Forbes Travel Guide Stories
Five Top Luxury Bike Outfitters By Forbes Travel Guide Editor Hayley Bosch
May 22, 2012
Love the idea of a cycling vacation, but prefer to end your day tucked in at a luxury inn rather than rouging it? Consider booking a tour with one of the outfitters on Forbes Travel Guide’s editors’ list of the world’s top bike companies. These tour operators provide everything from the most cutting edge bikes and gear, to exclusive tours of the top local sights, and rooms and meals at the area’s best locations. Here are our favorite luxury bike outfitters and a few their best trips.
Embarking on a multi-day biking trip is taxing, but with a little help from Backroads’ 4,000-bike inventory, things are a little easier. Top-notch bikes paired with premier inns to rest your head come nightfall make for a fantastic adventure. Like many outfitters, Backroads offers more than just biking, including hiking, kayaking and rafting, but our Forbes Travel Guide editors love the cycling trips. The guides are experienced — and local when possible — and make your tour as memorable as possible. Each day presents a variety of rides that range from easy to challenging, so you can tailor the trip to fit your level. Backroads provides everything from detailed maps for your daily spins and gourmet picnic lunches to custom-build bikes for your kids and side activities on every trip. You can go on family adventures, join a small group or book your own private tour.
Book this trip: Biking through Santa Fe and Taos with Backroads leads you into a new world of cycling and the Southwest. As one of the outfitter’s “premier inn” trips, you’ll check in to luxurious accommodations such as The Inn of the Five Graces and Rancho de San Juan, both of which exude New Mexico charm. Spinning past scenes from Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings at Ghost Ranch and climbing through mountain villages like Las Trampas make this adventure both scenic and intriguing. Throughout your daily rides, you can take a break from the bike and stroll through places like the Taos Pueblo, where full-time residents live without running water and electricity.
Butterfield & Robinson
With tours in some of the most incredible destinations in the world (from Italy’s Piedmont region to British Columbia ), luxurious hotels and top-notch equipment, Canadian outfitter Butterfield & Robinson has long been considered one of the best in the business. Rides are as difficult as you make them — the knowledgeable guides are flexible with the activity levels and even offer optional extensions to any daily ride. Add to the mix the fact that you’re staying in top-notch hotels (some are Relais & Chateaux members, while others are luxury chains such as Fairmont and Banyan Tree) and outfitted with a state-of-the-art bike (depending on your destination, it could be a Cannondale, Rocky Mountain or Pinarello), and you’ve got yourself one of the best biking outfitters in the world. It doesn’t hurt that Toronto-based Butterfield & Robinson has been organizing trips since 1966, nurturing close ties with locals and offering memorable experiences ranging from cooking classes to truffle hunting.
Book this trip: Foodies should pencil in this fall’s Piemonte Biking tours now — you’ll spin through the rolling hills of Italy’s beautiful Piedmont region, which many believe churns out the best food in the country. For six days and five nights, the medieval towns and endless vineyards are yours to explore (including truffle hunting in Alba and a hands-on cooking lesson in Tigliole). Spending your nights in authentically Italian accommodations like Villa Tiboldi in Canale set in the middle of the Trinità vineyards and Il Boscareto Resort and Spa in Serralunga d’Alba, you can’t help but fall in love with the lifestyle. Or if you want something more far-flung, ride along one of the world’s earliest commercial highways from Xi’an to Beijing on the beautiful Silk Road, which once linked the Roman Empire and Imperial China. You’ll stay in luxurious hotels like Raffles Beijing Hotel and see remarkable sites such as the caves of Mogao.
Ciclismo Classico
Getting to know a destination is one thing, but pedaling through it with experienced guides who know the place inside and out is another. Massachusetts-based Ciclismo Classico has been biking throughout the world since 1988, providing everything from cycling clinics and a Ciclismo jersey to wine tastings and gourmet meals. Aside from learning to ride through some of the most beautiful places in the world (think Chile, the Berkshires and Sicily), the trips are designed to give you a taste of the local culture through add-ons like museums and cider tastings. While the rides are geared toward specific levels, you can adjust your day to fit your needs, or tack on an extra loop. Along with daily cycling, Ciclismo Classico offers lessons on the culture and history from the local guides, no matter where your ride may bring you.
