How to Prepare for a Multi-Day Cycling Holiday in Europe

From fitness to route planning, this concise guide will arm you with six essential tips you need to get ready for an unforgettable cycling tour in Europe.

1. Fitness Preparation

Start your journey long before you hit the road by engaging in a balanced training regimen. Aim for 8-12 weeks of cardio, strength training, and saddle time to be tour-ready.

2. Gear Essentials

Quality gear is non-negotiable. Invest in a reliable bike and cycling apparel that are suited to the climate and terrain you’ll encounter during your cycling holidays in Europe. If you’re short on gear, we offer convenient rental options to make sure you’re well-equipped for your adventure.

3. Route Knowledge

Knowing your route is crucial. Research the terrain, local cycling laws, and weather conditions. A GPS cycling computer can be an invaluable tool for seamless navigation. But worry not, from our team you will receive detailed handouts and GPX maps before you start your cycling journey.

4. Nutritional Planning

Fueling your body right is key to enjoying your ride. Pack high-energy snacks and ample water, and plan stops along your route where you can replenish supplies.

5. Accommodation and Rest

Book accommodations ahead of time that are strategically located along your route. Look for cyclist-friendly amenities like secure bike storage. Luckily, our team has access to the best bike-friendly accommodations in Europe.

6. Travel Documentation

Ensure all travel documents, including passports, visas, and cycling-specific travel insurance, are in order before you set off on your adventure.

By following these six tips, you’re setting the stage for a rewarding and enjoyable cycling holiday in Europe.

Baltic Bike Tour: Vilnius to Tallinn (self-guided supported) Tour

  • Self-Guided Cycling

Baltic Bike Tour: Vilnius to Tallinn (self-guided supported)

Would have preferred one less ride on the island and a full day in Tallinn. The maps were pretty good for the unguided portion but on day 4 we could have gone a little farther by bike and caught a ferry that unloaded right by the hotel. We followed directions and caught first ferry and then had a mile and half ride through city to get to hotel. Driver was very good, very friendly, and very helpful. Rides were very nice in national parks. Would also look to add more villages. Interesting to make stops and meet locals

Loire Cycle Path: Wild-romantic all the way to the sea (from Orleans to St-Nazaire)

Fantastic trip. Hotels were tremendous, especially the meal in the hotel in Saint Florent-le-Vieil. Maps were good though I used my app Bikemap.net, to act as a Sat Nav. A couple of hiccups with luggaeew but minor in comparison with holiday organisation. Would certainly recommend.

Lake Constance - Lake Koenigssee - Salzburg 14/13 Tour

Lake Constance - Lake Koenigssee - Salzburg 14/13

Setting up the tour, and the tour itself were wonderful. We had a few glitches in our plans and Paula was a great help in getting them worked out. Hotels were very good and clean, food at the hotels, excellent! That said, the bikes were NOT. Even though they were brand new, and the gearing great for what they were. However, we did this tour under our own power, no electric bikes, and were told that hybrid bikes were not available for this tour, also told we weren’t allowed to use clip-in pedals. The bikes were heavy, and we found ourselves walking and pushing them up many hills, some rocky and gravel roads, which, if we would have had a decent bike for this tour, a hybrid bike, we would most likely had an easier time of it. Not happy about the bikes! Also, the opening page of the tour says 1-99 as in years old of people that could do this tour, definitely false advertising, there is no way, even with the electric bikes, that some people could not navigate the roads on this tour. We are 2 women in our 70’s and did it, I am proud to say, we have a lot of experience, it was not easy. It could have been much more enjoyable with a different bike. Over all, a fantastic trip. Thank you.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.
