Fantastic way to experience Germany

Our bike tour from Bad Wimpfen to Koblenz was a wonderful experience. The staff on the boat were pleasant, helpful and always wanting to make sure we were well taken care of. The Patria is an older boat yet served us well. The only negative comments I have are: 1) There was an unpleasant odor in our room on the lower level. One got accustomed to it however it was always there when we walked in the room. 2) The dining room on the lower level got quite warm during dinner. They have fans but a few times it was uncomfortable. The bikes were good, comfortable and perfect for our trip. The scenery was fabulous and the many small towns we biked through made us appreciate the beauty of the Rhine valley. Most of our biking was on cycle paths, some paved and other compacted gravel. The signage along the way was well marked and we only took a few minor detours by accident. A couple of times we had to bike along side of traffic but those times were rare. I will definitely recommend this trip to my friends. We would also like to do another boat and bike trip as we really enjoyed this one.