Book this trip: Ride through the undiscovered countryside of Normandy, where you’ll stop off to taste cider, cheese and calvados. Ciclismo Classico’s Normandy tour winds you through historic sites such as William the Conqueror’s Caen and scenes straight out of paintings by Claude Monet and Eugène Boudin. At night, after your 30-mile bike ride, you’ll rest your head at charming hotels like Château Les Bruyères in Cambremer and Hotel Ivan Vautiers in Caen. Add on to your already spectacular trip by spending a few days in Brittany, strolling through majestic Mont Saint Michel and riding along the Rance River. For a trip a little closer to home — for you and Ciclismo Classico — book a ride through the Berkshires. The Western Massachusetts mountain range is filled with climbs, but you’ll be rewarded with cultural indulgences such as the Norman Rockwell Museum and Tanglewood Music Center (the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s summer home).
Trek Travel
As a world-class bike manufacturer, all of the tours Trek Travel offers are top-notch. With trips through beautiful destinations like Prague, Mallorca and California, this outfitter does it right with top-of-the-line bikes, exclusive activities and great hotels. No matter which adventure you choose, you’ll be riding one of the best bikes in the world (like the Trek Madone 5.2 and Trek 7.7 FX). Aside from the technical specs, Trek Travel takes care of everything from bike computers to gratuities. If you can’t decide which tour is for you, a dedicated trip consultant will help you make the difficult choice and answer all of your questions. And while cycling is a large part of the experience, you’ll also get a taste of the local culture through activities such as visits to archeological sites and wine tastings.
Book this trip: To celebrate Trek Travel’s 10th anniversary, the luxury outfitter is offering a special edition trip through the California Wine Country . Biking through the rolling vineyards and the jaw-dropping Redwood Forest is enough to earn that glass of wine at one of the various wineries that you’ll stop at during your rides. From an exclusive tour of Benziger Family Winery’s underground estate caves to a private winetasting at Cakebread Cellars, Trek Travel makes sure you get the most of your California biking experience. Come nightfall, you’ll rest your head at charming hotels like the Vintage Inn and Hotel Healdsburg.
DuVine Adventures
DuVine’s experienced guides paired with top-notch lodgings create a divine biking experience. With trips ranging from Israel and Spain to Ecuador and the Galapagos, there’s a tour for every palate. DuVine Adventures rates its trips based on activity level, and you can even customize your own adventure. This luxury outfitter has you covered by lining up gourmet dinners complete with wine,and upscale accommodations, and will do everything from translating the menus to choosing souvenirs. If you’re not an avid cyclist, the DuVine guides are at your side (with a support van) to make sure things run smoothly. Throughout the years, the guides have nurtured relationships with the locals, giving you that extra look into the culture with authentic cuisine and exclusive educational and cultural visits each day — think wine tastings and medieval villages.
Book this trip: You may recognize the route from Emilio Estevez’s The Way ; but Spain’s Camino de Santiago (St. James’ Way) has been a road full of pilgrims — both on bike and foot — making their way to Santiago de Compostela, where tradition has it that the remains of the apostle Saint James are buried. You’ll stop off in tiny villages along the route and rest your legs at historic hotels such as Parador San Marcos, which was once a monastery founded to house pilgrims traveling the road. After climbing hill after hill, you’re rewarded with delicious food and even better wine. Or you can discover picturesque Cape Cod , Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard and learn about the rich history of whaling and fishing. Rest your legs at classic inns such as Hob Knob Hotel and indulge in “après velo” cocktails to reward yourself for a hard day’s work.

5 best luxury cycling holiday operators
If you love luxury almost as much as you love cycling, then considering luxury cycling holidays for your next break has to be a no-brainer. Who says that those taking to two wheels have to rough it? Not InGamba, Butterfield and Robinson, DuVine, Trek Travel or Backroads – the five luxury bike tour companies featured here.
Wondering how we’ve picked these five? Well, over the years they’re the names we’ve most often heard talked about when friends and industry contacts have been talking about luxury cycling trips.
So if luxury is what you’re looking for, we hope this article helps. Below we compare and contrast what they offer, covering what they’re all about as well as practical matters like pricing, group sizes, accommodation, bike hire and where they go. Plus what to expect in terms of how hardcore the cycling actually is…
Have you travelled with these luxury cycling tour operators? Let us know your experience in the comments below!
This article is based on the information on each operator’s website. We’ve done our best to ensure our summary is accurate, but please double-check everything with the operator since the information on their website could be out of date or could have changed since we wrote the article. It’s even conceivable (heaven forbid!) that we may have made a mistake.
