Cycling through breathtaking landscapes, conquering challenging climbs, and discovering new regions—a cycling holiday offers all this and more. We often get questions from people who are unsure if it’s right for them. So here are eight reasons why booking an organized garvel biking trip with Bike Travel Europe is a great idea.
Our trips are led by experienced guides who know the routes and the region inside out. We offer not only technical support but also provide valuable tips and advice. This not only boosts your safety but also your enjoyment. Whether you ride fast or slow, and whether you’re male or female—it doesn’t matter. What matters to us is that everyone enjoys the experience on the bike.
One of the most appreciated aspects of our trips is the fact that all routes are carefully planned in advance. We make sure you ride the most beautiful and diverse routes suited to your level. Because we know the area well, we can offer practical tips, and we’re aware of things like road conditions. Just follow the group, and you’ll find yourself riding through stunning scenery.
Mechanical issues can ruin a trip. That’s why we’re well-prepared. We’ve completed maintenance training to handle common technical problems, and we carry spare materials to get you back on the road quickly. Whether it’s a flat tire or a broken chain, we’ve got your back. We’ll even change your flat with a smile. 😊
People often describe our trips as relaxed and super enjoyable. Everyone shares the same passion for cycling, which creates an instant connection and fun group dynamic. After the ride, the stories, laughs, and photo sharing begin. Of course, there’s always more than just “bike talk”—there’s room for every kind of conversation.
The only thing you have to do is ride—everything else is sorted. No stress about booking hotels or finding a good coffee stop; it’s all arranged for you. This saves you time and hassle—time you could spend on the bike! 😉 We also provide sports drinks and energy bars, and we check your bike daily to make sure everything runs smoothly. You just focus on the views, the vibes, and the kilometers. We choose our hotels based on comfort, charm, and top-notch food.
Safety is our number one priority. Our guides are trained in first aid, and they know the routes thoroughly—including any risky or challenging sections. We also speak the local languages, just in case a doctor’s visit is needed (though that’s never happened). Plus, there’s a support vehicle at the accommodation for emergencies—though, to be honest, we’ve never had to use it.
Our groups include both men and women, creating a welcoming and positive group dynamic. It’s not about who gets to the top of the climb first or dropping each other—it’s about exploring new destinations together in a relaxed and supportive way. It’s all about the shared love of riding.
Nothing is mandatory—but everything is possible. We adapt routes to the fitness levels and desires of our group. Want to do fewer or more kilometers? That’s absolutely fine. Feel like testing your legs on a longer climb? Go for it. We provide options and adjust where needed. After all, everyone should finish the ride feeling fulfilled and happy.
On an organized gravel bike trip with Bike Travel Eurpe, all you need to do is enjoy and keep pedaling—we handle the rest. With professional support, scenic and varied routes, and the opportunity to meet like-minded riders, this is the recipe for an unforgettable cycling adventure.
