I had such an amazing time in Morocco. Despite taking ill, as I must have eaten something funny on the first day, I managed to power through thanks to the support and guidance from the leaders and fellow group members. The views of the desert in front of you with the Atlas mountains covered in snow in the background is amazing!

Vaughan Sheward Cycle Morocco's Great South
Lorraine evans Cycle Nicaragua, Costa Rica & PanamaMy first cycling trip ever and being only a recreational cyclist i was a bit worried if i’d keep up, but i worried needlessly! Anyone with a good level of fitness and the right mindset will be fine. It was humid, wet, hilly and challenging on times, but we all kept up and altogether it was a great adventure and the downhills, wildlife and scenery more than made up for it.
Bernadette Bhakti Cycling in SardiniaSardinia is a beautiful island and the south west part where we were is different from other parts of the island – secluded, no celebrities, great mix of beach and nature, and genuine Sardinian food. We had two guides, both were excellent. The tour was well organised, everyone was kept together and safety felt like a priority. I like that they organised snacks and drinks for our stops, including electrolyte drinks! Negatives – we feel this tour doesn’t offer value for money. Pro rata it is one of the most expensive cycling tours in Europe but the accommodation quality was low. Only two working ACs, showers were old and with weak water pressure. When we all arrived, some hotels didn’t have enough hot water so people who went for the shower late ended up having a cold shower. For one hotel where there was no working AC (muma hostel), we were told it was too late at night to call the electrician but they would repair it the next morning (but we were only there for one night!). Later our group leader told us that the AC in that particular room had not been working for the last 2 weeks. There was no offer to move us to a different room. We didn’t appreciate being lied to and will leave a review about this on the hotel’s website. Also note that the support van was small and filled with our bags so there’s only 1-2 spaces for people to sit if anyone decides not to do the hill climb. Though with the e-bikes I think this probably won’t be much of a problem.
FAQs about our biking adventures
What is a biking adventure trip?
If you haven’t been on this type of break before, you might be wondering what you can expect from a biking adventure tour.
You’ll have a detailed itinerary carefully compiled by us to make sure you have a set route that takes you through some of the highlights of your chosen region. We’ll give you access to a top-quality bike and we’ll see that you’re set up with a trusty guide or our very own navigation app and GPS instructions (depending on whether you go for a guided or self-guided tour). Your accommodation will also be arranged by us, taking the hassle out of the organisation side of things for you!
What types of biking adventures are there?
There are guided and self-guided bike trips available.
A guided trip will take place in a small group led by a local expert. These are very sociable and are a great way to make friends. You can sign up to one of these as a solo traveler or with a significant other, friend or relative. If you’ve already got a group of people you want to travel with, some cycling holiday packages also have the option for you to come along as a private group.
Some of our bike trips are self-guided. These are perfect for the traveler that likes to travel at their own pace, but still have an organised itinerary to follow and excellent accommodation. We provide the bikes and the maps, among other things!
How are biking tours graded?
When you check out the various biking tour breaks we run, you’ll notice that we’ve graded them as “leisurely”, “moderate”, or “challenging” to give you a better idea of the level of exertion involved. As a baseline, we recommend you be in good health and relish the outdoors when you embark on your adventure with us. Read more about how our cycling activity level grading works.
You can also read the helpful fitness guide we’ve put together to help you prepare for your Exodus trip.
Where can I go on a biking trip?
There are lots of options. In Europe, we’ve got a fantastic range that includes famed regions such as the Swiss Alps, France’s Loire Valley, the Spanish region of Valencia and various other Mediterranean coastal routes.
If you want to venture further afield, why not embark on one our tours of the Indian state of Kerala, our Vietnam adventure or the premium Indochina and Angkor biking vacation that covers three breath-taking south-eastern Asian countries?
What is the duration of a biking adventure?
With us, you can choose from short biking breaks that last 6 days to longer holidays of up to 14 days. Whichever you choose, we’ll make sure we pack tonnes of amazing highlights into the time you spend in the region.
Are the trips guided?
Some, but not all, of these trips are guided. When you’re browsing, you can find out whether it’s guided or self-guided by checking out the bar at the top of the page that lists key information.
If you’re thinking of joining a guided bike trip, you may be wondering what your group will be like. Most Exodus groups are comprised of 5-16 people who love to travel and embrace the outdoors lifestyle. You’re likely to meet solo travelers, couples and friends traveling together from all walks of life.
What should I pack?
Wondering what to take on a biking adventure? You should pack a couple of pairs of shoes with biking cleats (including a spare pair in case something happens to your original pair). Bring a helmet, some sunglasses and consider some suncream too.
For your bike, it’s a good idea to bring front and rear lights with spare batteries in case these need changing while you’re on the move.
Don’t forget that you’ll need to stay hydrated as well, so it’s a good idea to bring a couple of bottle cages for the bike and two large water bottles. If you’re hiring a bike from us, please be aware which bike size suits you so that we can match you up with a comfy pair of wheels.
Check the essential details of your vacation on the overview tab to see what’s not included. For example, you will need to sort travel insurance yourself and potentially visas too.
What do I need to wear on a biking adventure?
Don’t forget to bring biking clothes that will keep you comfortable in the climate you’re traveling to. Consider whether you need long or short-fingered cycling gloves, arm warmers and leg warmers. A wind and waterproof jacket probably won’t go amiss, and neither will some quick-drying compression socks.
If your vacation includes dining out on an evening or swimming, make sure you pack appropriate clothing for these experiences as well!
What are the accommodations like?
We select the accommodations for our adventures carefully because we know it’s important for you to take some time to relax and be comfortable on your break.
The accommodation you have depends on the vacation you choose, and you can get a better idea of what it will be like by reading the overview tab on the trip you’re considering.
Overnight stays in hotels are part of most of our biking vacations. Some include houseboat stays and homestays too!
Will food be provided?
Check the essential details relating to your vacation to find this out. Most of our guided tours include breakfasts. Some trips, including our self-guided ones, leave it up you to sort your food arrangements throughout the day.
