            Saddle Skedaddle staff were excellent. Consistently high standards delivered year on year. Don't think I'd trust anybody else when booking a cycling holiday!

            This was the best of the several organised bike tours I've been on by light years, and I'm now looking at doing other tours with Skedaddle.

            One of the very best trips! The kindness and professionalism of the lead guide and his locally based colleagues was outstanding in every respect.

            From the first day to the last, everything was fantastic. We never had to worry about anything. Hotels, van pick-ups, guides - you had it all covered!
