Things to know
Self-guided bike expeditions offer a customizable and adaptable approach to cycling holidays, enabling you to explore at your own pace and alter your itinerary or path as needed. Our team handles every nuance, from lodging and meticulous planning to GPS navigation and continuous support, ensuring a tranquil and engrossing journey that affords autonomy, uniqueness, and genuine cultural interactions.
Our tours are segmented into three levels of difficulty: Leisurely, Moderate, and Challenging. The classification is based on the typical day on tour, although there might be variations in difficulty throughout the journey.
Leisurely tours are designed for those desiring a relaxed adventure through Mallorca’s breathtaking scenery, without the requirement of covering long distances or maneuvering through tough terrains. These excursions generally cover 30-50 km daily, with an altitude ascent of up to 500 m. This ensures plenty of opportunities to stop and immerse in the vistas, relish local cuisines and meander through charming villages and towns along the way.
Moderate bike tours cater to individuals seeking a balanced blend of scenic routes with a sprinkle of challenge. Typically covering 50-80 km daily with an altitude climb of up to 1000 m, these tours take you through enchanting landscapes and delightful villages, offering a mix of flat and rolling terrains. While offering ample moments to pause and delve deeper into the locale, they also promise a gratifying cycling workout.
Challenging bike tours are tailored for seasoned cyclists eager to push their limits. Spanning 80-120 km daily with an altitude surge of up to 2000 m, these expeditions entail navigating steep inclines and demanding terrains. Nevertheless, the awe-inspiring views make the endeavor worthwhile. Although these tours necessitate exceptional fitness and endurance, the exhilaration of accomplishment felt at the close of each day is incomparable.
We are devoted to finding the perfect match for you. We collaborate with numerous accommodation providers that meet our standards, although their availability may fluctuate, especially during peak demand seasons. Moreover, we can customize your holiday based on your preferences and budget, ensuring we pinpoint the ideal option catering to your needs.
We advise booking your tour at your earliest convenience, especially for popular tourist locales where accommodation availability is limited. Prime options often get booked for the summer before the arrival of spring.
Catering to dietary needs can vary based on their complexity. In Mallorca, vegetarian options are generally available, but finding vegan meals might be challenging in rural areas or smaller towns. Notably, lunch stops are often at traditional eateries that may not accommodate special dietary preferences beyond their regular offerings. Keep this in mind as you plan your journey!
The prime cycling season in Mallorca spans from mid-February to mid-November, thanks to the island’s mild Mediterranean climate. Mallorca’s favorable weather allows for enjoyable cycling almost year-round. However, to avoid the cooler winter months, planning your Mallorca cycling trip within the mentioned span is advisable.
If adverse weather is anticipated, we’ll aim to adjust the tour in advance to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable cycling experience in Mallorca.
