Things To Consider Before Booking Your Next Cycling Holiday

What time of year?

First things first do you have set dates to work with or are you flexible? Some countries may be better than others depending on the time of year. It can be pretty dangerous to cycle in the summer heat which is why some countries you can’t book during July and August. Your safety comes first, so we make sure the tours are at their best.

If you don’t mind cooler temperatures, then a cycling holiday that is available offseason could be a better choice. You may also find some cycling holidays available in the winter months or early season.

What level cycling holiday to choose?

Have you been on a cycling vacation before? If not, then a level 1, level 1-2 or level 2 holiday would be better if you haven’t been away on a cycling holiday before. These tend to be our easy cycling holiday to easy-moderate cycling holidays. You may find some of these ideal if you are looking for a family cycling holiday too.

If you are more experienced, then a 2+ holiday can be a great choice especially if you have been on one of our cycling holidays before. We also have a wide range of sporting holidays or cycling tours where you can ride road bikes.
