Water Lovers: Top 5 Ciclismo Island Tours!

If you’ve never been on an island biking trip, a lot could come to mind when considering island life on these many pearls of the sea. Maybe you think of old fishermen with long white beards pulling in the morning’s catch or local vendors yelling the prices of the daily catch over the bustle of the crowd.

Calling all water lovers, come join us on our jewels of the crown: our Top 5 Islands to cycle!

#1 Mediterranean Island Hopping

Experience French and Italian cultures back-to-back as we cycle and literally “”hop”” through spectacular limestone mountains and along stunning ocean front cliffs! Come splash, spin, and sparkle on our Mediterranean Island Hopping trip.

#2 Marvelous Mallorca

On our Marvelous Mallorca trip there is stunning and varied scenery in all directions: Spanish monasteries on mountaintops, dramatic cliffs that drop into the sea, ochre houses with green shutters and balconies full of flowers. The cuisine of the island has been influenced over thousand of years by civilizations that have come and gone. It’s simply maaahvelous!

#3 Ireland

Experience eight days of heaven along Ireland’s Dramatic West Coast. Cycle gently rolling paved roads through emerald fields, and along the coast to a variety of pub-filled, traditional Irish towns. The spirit and smiling eyes of the people is wrapped around every turn. You’ll find yourself transported to another era as you wait mid-ride for a farmer and their herd to cross!

#4 La Bella Sicilia

La Bella Sicilia never ceases to amaze us all in her relentless glory and astonishing beauty! As Goethe wrote in 1817: “”To have seen Italy without having seen Sicily is not to have seen Italy at all, for Sicily is the clue to everything……such a splendid springtime view as today’s at sunrise we’ve never had in our whole lives.””

#5 Savor Sardinia

Savor Sardinia brings us from the saddle to the table, while we discover a whole new world of distinct island landscapes and a blend of nationalities–from its rugged interior and breathtaking coastline to its diverse blend of Spanish, French, Italian, and Moorish cultures. Our daily feasts involve special plates served up by incredibly warm Sardinians–in bountiful spreads of sheer joy.
