Spring is one of the best times of year to explore some of our favourite destinations around the world. In many parts of the UK and Europe, we're treated to a spectacular bust of colour, as the lush green hills become carpeted in blooms of wildflowers. It's a similar story in Morocco, Japan and South Korea when the spring climate is also perfect for an active tour. In fact, many of our tours avoid hot and busy summer months so we advise planning ahead and checking the booking calendars to help you decide where and when to go. These are our top picks for spring cycling but our friendly team are happy to answer any questions you might have about the best time of year to visit certain destinations.

Guided Leisure Bike Tour
E-BIKE HIRE AVAILABLE
This tour is well-suited to both normal bikes and pedal assist e-bikes and you can choose to hire either when you book your tour with us. Confident cyclists will enjoy the boost from a battery for those cheeky climbs, and with less effort required on the bike, you’ll have more energy at the end of the day for off-the-bike activities. You may choose to hire an e-bike on a group or supported tour but bear in mind that the pace will be set to riders without an e-bike.
