On our Cycle tours
On our Cycling holidays you’ll travel in a small group accompanied by a Tour Leader. This style of travel is perfect for both those travelling on their own or with a partner or friend. It’s a great way to meet new people who enjoy doing the same things you do, and it’s not unusual for lasting friendships to form. There’s nothing like the camaraderie which develops from having a shared experience, especially when you are taking on a physical challenge. If you are embarking on your fi rst ever cycling holiday you are bound to have some questions; below are the answers to some of those we get asked the most frequently.
The Bikes
Remember that on Explore cycling tours your bike is always included. You don’t need to worry about the extra cost of hiring one locally. We supply good quality mountain bikes or hybrid touring bikes, depending on the terrain. Your Tour Leader or support driver will carry tools and spare parts: you don’t need to bring anything with you except your helmet.
The Routes and Terrain
Our carefully researched routes generally follow quiet, traffi c-free backroads, with some off-road sections on cycle paths or dirt tracks. We avoid main roads wherever possible. Each route is described in more detail in the relevant “Tour Essentials” section on the tour page.
The Support Vehicle
Where practical a support vehicle is close by to provide back-up in case it’s needed. We take care of moving your luggage from one hotel to the next, so all you carry while cycling is what you may want during the day.
Your Safety and Comfort
We strongly recommend you wear a helmet while cycling and in certain countries it is compulsory. We also recommend cycle gloves, glasses and either padded shorts or a gel saddle. See individual tour notes for more information about clothing and equipment.
