Nestled along the shimmering Adriatic Sea lies a hidden gem that captures the hearts of all who coast along its shores—Croatia’s Istrian Peninsula. From picturesque seaside villages to rugged cliffs adorned with olive groves and ancient Roman ruins, this region embodies the essence of Mediterranean beauty.⁠ ⁠ Did you know? Historically, Croatia was caught among the maritime empire of Venice, the landlocked Austro-Hungarian empire, and the Ottoman Empire, which spanned both land and sea. As a result, the region’s cultural heritage bears the fruits of all three of these cultures.⁠ ⁠ But what truly makes Istria special? The people. With their warm hospitality and rich cultural heritage, the locals of Istria welcome you, inviting you to partake in age-old traditions and savor the flavors of their land.⁠ ⁠ Stroll through the cobblestone streets of Rovinj, savor freshly caught seafood in Pula, or indulge in world-class truffles from the region’s forests, each encounter with the people of Istria leaves an indelible mark on your soul.⁠ ⁠ Discover this gem on our “Croatia’s Istrian Peninsula” tour!⁠ Join us with shoulder season dates including May 25, September 7 or 28. ⁠ #CycleAndSavor #CulturalCycling #GourmetPedals #TourDeFlavor #BikeAndBiteAdventures #CulinaryCycles #TasteOnTwoWheels #RollAndRelish #CyclingCuisine #EpicureanEscapes #GlobetrotterCycles #TrekAndTaste #CulinaryJourneys #PedalToPlate #CulturalCyclist #TastingTrails #WanderWheelers #AdriaticMagic #Istria #Croatia

🍦🇮🇹 The great gelato debate continues: where in Italy have you tasted the MOST heavenly gelato? One of our favorite stops in Southern Italy is Arte Fredda in Alberobello. At Arte Fredda, only the freshest ingredients are used, such as the renowned Bronte pistachios from Sicily, or the almonds from the groves along quiet country roads. But it’s not just the ingredients that make this a top gelateria, imagine fruits filled with gelato, cakes painted by hand, and wine sorbets. This isn’t just gelato, it’s a culinary creation. With flavors as exotic as mango, prickly pear and mulberry, there is bound to be a flavor that pleases everyone.

What a fantastic start to the week! Thank you to first-time Alumna, Suzie M. for sharing her incredible feedback about our Bike Across Southern Italy tour! "It was the absolute best trip I’ve ever been on. The riding was challenging, beautiful, and quiet. The hotels were centrally located, unique, and luxurious. The cultural tours were perfectly arranged after our ride, before dinner, and private. Meals and wine pairings were not only delicious, but educational. The guides were so much fun. Warm, friendly, supportive, and super attentive. By the end of the 11 night journey, I felt that I had made new friends/family. It was a superb trip! Can’t wait to hit Corsica/Sardinia in May!" #biketour #adventuretravel #activetravel #luxurytravel

UCI Announces the 2021 WorldTour Calendars

The dates for the men’s and women’s races reflect the rescheduled Tokyo Olympics, plus the continued impact of coronavirus.

The 2021 World Tour season will kick off in Australia with the men’s Santos Tour Down Under from January 19 to 24, then the women’s Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race on January 30 and the men’s edition on January 31. Both the men’s and women’s seasons will wrap up in China in mid-October with the Tour of Guangxi.

The announcement outlines new dates for the 2021 Tour de France, so that it no longer interferes with the Tokyo Olympics. The 2021 edition of the Tour de France was originally scheduled to start in Copenhagen on July 2 and end on July 25; the Tour will now end on July 18, a week before the Olympics begin. Specifically, the Olympic road races will be held on July 24, 25, and 28. La Course, the women’s race , will also be held July 18.

For now, the calendars look very much like those you’d see in a normal year, with the usual spring classics, Grand Tours, and more. The women’s Paris-Roubaix will also make its second appearance.

[Want to fly up hills? Climb! gives you the workouts and mental strategies to conquer your nearest peak.]

Notably absent from the calendars, though, are WorldTour races in America. Since 2006, the U.S. hosted the Amgen Tour of California , but race organizers declared its indefinite “ hiatus ” late last year due to financial issues. Another WorldTour race not taking place next year is the men’s Prudential RideLondon-Surrey Classic in Great Britain.

The UCI also confirmed the cancelations of several races this fall due to coronavirus concerns: the Grand Prix Cycliste de Québec and the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal in Canada, the EuroEyes Cyclassics Hamburg in Germany, and the Boels Ladies Tour in the Netherlands.

The UCI will announce its international road calendar—including ProSeries, Class 1 and Class 2—in September, which should (depending on the coronavirus outbreak) include U.S. races such as the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah, Winston Salem Cycling Classic in North Carolina, Joe Martin Stage Race in Arkansas, Tour of the Gila in New Mexico, Chrono Kristen Armstrong in Idaho, and the new Maryland Cycling Classic .

Cycling Tours & Vacations

• Ways to travel

No big bus windows. No phone screen. No maps, walls or guidebooks. Just your wheels, the wind and the open road. Ride on.

