On our guided biking vacations, you’ll follow carefully planned routes with an experienced local guide, traveling as part of a small group and staying in hand-picked accommodations along the way. We take care of the day-to-day logistics, so you can concentrate on the ride and the places you’re passing through.
On many tours, you can choose to upgrade to an e-bike while other members of your group ride standard bikes, so you’ll still share the same journey and group experience.
Yes, some of our biking vacations are suitable for beginners and recreational riders, and choosing an e-bike can provide extra assistance along the way. However, you’ll still need to pedal, steer and handle the bike confidently, so you should be comfortable riding a bike.
Every tour is graded by Activity Level, making it easier to choose an itinerary that matches your confidence and fitness. Detailed Trip Notes explain daily distances, terrain and other useful information, so you know what to expect before booking.
Fitness requirements depend on the tour you choose. Some biking vacations follow gentler routes, while others involve longer distances and more challenging climbs. An e-bike can make these more manageable, but it doesn’t remove the need for a reasonable level of fitness.
Each Exodus itinerary has an Activity Level based on factors including daily distance, terrain and elevation, giving you an idea of how demanding the tour will be. Trip Notes provide additional detail, outlining daily riding distances, elevation and route conditions. This should help you understand the daily rides and decide what feels realistic for your experience and fitness. Remember that choosing an e-bike doesn’t change the Activity Level of the tour. If you’re unsure, our team can help you choose a trip that suits you.
