Top 5 Destinations for Cycling Tours in Europe

Italy

Saddle up for an Italian adventure where every pedal stroke blends culture, carbs, and countryside charm. Wind your way through wetlands dotted with flamingos in Sardinia, spin past fairytale trulli houses on our Cycling Puglia to Matera tour, or chase cannoli and coastal views on Cycling in Sicily. From Renaissance cities to the pastel-colored towns of the Amalfi Coast, every ride is a story – and a feast. Explore the full collection of Italy cycling tours. Just don’t forget, gelato stops are practically mandatory.

Portugal

Pedal your way through Portugal’s soul on our Portugal cycling tours—where sleepy fishing villages, castle-topped hills, and custard tarts await. Follow the Atlantic coast on our Porto to Lisbon Atlantic Ride, or tick off scallop shells and seaside charm on the Coastal Portuguese Camino. Whether you’re riding past towering dunes and pine forests or café-hopping in Lisbon, the scenery is as satisfying as the seafood. Expect quiet country roads, sweeping ocean views, and the satisfying hum of tires on the pavement.

The Baltics

Three countries. Countless castles. One unforgettable ride. On our Cycle the Baltics tour, you’ll bike mostly quiet backroads from Estonia to Lithuania, gliding past forests, sandy coastlines, and fairy-tale spires. Along the way, you’ll explore medieval old towns, wind through stunning national parks, including Lahemaa and Curonian Spit, and swap handlebars for history in Tallinn, Riga, and Vilnius. A visit to the iconic floating Trakai Castle rounds off this incredible multi-country tour. It’s smooth riding, ever-changing scenery, and just enough cobblestones to keep you on your toes.

Spain

From pine-fringed coves to Roman ruins, our Spain cycling tours reveal the country’s most scenic routes. Follow coastal trails and wetland paths on the Cycling the Mediterranean Coast trip, or bike past rugged cliffsides and surreal seascapes that once inspired Dalí on our Cycling in Girona and the Catalan Coast. Prefer pilgrims to painters? Our Cycling the Camino de Santiago leads you deep into Galicia’s sacred heart, past Baroque churches and lush countryside. Spain, seen from the saddle with our expert local guides, is anything but ordinary.

Planning Your Cycling Trip to Europe?

I did this tour in June 2026 and enjoyed it so much, inspire of having no experience cycling on the open road. The tour guide Matteo was wonderful, and I felt very safe and well looked after. The accommodation was very good, the first accomodation at Feudo Bauly was superb, I only regretted not staying there for couple of nights before the tour started. Beautiful pool. A very friendly group on the tour as well, mixed ages and all socialised together really well, with Mateo joining us for group dinners at terrific restaurants he knew. I will definitely book another cycling tour with Exodus again.

Heather Rose Cycling in Sicily

Perfect cycling roads and paths through forests and near the lovely coast – and once actually on the beach. Brilliant guides, extremely interesting history and varied food. So flat that it’s also suitable for non cyclists. A unique opportunity to experience three countries and cultures. Lucky to have such an interesting group too and I really appreciated spending time with non Brits! And I was really impressed with all 3 countries which achieved independence from the USSR only 35 years ago – and their transformation is inspirational.

Susan Lucas Cycle the Baltics

As an Exodus staff member on an educational trip, I had the opportunity to experience this adventure first-hand, and it exceeded expectations. The cycling was both challenging and rewarding, with stunning scenery ranging from vast steppes and mountain passes to forests and river valleys. Wild camping under star-filled skies and experiencing Mongolia’s nomadic culture made this a truly unique journey. A fantastic trip for confident cyclists looking for adventure, incredible landscapes, and an authentic cultural experience.
