Dolce Tempo Journey from Germany to the Czech Republic
You could spend a lifetime exploring the twisting streets of Prague and Berlin. But then you’d miss the countryside. The winding bike paths through ancient pine forests. The opulent Prussian palaces and quaint Czech villages. The vineyards and delicious country food. The smiling locals, picturesque town centers and lively beer halls. Two or three lifetimes might do it—but a week is a good place to start.
Highlights
- Explore the German and Czech countryside by e-bike, from dense pine forests to valleys carpeted with vineyards, and from quaint towns to the bustling bike paths of Berlin
- Engage your senses while toasting the local culture with delectable beverages—from outstanding Elbe Valley Rieslings to some of the best beer in the world
- Learn about the history of these two stately nations—from Prussia's kings and the Dukes of Saxony to World War II and Czechoslovakia’s Velvet Revolution
- Enjoy the restrained style and tasteful luxury at the hotels and restaurants that welcome us here, from baroque castle-hotels to chic vineyards and world-class spa retreats

What's Included

We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
Germans are not only known for their passion for beer, but also for bikes. And that love of bikes has created an amazing labyrinth of bike paths and routes that extend throughout the country. Many of the paths we utilize on this trip are the equivalent of scenic byways, linking quaint villages and big cities alike. While we are on bike paths in larger cities, be prepared for the occasional rush of local riders as they commute and run errands. These wonderful bike paths are refreshingly car-free, which means that there are stretches of limited van support, although you'll still be supported by leaders on bikes. Although most of the paths are smooth and paved, there are some sections of interlocking bricks, gravel, cobblestone and hard-packed dirt that can be muddy during downpours.
Hotel Zur Bleiche Resort & Spa is a Premiere Hotel housed in a beautiful historic building. While it offers outstanding service and amenities including a fabulous spa, libraries and restaurants, please note that it is not equipped with wi-fi or air-conditioning. Despite the region's generally temperate climate and cool nights, guestrooms can occasionally become warm during peak temperatures. We’re confident that you’ll find these quirks worthwhile for the delight of unplugging at this unique and enchanting property.