The companies are listed in alphabetical order.
Backroads offers the discerning cyclist adventure, activity and taking the road less travelled in over 50 countries worldwide.
Perhaps they can entice you to visit one of their more unusual destinations: is Vietnam, Montenegro, Tanzania, Jordan, Ecuador or Tahiti on your must-visit list?
Founded back in 1979, Backroads specialises in hiking, biking and adventure trips for those who love to explore. If you’re an active type who loves visiting places that are a little off the beaten (cycle) track, then Backroads could offer just what you’re looking for.
These are not your average luxury family cycling holidays, but Backroads does offer trips tailored for parents plus their children, teens or even adult kids. In addition to those aimed at couples, solo travellers and friends travelling together.
- Where: Asia, the Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, North America and the Pacific
- Average group size: 16
- Accommodation: Mostly premiere hotels offering luxury, charm and character
- What’s included: All accommodation; most meals, snacks and drinks; bike, helmet and water bottle; experienced leaders; activities, transport costs and entry fees as stated; local gratuities, comprehensive travel planner
- What’s not included: Flights, transfers, travel insurance, private room charges, Backroads guide gratuities, dinner during free evenings, optional extras
- Bike hire: Custom-built titanium bikes, e-bikes or Cannondale pro carbon bikes. Tandems and e-bikes may also be available
- Level of cycling: All levels of fitness are covered by the trips – some are more challenging than others
Butterfield & Robinson
Butterfield & Robinson go beyond bikes. Their trips include travel on foot, by boat or on safari. Whatever the mode of transport, slow travel is their mantra.
Founded in 1966, Butterfield & Robinson is a well-established tour operator that goes way beyond the usual luxury cycling holidays in France, Italy, Spain or the US. If you want to experience it, they can ensure you do it.
Options range from cycling holidays to cultural and wellness holidays or extended journeys and expeditions to taking a safari or a trip by sea. Top of the list, though, is luxury cycling tours of Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia.
Here’s a taster of some of their itineraries. You can take an active cycling trip around the Adriatic Islands for eight days, or tour central Japan by e-bike for the same duration. Join a small group to explore Ireland on two wheels, take an e-bike around Morocco or combine a Rhine River cruise with cycling in Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland.
If you want to take luxury cycling holidays in Europe at a more relaxed pace, Butterfield & Robinson might well be your best bet.
- Where: Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America
- Accommodation: Stylish hotels with a local, slow travel feel
- What’s included: All accommodation; most meals, snacks and drinks; regular or e-bike and gear; expert guides; activities and entry fees as stated; local gratuities

DuVine is all about luxury bicycle tours with a focus on food, wine, local character and culture.
DuVine offers high end bike tours that showcase some of the world’s best cycling areas. Comfort plus challenge is the focus of their luxury bike trips. The company offers cycling holidays in Puglia, Switzerland, the French Alps, Zion, Rioja and Scotland, to name but a few destinations.
Food and wine regions are a speciality, and local character and culture the focus.
DuVine is all about seeing the world by bike. Not only at a surface level, but delving deeper beneath the skin of each destination. Whether it’s Sicily, Mallorca, the Champagne region or Holland, you’ll stay in accommodation and eat at restaurants that reflect the culture and cuisine of each location. Hotels are handpicked not only because they offer deluxe accommodation, but also because they give those staying there a genuine sense of place.
If you like to combine luxury with cycling and adventure, it’s worth taking a look at DuVine’s luxury cycling trips.

For the avid cyclist who is also looking for some luxury, InGamba’s trips will be of interest.
Their trips are led by former pros, soigneurs and mechanics. Some of their itineraries are pretty pacey.
InGamba offers guided cycling holidays as well as private tours with an itinerary to suit your interests. As with DuVine, the food and wine you’ll sample along the way are integral to the experience. It’s about providing you, the guest, with the best rooms, restaurants and routes that each place has to offer.
If taking luxury cycling tours in Spain, Italy, France or any of their other destinations appeals, InGamba offers private tours. These are for up to eight travellers, and can be chosen from their tour list. Alternatively, the InGamba team can tailor a tour just for you.
Another factor making InGambia stand out is the staff. Theirs have worked as soigneurs or mechanics with some leading cyclists, and even in some cases as pro cyclists themselves. For the professional touch, this cannot be beaten – and just imagine the tips you’ll be able to pick up!
