Great tour, very varied itinerary. The tour leaders were keen to ensure we had a good experience and gave us lots of information about Turkey. Bikes need little more attention on day to day basis and service after each tour.
Dora our guide leader was amazing. Very calm and very organised.
The boat, Sans Sova, was very comfortable. The crew were very friendly and the meals delicious.

The trip ticked all the boxes as I imagined them, starting with beaches with turquoise transparent waters on the first and last days, from there it was medieval market villages, quiet cycling tracks through vineyards, oaks and almond trees and of course the mountains and their excellent views. Quiet hotels with character, lovely Mediterranean food and above all the charming ways of the locals. I would love to do it again, changing the route to discover even more places.
We really enjoyed the cycling in Istria. The roads were in great shape for road bikes and had very little traffic except getting in and out of Pula which is to be expected. There were lots of places to stop for cappuccino, snacks and lunch, bikes were a perfect way to visit so many villages in the hills and on the coast. The hotels were great with variety from resort style hotels to boutique hotels in the old towns. The luggage transfer was smooth. We were given maps, an app and gpx files so we were never in danger of getting lost.
Brittany Walled towns was a fantastic trip that everyone in my cycling group enjoyed . The scenery and weather was perfect and adding on our day trip on the ferry to Jersey was fantastic. I had an ebike and Patrick and Ingrid sorted out my mechanical problems by translating the issues to the bike mechanic who fixed them as a priority so i was back on the road quickly. The 2-3 star hotels and breakfasts were perfect for us and our luggage arrived with no problems to our next hotel. Well done to Anthony for helping us co-ordinate all of our trip and plane bookings nothing was too much trouble for him and any questions had a detailed email response very quickly.
We really enjoyed the cycling tour of Murcia. Our guide Miguel Angel was first class and good humoured. While the weather let us down one day (severe weather warning), Miguel quickly organised a range of activities to keep us all entertained and amused. The roads we cycled on were generally very quiet and well paved.
Fantastic trip. Well organized, with the perfect combination of support on the ground for bikes/bags, accommodation and maps, but enough freedom to go at our own pace, explore and do the trip independently.
A fantastic nine day trip through a beautiful section of the Dordogne, riding between hotels and visiting historic chateaus and towns along the way. The accommodation was excellent, the food was wonderful and the self-guided trip allows you to proceed at your own pace.
