Amazing experience

Best of Catalonia Cycle Touring

My brother and I did a self led tour, and I can't say enough great things about our experience. Daniel, the owner, met us on Day 1 and gave a very thorough briefing and overview. He was available throughout the journey and such a joy to interact with as needed. Seeing Catalonia from city to sea to country was absolutely fabulous, albeit a bit hot given our chosen tour dates! Would absolutely recommend to anyone.

Beautiful time in the Loire

Loire a Velo: Orleans to the Atlantic

The trip was a dream. The accommodation was exceptional thoughout the trip. Only negative was that the non electric bikes are heavy and had a lot of grease on the chain and seatpost.

Algarve Bike Ride

Algarve Coastal Route

Overall we were quite happy with the experience. There were a couple of glitches which the on the ground team was able to rectify to get us on our happy way. The GPS system was where we had the most challenges as they did not always coincide with the written direction given us, which is why I only gave ease of navigation 3 stars and bikes and equipment 4 stars.

Most of the accommodation was excellent and all included breakfast. One hotel in particular The Villa Gale Ampalius was absolutely fabulous and had the best breakfast.

We were not expecting as much off road travel as we did. For the most part they were easy gravel hard packed road however, there are some sections that are for more experienced mountain bike riders which in a younger life would have been ok but certainly not at 70. I may have missed this part of the description of the tour notes when booking the trip in the first place.

Although, it would be a logistical nightmare for the tour group it would have been nice to have options to stay an extra night here or there. I know they do offer this up front. so keeping this in mind you may want to have an extra night in Tavira. The hotel is beautiful and sits in the main area of this gorgeous City making it easy to walk everywhere. We did get to the Real Villa de San Antonio a day before which Bike Tours happily arranged for us.

Our bags were always where they needed to be at the end of the day and the level of communication with the tour group was exceptional even when we needed to discuss some difficulties which, Angie, Fernando and Susana did an outstanding job of making things right. The E-bikes were easy to ride. The gearing made navigating hills easy. Even the hill on the last day was a breeze. The tour suggests what seems to be a much lesser climb however, we took the bigger of the two due to the not so easy looking off road option when we saw it.

The last day reads and seems like a lot however we were surprised at how fast we completed it. After viewing the light house we sat at the first food truck as you enter the beginning of the park and had one of the best burgers ever. Wish I could remember their trucks name. A husband and wife team run it. You won't be disappointed.

Generally speaking It was a nice way to experience the Algarve and now that we've done our first bike trip there will be others to follow.
