Welcome to RIDE Holidays | Cycle Tours

Specialist in Providing Bike Tours and Holidays on 2 Wheels

RIDE Holidays cycle tours are achievable for anyone who rides a road bike, not just the serious cyclist. Generally - there are three rides to choose from - the less challenging 'cappuccino' (60km), 'latte' (80km) and the espresso - for those keen on 100km or more. We encourage non-riding partners (Team Macchiato) to join us. To ensure they enjoy themselves equally, we tailor events and activities throughout the tour for them. They won't just be sitting in the back of a van watching cyclists.

Our guides are ego free. Our rides are not races. But neither is it a baguette and basket type tour either. You will be challenged which is why we provide a 10 week training program for each trip. The hotels we use are picked for location and are generally 4 star. It's important to us that you eat and drink well. It's more than just a bike tour. We use a combination of local and Australasian staff.

To insure consistency one of us will be on each trip. That is our guarantee.
