Quotes From the Field:
“We have traveled with Euro-Bike for years. Austin-Lehman added little details to enhance the experience.”

Germany - Rivers, Ramparts & Rothenburg
Ride from village to village along the Romantic Road
Medieval towns, quiet country roads, magnificent castles and charming locals set the perfect stage for your biking adventure from Nördlingen to Wertheim along Germany’s Middle Age trade route, the Romantic Road.
Begin your adventure in postcard-perfect Nördlingen, renowned for its crooked streets, half-timbered houses and 14th century town wall. Coast through pastures and fields of sunflowers and along a system of farming roads closed to four-wheeled traffic. Watch a falcon flight show at Schillingsfürst Castle and admire a Riemenschneider altarpiece on a visit to a church in Creglingen. Pedal to Rothenburg, a vibrant village boasting cliff-side gardens, an intriguing criminal museum and a rich collection of artwork, and enjoy a guided evening walk with a spirited night watchman.
In the evenings, relax in the warmth of a sauna, sip a home-brewed beer and indulge in a dinner of regional delicacies before retiring for a restful sleep in the comfort of your hotel.
