5 listed, in date order, followed by self-guided Tours. Click on any title for further information.
Our centre-based tours are suitable for all cycling abilities.
whilst the moving-on tours are for the more experienced, self-reliant cyclist.
Where no dates are given, you decide on the duration, nature (we can advise) and date of your tour -
and we arrange your accommodation, some meals, and provide detailed route sheets
All are organised on a land-only basis, which means that you will make your
own way to the start, and home from the end,
of the tour; therefore, the cost of that transport
is not included in the tour price. Important:
