Leisure Bike tours
From gentle journeys to adventurous trails - discover the joy of travelling by bike
Our Leisure Cycling tours are all about exploring the most incredible destinations across the UK and Europe at the speed of a bike. You can relax and take it easy on one of our gentle e-bike tours or join a classic cycling challenge like the C2C or Camino de Santiago. We’ve got something for everyone, from beginners to experienced riders, so come and join in the fun!
Adventure-seekers will love our tours into the wilds of Scotland and Ireland, while foodies will be blown away by the flavours of Sardinia, Emilia Romagna and the Basque Country, and if you enjoy mixing your cycling with history and culture, there are countless wonders to discover in Andalucia, Tuscany, Provence, Northumberland and more. For the ultimate relaxing tour, check out our bike and boat tours in France, Italy and Holland. Whether you choose to join a guided small group tour or go on your own self-guided tour with friends and family, we’ll take care of all the logistics so you can simply unwind and enjoy the ride.

Worth noting! Some cafes / restaurants only open during the Swedish summer holiday season (July – second week of August). If travelling earlier in the season (May/June) or towards the end of August, into Sept, we’d recommend stocking up on supplies from a supermarket, and making sure you have snacks, plenty to drink, and / or a picnic with you on each ride. You’ll find some places operate throughout the year, but earlier / later in the season options can be limited, so worth being prepared!

This will also affect return travel to Helsingborg. If you are hiring bikes, there will be a bus replacement service available; however, bikes are not permitted.
