What is a self-guided cycling trip?

A self-guided cycling holiday is ideal for independent travellers who love the freedom of exploring at their own pace, but with all the logistics organised. A self-guided cycling trip is a trip in which everything is organized for you: the cycling itinerary, the booking of your accommodation, the transfer of your luggage between each hotel and the rental of your bikes. The idea is that all the logistics are taken care of, so all you have to do is bike, breathe and discover! You will save time in preparing your holidays. 

Self-guided cycling requires individuals to use problem-solving skills, be adaptable and have a keen eye. You should be comfortable with map-reading and the use of a travel app and/or referring to route notes and have a good sense of direction (or be willing to work on improving this!). At times route finding, losing your way and finding it again, or asking locals for help is all part of the adventure. If this is your first time on a self-guided trip, you will certainly get the hang of it after the first couple of days, as do the vast majority of our first-time travelers.