From pedaling through peaceful villages in  Vietnam  and Japan  to cruising down epic, ever-changing landscapes in  Jordan  and  Tanzania , our cycling tours allow you to really immerse yourself in a place, and not just travel through it. Powered by nothing but your legs (and maybe a slice of biscotti and a couple of extra-strong cafés au lait), there’s a nice simplicity to cycling as well as plenty of adventures waiting for you off the saddle. Intrepid style cycling isn’t the Tour de France – you don’t get prizes for coming first and the lycra bodysuits are definitely optional – but we promise it’s a totally unique way to experience the world.

Why choose Intrepid for your cycling vacation

The bikes we use

On most of our trips we use hardtail mountain bikes armed with front suspension. Depending on the country, we’ll use a mix of makes and models like Giant Talon and Trek X Caliber 5, but they’re pretty similar when it comes to form and function. Our bikes are serviced regularly by local experts who know their stuff, and any pesky broken chains or flat tyres can be fixed in a jiffy. You can usually bring your own bike, too (check our FAQs for the logistical info).

Responsible travel

Riding a bike is good for you (even factoring in the odd gelato or Tuscan cellar door pitstop). But it’s also good for the environment. Like all our trips, our cycling tours are 100% carbon offset. Most of the transport is powered by the greenest energy of all: yours. We’ve been certified as the world’s largest travel B Corp, which means when you choose Intrepid, you’re travelling to improve the planet. Learn more about Responsible Travel with Intrepid.

How we give back

There’s something special about Intrepid travellers. You travel differently; you travel with purpose; you seek to leave a positive impact and give back to the people and places you visit. By travelling on an Intrepid cycling trip, you’ll directly support our Intrepid Foundation cycling partner, World Bicycle Relief . Donations provide school children, health workers and farmers in rural low-income communities with durable bicycles, research and mechanics training.

Safety first

We run risk assessments on all our cycling trips and our leaders are specially trained to run cycling adventures, so you can rest assured you’re well taken care of. Our leaders are also trained in basic first aid, and we’ve got a support vehicle that follows the group in case of injury, inclement weather, unexpected and hazardous road conditions, or if you’d like to give your legs a rest.

Small groups

The beauty of small group travel means our groups are small enough to allow you to ride at your own pace, but big enough to connect with others and create a good social vibe. Our maximum group size is 12 people, which we’ve found is a great number to let you get to know your fellow cyclists and also benefit from your leader’s knowledge and experience.

Local leaders

We think the best folks to show you around the heart of a destination is someone who lives there. That's why we work exclusively with local cycling leaders, which means you’ll really get to know the places you’ll be visiting. Our leaders are not just cycling enthusiasts, they’re also your travel guru, teacher and enthusiastic purveyor of local experiences.

Cycling vacation FAQs

What’s the range of cycling tours available.

Our cycling tours span the gamut of two-wheeled challenges: from a leisurely ride through Vietnam to cycling across landscapes of Cuba. Some of these trips include cycling as just one of a number of active adventures, others are more cycling focused (i.e. You’ll be riding almost every day).

Should I bring my own bike on a cycling trip?

To take the hassle out of preparing for your trip, we've included bike hire on all our dedicated cycling tours. Alternatively, you can bring your trusty bike from home. If you're bringing your own bike, make sure you let us know when booking so we can make sure your bike is appropriate for that particular tour. As always, check your Trip Notes for more information. 

Bringing your own bike – If you are a dedicated cyclist or just want to take your bike on a holiday, you can usually bring it along for the ride. You’ll need to box it up for transport on the plane: the easiest way to do this is to go to your local bike shop and ask if they will do it for you (a fee may apply). They often have boxes on hand from old stock and have the tools to remove the pedals and secure your handlebars. Airline fees will also apply, so check with your airline about costs. It's worth remembering not all trips will be able to accommodate your own bike, so let us know what you're planning at the time of booking.

Hiring a bike – The bikes we use are from proven brands, very well maintained, typically less than 3 years old (most are newer) and specifically chosen to suit the terrain you'll be cycling on the trip. They come in the full range of sizes from extra small to extra large and usually have front suspension, flat bars, and 27 gears. The only thing you need to do is advise us of your height at the time of booking. We’ll handle the rest. If you'd like, you can always take your own saddle (seat) or gel over-cover for comfort sake, and if you want to use cleats, bring your pedals and shoes too. 

How do I fly with my bike?

All airlines will have their own rules and fees when transporting bikes. Make sure you contact the airline (preferably) before you pay for your flights to see what charges and requirements they have.

Before you go, you must box your bike for transport. See our section ‘taking your own bike vs. hiring one’ for more information.

What do I have to carry while we ride?

On all of our cycling tours your accommodation is pre-booked and your luggage is transferred from one point to the next. All you have to carry is water, and any snacks or gadgets you may want and a few layers to keep you dry and warm. A small, lightweight backpack may come in handy.

Do I need to pack anything special?

