Travel around the world’s cities and towns on a guided bike tour, and you get to experience new destinations as a local. Cycling provides a unique on-the-ground perspective, putting you in contact with locals and setting a more leisurely pace for sightseeing.

Cycling tours take you away from the main streets, to explore lesser-known sights and local gems. Experience history first-hand on a Berlin bike tour, cycle through the old town of Prague, see Paris like a Parisian, and cover sightseeing miles with ease on two wheels.

Organize a private cycling tour, combine food and cycling on a culinary tour of a foodie destination like Paris or Sydney, or get from A to B with speed by cycling from sight to sight.

Away from the cities, you can cycle through picture-postcard French villages to Versailles, meander along laneways in the Tuscan countryside or go wilderness mountain biking in the California hills.

Numbers are smaller on most cycling tours, ensuring more one-on-one interaction with your local guide. Ask your guide for local tips on dining, shopping and entertainment, and get to know the city from a local’s point of view.

Bikes, helmets and orientation are provided, and most cycle tours cater for all abilities. You can also arrange bike rental in cities like Munich, Amsterdam and San Francisco, leaving you in the driving seat to decide which sights and precincts you’d like to visit.
