Wondering if a Self Guided Cycling Tour is suitable for You?
Any concerns you may have are covered here:
-
Will I be fit enough?
Will I be fit enough? – this area is mountainous, so each day will include some hill climbs but they are pefectly do-able for any reasonably fit leisure cyclist - take your time and be sure to take plenty of breaks to enjoy the views on the way. Or upgrade to one of our e-bikes to take the strain (small supplement applies). Pedal-assist e-bikes give battery powered assistance at each pedal stroke to help you on the climbs but still give you a bit of a work out. Perfect for couples with different cycling fitness - one of you can use our usual bikes and the other can take an e-bike.

Navigation
Navigation – we supply a simple Garmin GPS, preloaded with your daily cycling tour routes from door-to-door of each nights' accommodation. We also provide a large-scale, annotated map, giving you a perspective of where you are at all times.

Luggage
Luggage – no need for panniers or trying to pack light and risk leaving important items behind. We transfer your main luggage for you, so you just take a few items for each day – water, snacks, sunscreen. We provide an 8 litre capacity rear trunkbag.
