Do you like gravel or MTB bike riding? Then this is the trip for you. Do you only like road bike riding? This isn’t the trip for you.
While there are sections on smooth backroads and bike paths, there are many sections on cobblestones, single track, forest trails, lumpy, bumpy and rocky paths. Some of these trails will be too steep or too rocky to ride and you will need to push your bike up these sections. There will also be times (mostly on day 1), where you will need to carry your bike up and down the stairs of flyovers of railway line crossings. There will also be times where the gps/Camino trail takes you down one way streets. There will also be a few times when the gps track differs from the Camino trail markers - we defaulted to following the Camino trail markers.
The challenge is worth it. Experiencing different scenery, visiting interesting towns, meeting walkers (we didn’t meet any other riders).

The tour was lovely and very well managed by the leader. I suggest that the cycling was harder than moderate, and anyone thinking of joining the tour be advised to be confident and cycling fit.

While the scenery and the Greek experience were great, the trip was made by a great CEO - Spy! She was amazing.

This all-Italian adventure swings you from this historic beauty of Rome through the home of pizza, Naples (where you can stop off in the perfectly preserved Roman town of Pompeii). Then, it's all about living the good life on the Amalfi coast, sipping limoncello, and stopping off at picture perfect Positano (if you're here in the summer) and Sorrento during those breezy winter months. Back in Rome you'll get a chance to check out the Colosseum, before this unforgettable 6-day trip comes to an end.

Join a two hour tour exploring the Dutch Golden Age through the eyes of the most fabulous paintings of the Dutch Masters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Frans Hals or Jan Steen. By giving historical background information and explaining also the lives of different painters we will be able to sketch a total picture of this incredible century during which Amsterdam from a small fishing village became a world player pioneering international trade and establishing new world order based on new values for a "New World". This exhilarating journey will make the 17th century come alive and speak to you in the way in which it is still relevant today.
Great adventure, great guide in Shallal, we'd love to have her on our next adventure! Can say nothing but good things, except perhaps to schedule during a cooler time of year but that is not anything you can change!. We did notice the group dynamic changed when 4 people ended their first week with our group and 4 new people joined our group for the 2nd week. We were more of a team with the first group we had and that was really nice and a good selling point for small group tours like yours. For our next tour we'll be looking only at small group tours.

Travelling at your own pace, you'll combine the elegance of eternal favourites like Ravello, Positano and Sorrento with discoveries most travellers never make such as farmers harvesting olives, fishermen crouched over brightly painted boats mending their nets and the bird's eye view of the entire peninsula from the Path of the Gods above Positano.
From Ravello, whose exotic formal gardens at Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone seem to float ethereally between sea and sky, your route takes you first to Positano's chic pastel houses and enticing pebble beach. It's then on to Marina del Cantone, and the hidden shingle coves few visitors ever find. Finally you reach cliff-top Sorrento. With balcony views over Vesuvius, it's a great base to visit Pompeii or Herculaneum by train, or Capri or Ischia by boat.

Perfect tour for a city trip to Madrid. The hotel is very centrally located, so you can walk to all major sights within 30 minutes. The included bus ticket also gives you the opportunity to see Madrid from a wider area. Pick-up from the airport worked great.
