Since 2003 we have been providing adventure excellence tailored to you.

Self Guided Cycling Holidays

One of the most fulfilling ways to discover all a country has to offer is by taking a self guided cycling holiday. UK trips are immensely popular, whether it is cycling the route of Hadrian's Wall, or discovering a world of whisky and outstanding scenery on our Scottish Island Hopscotch trip. 

Cyclists from the world over (from novices to dedicated bikers) flock to cycle in France to enjoy everything from relaxed vineyard pedalling, to the triumph of reaching that Chateaux at the peak of a hilltop Medieval village! In Europe, the Danube Cycle Path also offers a popular and flat cycle path along which you can explore the culture of up to four countries on one itinerary. The astonishing landscapes of North America feel even bigger and more beautiful from the seat of a bicycle. Take a cycling holiday in the USA or Canada to find out for yourself.

  • Great Glen Cycleway

    The Great Glen Cycleway is a four day trip along Scotland's Highland Fault Line, which has created three beautiful lochs, Loch Lochy, Loch Oich and of course Loch Ness. The route follows the same path as the Great Glen Way walking route and for this reason we have noted that this trip needs some Mountainbike experience to navigate your way along.

  • Danube Bike & Boat

    Take a trip along Europe's most popular cycle path, as it takes you along the banks of the Danube river. Cycle through Austria, Bratislava and Hungary as you spend each night on your 'floating hotel' as it follows you down the river.

  • Biking to Barcelona

    Cycle through the heartlands of Catalonia, experiencing the stunning scenery, rich history and outstanding gastronomy from the saddle of your bike. Rustic countryside eventually makes way to the crowning glory of Barcelona to finish your trip.

  • Isle of Skye Cycling

    Discover the mysterious Isle of Skye on Scotland's north west coast. The route takes you right around the island, visiting all big tourist spots, but also many hidden locations.
