Itinerary

Imagine cycling through Scotland’s wild Inner Hebrides, spotting dolphins from a two-masted sailing boat and pedaling past red deer and whisky distilleries on the Isle of Jura.

Each day brings new adventures—wildlife sightings, dramatic coastlines, and evenings relaxing in your boat’s cozy lounge.

We loved the 'Flying Dutchman ' and her crew. The rides were sometimes challenging but wild scenery was great!

Boat and all staff friendly and helpful. Rides were great and quite challenging. Our fellow passengers were fun and we were all compatible. This was an excellent trip

Other than the weather was unkind, the Ride was well organised.

We had a great crew, loved the cook and his food. The cycling guides were excellent and very responsive to our needs. Even the weather cooperated. Scotland is very beautiful, especially the western islands. The local people are very friendly. If you are not a strong rider go electric since there are many hills on this ride.

It was an amazing trip, Martin, Bubi, Denny, Ola and the captain made the trip fantastic for us. The landscapes, the food, the sailing--all wonderful adventures.
