Self-Guided Cycling Holidays

The freedom of a self-guided cycling holiday is one of its great appeals Map in pocket, you can explore the beautiful scenery, great sites and hidden gems as you pass at your own pace, assured that at the end of the day a warm welcome in a comfortable hotel (or other accommodation) awaits you.

Biking is the perfect way to discover the varied landscapes of the UK, Europe and beyond, with a huge mixture of roads, cycle trails and off-road terrain to choose from on holidays for all levels of ability and paces.

Winding past lakes and dramatic vistas in the Dolomites, soaking up the peaceful atmosphere along the Canal du Midi in South West France or combining cycling with wine tasting in beautiful Rioja, Spain are just some of the holidays to choose from for a wonderful self-guided cycling break.
