    Clare

    Asked on May 12th, 2025

    My wife and I am interested in the cycle tour of the Bavarian lakes. We are obviously cyclists and own bikes but is there an option to hire hybrid bikes for this tour as opposed to bring our own bikes on the aeroplane?

    Transport
    • Bestseller Reisen GmbHOperatorWritten May 2025

      Yes, you can hire bikes. Euro 150,- per hybrid cycle (21 gear, cycle bag). Euro 295,- per e-bike
