I have traveled with Butterfield & Robinson on 4 trips and without exception, they have provided a luxury, cultural, educational active trip experience with amazing “can do” guides.

I have been on two trips with B&R. Their attention to detail and interest in making sure everyone has a good time is exceptional. The other travelers have been interesting and friendly.

Great trip, wonderful guide. Wish we had spent a little more time walking thru cities rather than the areas inbetween but loved the trip anyway. (Walking tour of Italian !akes.) hotels and meals were absolutely the greatest.

We have tried other companies and BNR is the best. The quality of the trips in general, when coupled with the expertise of the guides, is outstanding

I had a great experience on my B&R biking river cruise. I am 82 and was somewhat anxious about my ability to keep up. The suggested preparation was perfect and the trip plan was wonderful. I of course loved fellow cyclists and our very superior guides. I will do it again and recommend the experience.

Wonderful guides who are well-informed, super-organized and always entertaining. Brilliantly designed trips and best of all the biking or hiking allows us to enjoy eating at the best restaurants wherever we are!

B & R do every aspect of a trip extremely well.

Reply from Butterfield & Robinson
B & R is the best. We’ve used two other bike touring companies and B & R is always a step up from the others. One of the better features of B & R is the locations they go to and the way they setup their tours. We been on 14 tours, 5 with B & R and they are the best. We’ve moved up to B & R and totally see the difference in quality.

May be a modest premium to others, like Backroads , but entirely worth it. Seamless coordination, everything covered as advertised.Experienced , accommodating guides , great venue side trips/avtibities .very good coordination w/trip planners for bespoke trips. Backroads very inconsistent and unreliable in these aspects. Backroads “bespoke” is a canned trip for a private party.Underwhelming in comparison.

In 17 bike trips in 17 years, B&R has never disappointed. We treasure our memories of every trip.

I have traveled extensively with Butterfield and continue to travel with them. I love the immersion experience in the countries that I choose to travel to and the guides are professional and prepared for any and everything. I love how they make you feel like friends. Their knowledge is crazy perfect and they share it easily. I am headed to Iran and Lebanon in 2019. I am older and feel very comfortable with my travels.

I just finished my 28th trip with B & R.
What a great outfitter. We they have a secret way to select their guides as they are all excellent. This company changed my life as they have taken me places that I would not have gone on my own. If B & R think it is safe that is good enough for me.
There are not enough stars to give them.

Our Normandy bike trip was amazing. Every detail was taken care of by B&R. Nothing was let to chance. Great food, great wine, beautiful scenery and fantastic support. Our guides, Sigrid and Gerardo were wonderful. Truly the most amazing experience of our life.

Our trip was absolutely fantastic thanks to our guides Alessio and Roberto.
The lunches that they planned were amazing and they worked very hard to make each meal very special.
On the road they helped out and checked up on us frequently.
We could not of had a better 11th B&R trip. Hotels and routes were fine.

With Butterfield and Robinson every angle is thought out ahead of time, from our arrival at the destination airport to our departure time at the end. The active experiences are exhilarating and totally appropriate to our varied age group within the family. The guides were just the best! They were fun, knowledgeable, great with adults and kids alike, and no request was too much for them. They just seemed to love their jobs, and had endless infectious energy! Hotels are always delightful and the meals, of course, irresistible! I would recommend B&R to anyone!

Biking at tulip time with B&R was a wonderful way to explore Holland. Highly recommended. A great way to celebrate a special birthday.

Reply from Butterfield & Robinson
We have traveled with B&R 10 times over the past dozen years. We have never been disappointed. The travel experience is always unique and first class. The guides have always made every trip special and memorable.

Reply from Butterfield & Robinson
The perfect trip to celebrate some milestone life events and family time. Not only was the French countryside gorgeous and the cycling perfect our two guides - Chris and Tatianna- went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, safe and in short pampered. Every detail from the food to the entertainment was carefully thought out and of the highest calibre. We loved it and are already looking to book our next bike trip with Butterfield and Robinson. Both my husband and I count it among the best vacations we have ever had.