Helmets are compulsory on our cycling tours, so you can either bring your own or (to save on luggage space) buy one at a local bike shop once you arrive in-country. We also recommend you bring your own water bottle/hydration pack, and closed shoes. You may also wish to bring Cycling shorts, and (if you ride regularly at home) your own saddle and pedals. Many of our clients who do not ride regularly find a gel seat cover helpful in making the ride more comfortable. For more info on packing, check out the What to Pack section of your Trip Notes.

How fit do I need to be?

All you need to enjoy our cycling trips is the ability to ride a bicycle and a passion for seeing a destination on two wheels. That’s about it.

While there are occasionally longer days on some itineraries, the vast majority of our cycling days are between 18-37 miles (30-60kms) and are done at a leisurely pace with plenty of opportunities to stop and enjoy the scenery/just take a break. Anyone with a reasonable level of fitness will get by with no troubles.

Our cycling trips are done predominantly on paved roads (with the odd unpaved section), but none of the trips require any specialist cycling skills. We’ve also researched extra riding routes in each of the destinations we visit, so if you want to stretch your legs a bit more, you can.

What sort of safety precautions do you take?

We run risk assessments on each and everyone of our cycling trips to make sure they’re up to scratch, and your cycling leaders have personally ridden every inch of the itinerary in advance. We’ve assessed the road conditions, the level of traffic and any potential blackspots. Our leaders are trained in cycling health and safety, as well as basic first aid, and we usually have a vehicle following us if an evacuation ever becomes necessary. We’ve also made sure our cycling tours depart during the milder months, when the weather isn’t too hot or too cold, so the ride should be as pleasant (and safe) as possible. 

Do I need special insurance for a cycling trip?

Not as a rule. Any injuries you might suffer while riding should be covered by the more reputable comprehensive policies (we can recommend some good brands if you’re unsure of what to get). It’s always important to double check the fine print before departing on your trip, and be aware that (like all Intrepid trips) travel insurance is compulsory on our cycling itineraries.

Traveler reviews

Our favourite cycling destinations.

With little olive groves and hilltop villages on Brac, Korcula’s cliff-top switchbacks and charming local vineyards and nights spent refuelling with fresh seafood plucked straight from the Adriatic, it's like the Croatian islands were built for cycling trips. Get ready for a blur of orange orchards, white pebble beaches and sparkling water to cool off and buckets of tangy gelato, Dalmatian-style.

Don’t worry, we won’t be leading you on any mountain climbs up to the Alpe d’Huez. French cycling for us is more about slipping into the relaxed rhythm of Provencal life. Stop for a picnic with the group by the Gardon River, browse for antiques in Uzes or Tarascon, and ride along quiet country lanes outside Caderousse. It’s tough work, but someone’s gotta do it.

Join us as we get active and cycle from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City. From the tranquil waterways of Mai Chau and peaceful rice paddy roads of Ninh Binh, to the pretty pagodas and colourful lanterns in Hoi An, this mesmerising country is even more beautiful from handlebar height. We promise there'll be piping hot phở and crusty banh mi waiting for you at each stop.

It’s not what you’d call a ‘classic’ cycling destination, but there’s no doubt Morocco is an up-and-comer in the world of two-wheeled adventures. Where else can you cycle silhouetted against the dunes of the Sahara? Swap your bike for a camel? Or spend the night with Berber tribesmen in your very own desert camp? Yep, this isn’t your typical cycling tour.

A cycling trip in Tuscany? Just form an orderly queue. We’ll start on the cobbled lanes of Florence and work our way (in no particular hurry) through the rolling hills of Garfagnana and Barga’s sun-dappled vineyards and olive groves, and then onto the famed towns of Lucca and Pisa. If all that sounds like some Italian black and white movie starring a guy with a moustache, it’s because it is.

Cuba ticks all the culture boxes. Cadillacs, cigars and nostalgia-soaked streets? Um, yes please. But it’s also a rider’s paradise: mostly flat, relatively compact, with a big variety of landscapes. Think dizzyingly colourful stress in Havana, rural villages around Vinales, the pristine beaches of Cayo Jutias and the stunning forests of Las Terrazas. Muy bueno .

Meet our cycling leaders

Our local leaders are all cycling junkies, but they go through some pretty rigorous training before being allowed behind the handlebars of an Intrepid cycling tour. Each leader has undergone on-road supervision and knows how to do safety checks, basic repairs and emergency first-aid. But they’re still regular Intrepid leaders, which means they know the best local bars, cafes and hidden spots (not to mention handling all the logistical stuff). You just focus on the ride.

One of my favourite trips is Cycle Tuscany . We ride from the Apuan Alps down to the coast, followed by a dip in the Mediterranean and a picnic of fresh focaccia and tomatoes. We continue through rural villages, protected wildlife parks and sandy beaches all the way to the medieval jewel of the walled city of Lucca – and that's just in one day. My top tip for an Intrepid cycling trip? Bring patience, an open heart and an open mind. Oh, and trust your legs!
