Frequently Asked Questions

Self guided cycling tours do require participants to be adaptable and able to solve issues whilst on tour.  On call support is included in your tour, but it is expected that you will know how to repair punctures and make minor adjustments to gears, handlebars and seats if required, and if bringing your own bike then this is expected. For anything more serious, The Operator will be able to assist with a call to our 1300 665 330 number at any time during your trip.  You should be able to read a map and follows directions, either on a device or a printed map (supplied) and that you have a good sense of direction.   Getting a little bit lost, or having to ask locals for directions is all part of choosing to travel on a self guided basis.  The maps and directions provided to you is updated regularly and tailored to your specific trip (hotels, restaurants are noted, and marked).  

We book for you comfortable hotels, mostly 3.5*, with en-suite shower/bath facilities. Hotels are well located to enable you the freedom to explore the local area without a vehicle. Large groups can be catered for but may require additional transport from the trail.

Meals are included where indicated, and the restaurants are carefully selected for cuisine and ambience. Most venues cater for specific dietary requirements.

Bikes are available for hire. Choose from well-maintained hybrids, kids or ebikes, perfect for this style of cycling. Comfortable, easy to use, puncture resistant tyres, rear rack, water bottle holders and light saddle bags and comfortable seats. Or BYO bikes are welcomed.
