Individual bike tour or organized bike tour?

If you plan the tour yourself, you have to decide on the route, assess your level of fitness and determine the destinations for each stage. You are also responsible for transporting your luggage and booking hotels. It is easy to underestimate the distance covered and not plan enough breaks. The condition of the bike paths is also often different than expected. With a planned and yet customized bike tour, the planning of the trip is relaxed, as you benefit from the experience of experts and can relax. Hotels and luggage transport are booked for you and the route is tailored to your level. On site, you can then organize your day yourself and take breaks when you want. A guided bike tour has the advantage that you share the experience with a group! You will meet new people who share your passion for cycling. If you have any questions, a tour guide will be available to answer them and tell you interesting facts about the chosen destination.
