Bike Trips
Free days in the most beautiful places, miles over some of the best!

Choosing the right holiday for you is the first part of the fun of a cycling trip. We´ve categorised our tours into 3 different types to make life a little easier:

1) Guided: These scheduled tours are fully guided by 2 tour leaders (usually involving at least 1 company owner) and supported. This means a SAG van accompanies the riders at all times, as well as a cycling guide. This is the tour for most cyclists as the distances are usually between 50-60km, but can be shortened (with the aid of the van) or lengthened (extra loops). With the most important monuments, sights and famous towns visited, these tours are a full cultural and gastronomic immersion to a country and are suitable for both hybrid and road bikers.

Our flagship Moorish Andalusia tour through Southern Spain will take you on an unforgettable journey from the majestic city of Seville to Granada via timeless Cordoba. This is where we live permanently all year around and take great pleasure in showing you our home. For those that want to broaden their enjoyment of Iberia, we have an exciting route across the whole of Portugal, starting in Lisbon and touring Romantic Alentejo, staying in luxury medieval castles and hilltop fortresses to your heart’s content. Or if you feel like joining us on a leisurely ride through typical English countryside, come and try our summer Cotswolds Cream Tea tour. An historic pedal from Oxford to Bath via quaint village greens, country pubs and picture postcard towns. Pint of beer anyone?

2) Self Guided: With freedom to explore and independence on the road, these holidays allow the cyclist to create their own adventure. With luggage transferred daily and a support contact, you can focus on enjoying the great cycling at a date to suit you. Try a relaxing break along Quiet Paths surrounding the hill towns of Alhama de Granada and Montefrio, or the classic Granada to Ronda route on our White Villages of Al-Andalus. For the more experienced rider, we have the Lakes, Mountains & Sea route which is simply self-led road cycling in Spain at its best, with a finish down on the Mediterranean.

3) Classic Road: If challenging miles are your thing, then these scheduled Sporting Tours are for you. Longer miles over hillier terrain, but with the comfort of a guide and support van. Enjoy a fantastic week´s road cycling on our New Sol & Sierras tour where you can ride the highest road in Europe, or come on our Vuelta a España special where you get to ride some of the stages and see the pros up close and personal!

 
     
 

Escaping Life?
Don’t stress, we make life simple

Whether it is a short escape to recharge the batteries or a longer break to get away from it all Cc caters for it. Our fully supported tours mean just that, not a van you might see once a day, but it is a constant companion, providing a cold drink or snack break, chance to drop your sweater off, grab a look in the bird book or just give a friendly thumbs up.

We also design Custom Tours for friends or clubs, corporate weekends, group tours and Day Trips. Just contact us with any requests. We are flexible enough to tailor individual bike trips for all cycling levels, budgets and dates. No worries of booking hotels, finding restaurants, lugging luggage or transporting a bike – want a bike tour based entirely on the theme of Castles, Music or Trains? – Just ask! Cc does it all for you in order that you can concentrate on enjoying the scenery and discover the country.
