Exodus cycling holidays in Germany combine exquisite natural scenery and border-hopping adventures with age-old traditions that are still very much alive and well. Whether you’re following the trail of the multi-national River Danube, circling the shoreline of Lake Constance or carving your way through beautiful Bavaria, we guarantee you won’t forget it.
On our dedicated cycle routes along the Danube, you’ll traverse steep-sided valleys and dense riverside woods on your merry way to magnificent Vienna. You can even choose to travel by bike and boat combined – fitting in stop-offs in bustling Budapest and Bratislava along the way.
When imagining our self-guided tours around Lake Constance, try to envisage stunning mountain views, café-lined waterfronts, fairy-tale palaces and daily swims in turquoise waters. You’ll be flanked by Swiss and Austrian peaks in a region that’s overflowing with history.
And then there’s the beautifully unspoilt Bavaria. Here, bratwurst, beer and lederhosen remain the order of the day – but that’s just the start. You’ll uncover a surprising landscape that features the stunning German Jura mountains in amongst winding rivers, fertile hills and hilltop castles. Our cycling trips in Germany are ready to be experienced – what are you waiting for?
Trip completed in Jan-Feb 2025. This was my first time in India. The cycling was excellent (one day with 900m elevation riding to Kumbhalgarh but otherwise actually easier in terms of elevation/distance than on other grade 3 trips I’ve been on). Cycling in the cities is somewhat of an adrenaline sport which was great fun! The Taj Majal, Udaipur and Jodhpur Fort were all excellent. The food is exceptionally good. The bus was the most comfortable exodus trip bus I’ve ever been on and made the longer journeys a pleasure. I enjoyed the experience of the overnight train journey.
The Shree Ram hotel, Kumbhalgarh Forest Retreat and Sariska Safari Lodge I found to be very good and enjoyed staying there. The room in Ashok Country Resort was somewhat damp/musty. With the swimming pool closed there isn’t much to do there and, other than the airport, there’s nothing nearby. Food there was good. Bathrooms in the vesta mayura palace and udai villas were dirty. A night club next to the vesta mayua pumps out window shaking music until around midnight. This holiday is really cheap for two weeks – I know I can’t expect too much of a three star hotel in India but I’d rather have paid a bit more and had a nicer cleaner hotel at every stop.
My second exodus trip in portugal and once again the food (especially the picnics) was exceptional. Not quite enough cycling to burn off all the calories from the pasteis de natas and other delicious pastries/cakes! The scenery on this trip was the best I have experienced on an exodus trip – on other trips I’ve found some great scenery interspersed with longer stretches on roads with nondescript views, on the porto to lisbon trip it was multiple stunning beach/cliff views with forest, boardwalk, bays and quaint villages. Hotels were generally of very good quality (worth the superior comfort level advertised). The start hotel was changed to the Hotel Vila Gale which was OK but could do with a refurb of the rooms (doesn’t look as good as the planned hotel neya).
The majority of our cycling holidays in Germany run for just over a week including flight time. If you’re pedalling from Passau to Vienna or touring around the beautiful Lake Constance, you’ll be able to enjoy 11 incredible days away from home.
