Explore the world on two wheels and discover some of the most iconic cycling destinations. From scenic countryside routes to vibrant city rides, these popular destinations offer unforgettable experiences for cyclists of all levels.
Spain
Cycling through Spain is a good choice for many active travelers for its varied landscape and incredible beauty, from Mallorca to Girona to Calpe. There are hills to climb when you want them and long flats in between.
Opt to tackle the Camino de Santiago classic pilgrimage on two wheels, savor the goods of the wine valley of El Bierzo, and, every day, refuel with delicious tapas.
China
In China, cyclists pedal through limestone landscapes and explore China's top attractions, from the Forbidden City to the Great Wall.
Touring China by bike with a guide is a great way to slow down and soak up the culture and landscapes of the country. Top it off with a bike ride through Yangshuo, from Guilin to Xingping, a glorious, postcard-perfect ride.
Dolomites, Italy
The Dolomite mountain range in northern Italy is a top cycling destination in Europe. It is known for its rugged alpine beauty and the challenges of its ups and downs.
If you're up for the climbs, you won't regret the choice — an alternative is the Bormio region, still in the Dolomites, and offering its own collection of rewarding mountain passes. A more accessible biking alternative in the Dolomites is along the Old Dolomites Railway, from the mountains to Venice. You'll still get all the alpine views but with fewer ascents.
Tuscany, Italy
A bucket-list biking destination for many, Tuscany is an epic spot for a guided cycling tour. Tackle the most scenic bike routes of the Tuscan countryside, through the Arno River Valley, into Chianti and its delightful wine villages, the Elsa River Valley, and the World Heritage town of San Gimignano.
Of course, your Tuscany cycling tour will give you plenty of time to taste renowned red and white wines while visiting vineyards and dining on savory local specialties.
Nicaragua
Cycle the iconic Pan American Highway and see the beauty and attractions of Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. This favorite biking destination boasts Lake Nicaragua, Irazu volcano, Panama City, and more, plus the chance to stop and go rafting, hiking, and snorkeling.
San Juan Islands
Washington State's San Juan Islands archipelago is a cyclist favorite in the Pacific Northwest. Crisscross farmland and forest on quiet country roads, climbing - if you so choose - Mount Constitution on Orcas Island.
Wine Country, California
Pedal from vineyard to vineyard, refueling with world-class cuisine along the way as you cycle through Napa and Sonoma counties. Your cycling guide may have suggestions for backcountry roads less often traveled, which is an excellent way to customize your bike tour.
The Baltic States
Biking the Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania) feels like you've pedaled right into the pages of a fairytale. The Baltic states are an emerging cycling destination, combining natural scenery with historic sightseeing.
Bike along the renowned Route 10 to get a taste of medieval history in Tallinn — it will take you across the Baltic Sea — and continue through lush forests, past serene lakes, and pastoral farmland.
Cape Town, South Africa
From the Stellenbosch vineyards along Route 62 to the Karoo Desert to the Cape of Good Hope, guided bike tours near Cape Town unveil all this spectacular region has to offer.
Whale watch from Hermanus, visit penguins at the Boulders colony, feel like a pro as you pedal along the Cape Argus race route, and eat the farm-fresh produce from Koo Valley orchards.
Rhineland
Hop on a bike to explore the Neckar and Rhine river valleys in Germany. The highlights of your cycling tour are the historic, storybook villages that line the riverbanks, wine tastings, good food, and good company.
Want to sail the Rhine? Read more about Rhine river cruises - many of these voyages include as much biking onshore as you'd like to include.
