Welcome to Macs Adventure's guide to May biking Vacations. May is one of those months that cyclists talk about all year. Spring is in full swing, the days are noticeably longer, and landscapes across Europe are at their greenest and most colourful.

It's a genuinely great time to be on a bike. Warm enough for relaxed café stops and long lunches in the sun - cool enough to keep turning the pedals without wilting. Ride the Camino Portugués to Santiago, cycle the clifftop Rota Vicentina in Portugal, or follow the Moselle River past vineyards and castles in Germany. Explore the Canal du Midi in France, or Croatia's stunning Adriatic coast. Whatever calls to you, May opens the door to some of the best cycling vacations in Europe.