- Where: Arizona, Argentina, California, France, Italy, Portugal and Spain

Trek Travel
Trek Travel was born from the award-winning bike maker, so you’re in good hands wherever in the world they take you.
Trek Travel has been offering luxury cycling vacations for over two decades. The company offers a good range across the board, from national park adventures for active types to e-bike tours for those who like to take things a little easier.

Interestingly, all the operators in our list are USA-based – a fluke or a reflection of the demands of their clientele? We’d love to include some non-USA based operators too, so get in touch if you’re in the luxury market and think we should know about you. Get in touch.

Self Guided Cycling Trips in USA & Canada
The key benefits to self-guided cycling tours in North America are their flexibility and affordability.
As the name implies, a self-guided cycling trip in the United States or Canada trip means that you guide yourself, which allows you the complete flexibility of setting your own daily travel agenda. Start the day when it suits you and stop to admire attractions for as long as you desire.
Supported with luggage transfers, detailed route descriptions and maps to assist with navigation, self-guided cycling trips will provide you with a heightened connection to your chosen destination in the US or Canada, immersing your senses in the sights, sounds, and tastes of the destination.
After a day of cycling, you’ll find your luggage has been transferred to your next accommodation, typically charming two, three, or four-star hotels or inns that embrace the local flavour and style. With modern 21-speed bicycles or electric bikes supplied, you’ll feel the wind in your hair in no time at all!
Most or our North American self-guided cycling trips require only two people to operate and since we transfer your luggage for you, take care of all the accommodation and bike details, you can leave all your worries behind on the pavement and simply focus on the ride ahead to fully soak up the delights of your chosen pocket of the United States or Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions
what is a self-guided cycling trip.
Our wide range of self-guided itineraries across the USA and Canada have been designed to afford you as much freedom as possible to explore what interests you, at your own pace. We take care of the logistics: we supply you with lodgings in charming inns and B&B’s, mountain huts, and 2, 3 and 4-star hotels chosen for their location and local flavour; we provide route maps and information about sites you can visit; we generally include daily breakfast, packed lunches during remote hikes, and often dinner; we organise for your luggage to be transferred daily; on cycling trips we supply rental bikes – typically modern 21-speed bicycles, with the option to upgrade to electric-assisted (ebike) models.
? How fit do I have to be for a self-guided cycling trip?
Fitness is an important aspect of our trips, with each itinerary carefully-graded for ease of selecting the trip that best suits you. Detailed information, including suggested pre-trip training, can be found in the trip notes and pre-departure information. We recommend that you familiarise yourself with the physical requirements of your trip and speak to our staff if you have any questions. View our trip grading system for more detail as to how we grade the activity levels on our adventures and the suggested physical preparation.
? I’m a solo traveller, can I join a self-guided cycle tour?
On a number of our self-guided tours, transfer services are shared so you will meet others along the way and need only pay the cost of covering single room accommodations. On select self-guided tours which operate using private transfer services, we offer Solo Friendly departures; Solo travellers can sign up on these departure dates and we will match them up with other solo travellers. And, for those who are happy to go it alone, there is an option to pay a solo traveller supplement for private transfer services and accommodation throughout. Please check the trip notes or ask one of our agents for more details.
? Are tips included in my trip price?
Tips and gratuities are not included in the trip cost, unless listed under the trip-specific inclusions. Tipping is customary in the USA and Canada but is a completely personal thing. Guidelines are provided in our pre-departure information upon booking.
? What is included in my trip?
It is our aim to ensure that we incorporate as many inclusions as possible in your trip to minimise any out of pocket expenses while you are away. It is important that you refer to our trips notes for the exact inclusions. On most trips, all meals and arrangements are included from the start of the trip right through until the end.
? Do you have family friendly self-guided cycling trips?
Each family is unique in their interests, abilities, and composition. Many of our self-guided tours are appropriate for families with up to two or three children who are physically active and are experienced with the outdoors. Child discounts are listed, where this is possible given the exact tour itinerary and are generally based on a maximum of 2 children sharing a room with 2 full paying adults. Our guided, small group adventures are typically geared toward adult travellers, but we sometimes make exceptions for mature, exceptional children (12 and older) who are accompanied by an adult. Bottom line: Please ask! If our advertised itineraries and pricing do not suit your family, we are happy to customize a tour just for you.
