The adventure begins
So you’re interested in your first bike tour? Congratulations!
Many of our clients tell us that bicycle touring has changed their lives and opened their eyes to a new and exciting type of travel.
We know it can be a bit daunting planning that first tour. Don’t worry! We’ll help get you started and point you in the right direction to make sure your first trip sets the stage for many more dream tours to come. In the meantime, we have some valuable tips on choosing, planning, and going on your first bike tour.
This was my first bike tour and I cannot say enough positive things about my experience. The trip was more than a bike tour—it was a cultural tour. The sites are absolutely breathtaking. I’m giving myself a few weeks to recover and then planning my next one!”
