Cycling Tours in the Azores
Located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, the Azores represents the most Western point of Europe and is somewhat of a hidden gem for cyclists and European explorers. The volcanic nature of the island makes it a fantastically diverse location to explore by bike, with some superb routes and trails along the way that cater for road and mountain cyclists. These islands allow you to get lost in the mountains or take in the beautiful costal scenery and should be part of any cyclist's checklist. We offer both guided and self-guided cycling tours in the Azores, so depending on your preference you are able to discover this bubbling island as part of a group, or cycle at your own pace.