? Can I bring my own bike?
You are welcome to bring your own bike, if you are up for the challenge of transporting it to your tour destination. If you choose to bring your own bike, be sure you notify us well in advance of your trip and we will let you know if any discounts are possible for that specific tour. We do recommend using the bicycles that are included in the tour package as they are good quality bicycles suited for the terrain on which you will be cycling. The majority of our bicycle rentals are replaced each season and we are always sure to tune them up between uses, so you can feel confident in their performance.

Discovery & Cruising
These are our least demanding trips. These journeys of discovery and cruises involve little or no extended activity and are suitable for people with a basic level of fitness and good health. The itinerary may take place in remote areas (with basic facilities) and may involve long travel days on various types of transport. Sightseeing may be conducted on foot and all participants should be capable of carrying their own luggage from vehicle to hotel rooms. These adventures rarely involve camping.
Adventure Touring
These adventure tours may visit remote areas where facilities are often basic. Some of these trips involve camping or basic lodging. These adventure tours will sometimes involve long journeys and rough roads. Sightseeing and optional day walks are often included and these days may involve up to 5 hours of physical activity.
These trips involve trekking or walking, cycling, or paddling for up to five or six hours a day at a slow but steady pace and should never be misinterpreted to mean they are easy trips. Hikes are mainly on well-defined trails with undulating terrain and cycling is on mostly flat surfaces.
These trips involve a combination of what is described in our Introductory and Moderate levels. The emphasis is on introductory activity with some moderate components. Hiking trips typically require carrying a daypack only, but could involve carrying a pack of up to 20 pounds (9kg), depending on personal gear.
These adventures involve trekking, cycling, or paddling for up to 6 or 7 hours a day at a steady pace. Many moderately graded hiking trips involve the carrying of a daypack only, though some may involve carrying a backpack of up to 30 pounds (14kg), depending on personal gear. Hikers should be prepared for plenty of roots, rocks, significant elevation gain, wilderness camping, and potential variable weather conditions. Cyclists should be prepared for undulating terrain and some steep hills.
Moderate to Challenging
These trips involve a combination of what is described in our Moderate and Challenging levels. The emphasis is on moderate activity with some challenging components. Hikers should be prepared for very rugged off-trail hiking, significant elevation gain, wilderness camping, and to carry a pack weighing up 45 pounds (20kg), depending on personal gear.
Challenging
These adventures involve trekking, cycling or paddling in remote areas in variable weather conditions for up to 8 to 10 hours a day (possibly more subject to weather conditions and altitude). Hikers should be prepared for very rugged off-trail hiking, significant elevation gain, wilderness camping, and to carry a pack weighing up to 45 pounds (20kg), depending on personal gear.
These journeys of discovery and cruises are suitable for people with a basic level of fitness and good health.
Suggested preparation: Once or twice a week, we recommend you walk on undulating terrain for an hour, for at least 2-3 months prior to departure.
To enjoy these adventures, we suggest you are reasonably fit, healthy, have a moderately active lifestyle and have a positive attitude.
Suggested preparation: Two or three times a week, we recommend you walk on undulating terrain for an hour or more, for at least 3 months prior to departure.
Our introductory trips are not ‘easy’ trips and you will need a reasonable level of fitness and good health.
Suggested preparation: 30 minutes of aerobic exercise (either cycling or jogging) three times a week for 3 months leading up to your trip.
On these adventures you will need a good level of fitness and be in good health.
Suggested preparation: We recommend 45 minutes of aerobic exercise three times a week from a minimum of 3 months leading up to your trip. This can include swimming, jogging, hard walking or cycling. For hiking trips, hill or stair walking with a 15lb daypack is highly recommended at least once per week.
These adventures require a good level of fitness and be in good health.
Suggested preparation: 1 hour of aerobic exercise, three to four times a week and extended periods of exercise during the weekend. This can include swimming, jogging, hard walking or cycling. For hiking trips, hill or stair walking with a full day pack is strongly recommended at least once per week (or a 30lb pack for backpacking trips).
These trips require an excellent level of fitness and be in good health.
Suggested preparation: 1 hour of aerobic exercise, four to five times per week for three to six months leading up to departure. Hill walking with a full pack in variable weather conditions or on/off road cycling is essential.
On these adventures, you will need to be completely comfortable in adverse weather conditions, have an excellent level of fitness and be in good health.
