Perfect Cycle Adventure. Great, scenic rides in good company.
It was a superb break! Helen and Harvey were sociable and ran it so well. Harvey led the runs and Helen remained at the back to ensure everyone was well catered for.They were a lovely couple who engaged well with everyone.
My third Martin [Jamieson] + Diane Bikexplore tour in as many years. Excellent as ever; everything organised (including most of the weather), but with a "light touch" when appropriate.

'Excellent planning and execution. GPS routes supplied in advance, superb Riad food both at base and via it's support vehicle on the cycle rides'

'Another great tour with Bike explore - Harvest Wine Tour in Spain.
A great laid back vibe with some challenging climbs and great downhills. Very scenic in the mountains contrasting with the seafront areas.'
