sanierungsbedürftig, das Fernsehen funktionierte nicht.....
Das Gepäck kam immer rechtzeitig an.
