Team event Trip to the Dammühle

The Kaiser Wilhelm Monument, one of the city's most impressive sights, stands imposingly at the Deutsches Eck. The importance of the city of Koblenz for Velociped is also impressive: many Velociped cyclists are travelling along the confluence of the Moselle and Rhine rivers and the Lahn estuary south of Koblenz. Koblenz has a decisive influence on the quality of the cycle tour as a start or end point as well as during the journey along the Rhine. In this lively city, we value our cooperation with a number of long-standing hotel partners and are also delighted about new hotel openings and new collaborations with long-established Koblenz hotels. It is important to us to be able to offer a special blend of comfort, service and personalised care. Over the off-season, we have expanded our selection of hotels in Koblenz, not least by gaining new hotel partners, so it is time to visit the historic city in person again and exchange ideas with our contacts, some of whom have been with us for many years. We take an invitation to visit the SE Manon ship from SE Tours as an incentive and set off in our Velociped Sprinter towards Bad Ems-Nievern to our bicycle depot at the beginning of April. We meet our station manager Carsten there and then set off on our hotel tour from Koblenz main station.

Of course, there are a lot of interesting people and stories behind Velociped. We enjoy working as a team, taking lunch breaks together and celebrating together from time to time, and dogs are also allowed in our office. Sounds fantastic? It is! So that you can get to know us even better, we'll tell you a little about our areas of responsibility and also a little about our private hobbies. Hobby number one is, of course, cycling.

Enjoy cycling and still see everything. That's possible with Velociped! Our cycle tours are so well planned that you have enough time for the highlights - be it impressive landscapes, interesting sights, delicious culinary delights or simply relaxing by the sea or a lake and chatting to a local. Our tours take you to the most beautiful places in Germany, Europe and even overseas. Whether you prefer the sea or the mountains, want to roll along a river cycle path or test your muscles on steep climbs, we have something for you. And no matter what you choose, quality is our top priority. We have personally tested, cycled and worked out the attractive Velociped original-tours for you in detail, and the tour organiser is Velociped itself. In order to be able to offer you even more, we also have beautiful cycle tours in our programme that are organised by our local partners. These are called Velociped partner tours and are all based on very good and long-standing cooperation with tour operators who we are absolutely sure will guarantee you an all-round great cycling holiday.

Mainz, the beautiful state capital of Rhineland-Palatinate, not only offers a rich history and impressive sights, but is also the starting point for most of our cycle tours along the Rhine and is therefore very important to us. We choose our hotel partners carefully and pay particular attention to a perfect blend of comfort and service so that our cycling friends get a good first impression and feel comfortable from the start of their trip. We were last in Mainz a good four years ago to see our partner hotels, meet the contact persons in person and exchange ideas about current developments. So it was clear – we absolutely had to go back to Mainz. After a quick “good morning” in the office and checking the most important e-mails, Steffi and I set off at the end of January to visit three of our partner hotels.
