Overview
Welcome to the ultimate frontier of adventure tourism in Southeast Asia. This 11-Day Northeast Vietnam Cycling Tour is meticulously designed for passionate cyclists, endurance riders, and adventure enthusiasts who want to experience the raw, untouched beauty of Vietnam’s northern borderlands. Spanning from the historical valleys of Cao Bang to the towering limestone pinnacles of Ha Giang, this journey is a sublime mix of physical challenge, geological wonder, and profound cultural immersion.
Our unique route forms a seamless, non-overlapping loop that cuts deep into the heart of two of Vietnam’s most legendary terrains: the Non Nuoc Cao Bang UNESCO Global Geopark and the Dong Van Karst Plateau UNESCO Global Geopark. Unlike standard commercial tours, this itinerary is crafted to keep you in the saddle on the most picturesque, low-traffic provincial roads while avoiding dusty highways. You will test your endurance on legendary climbs, including the gravity-defying 14-tier Khau Coc Cha Pass, the towering Ma Pi Leng Pass (one of Vietnam's "Great Four Passes"), and the wild, misty cliffside roads of Lung Ho and Duong Thuong.
To make this challenging terrain highly rewarding and safe, we provide a 100% professional support system. For private groups of 7 riders or more, we deploy a dual-vehicle support fleet: a dedicated air-conditioned passenger mini-bus/bus to transport riders in absolute comfort, alongside a separate custom-designed support truck to safely carry bicycles, spare parts, and heavy luggage. A professional, English-speaking cycling tour guide will ride right alongside you on his own bicycle, managing the pace and offering on-the-road guidance. Throughout the 11 days, you will not stay in any destination twice. Every single night brings you to a brand-new horizon—ranging from charming boutique hotels to traditional stilt-house homestays run by hospitable Tay, Nung, H'mong, and Dao ethnic minorities. Prepare yourself for the ride of a lifetime where every pedal stroke reveals majestic waterfalls, emerald rivers, and deep karst valleys that few travelers ever get to see.

Pac Bo Historical Sanctuary: Explore the birthplace of Vietnam's modern revolution, hidden in a peaceful valley adorned with the crystal-clear, emerald waters of Lenin Stream.
Traditional Ethnic Villages: Experience overnight stays in traditional Nung stone houses in Khuoi Ky, Tay stilt houses in the hidden valley of Du Gia, and explore the ancient culture of the H’mong people in Dong Van.
Nho Que River Cruise: Take a scenic boat ride through Tu San Canyon—the deepest canyon in Southeast Asia—staring up at towering vertical cliffs from the water.
Off-the-Beaten-Path Du Gia & Duong Thuong: Bypass the commercial highway and ride the rugged, raw trail from Yen Minh to the hidden valley of Du Gia, returning to Ha Giang via the mystical cliffs of Lung Ho and the peaceful cornfields of Duong Thuong.

We cannot find a roommate or travel partner for you.
Guided tours: You'd like to join a group or Private. You'll ride, dine, and make new friends with your group mates over the course of the tour.
Look for tours with guided departures.
You're responsible for the single room surcharge.
We can ask the tour operator if there are any other solo travelers seeking a roommate on the departure and tour of interest. Matches are made infrequently.
Bike and boat tours: You'll travel with a group on and off the bike. Bike and boat tours may be guided, self-guided, or both.
Some boats offer single cabins for an additional fee. This fee is often less than the fee for a double cabin for one person.
You're responsible for the single cabin surcharge, as determined by the cabin type.
We can ask the tour operator if there are any other solo travelers seeking a roommate on the departure and tour of interest. Matches are made infrequently.
First, be sure to review the tour's rider level, Surface and Terrain details (under the Program tab), and daily (and average) mileages. This will help provide a full picture of the tour's details.
Then, consider the following:
Are you willing and able (and have the time!) to train up to the tour? If yes, book the higher level tour and start training! Here are our suggestions.
If not, book an easier tour knowing you'll feel more relaxed on tour and less stressed preparing for it (like a rider level Leisure tour!)
Additionally...
Consider an e-bike. They provide a boost when you pedal, making higher-level tours more accessible.
Consider a bike and boat tour or a tour based in one hotel - you'll have options for a rest day or two!
There are a couple of options for partners and groups of varying levels.
Bike and boat tours offer the unique option to skip a day's ride and relax aboard the ship instead of cycling.
Guided toursthat include support vehicles* include the ability to skip a day's ride by riding in the support vehicle, which can also be utilized to shorten a day's ride.
Electric bikes are available on 90% of tours including numerous bike and boat and guided tours. They add a boost to your cycling when you pedal.
*Be sure to review the 'Included services' on the Dates & Prices tab to see if the tour includes a support van.

Definitely! Families with children of all ages can take a bike tour.
Each family's needs and preferences are different, and we recommend family-friendly bicycle tours with families with younger children. Another popular option is tours that are primarily on bicycle paths.
Families with older children (tweens and teens) can consider most any tour based on the family's abilities (rider level) and preferences. Or check out this list for ideas!
Bicycle tours are a great way for your family to explore a region or country. Together you get a feel for a new terrain, the sights and smells, history, culture, and people - experiences that aren't always possible from a train or rental car. Another bonus for parents? Built-in physical activity every day means worn-out kids at night!

Here are some of our favorite tours that offer shorter daily distances, flatter terrain, peaceful settings, and which mostly follow dedicated bicycle paths or quiet back roads. We feel this combination is especially friendly for first-time bike tourists.
And here are some questions we recommend you ask yourself when deciding on your tour.
Self-guided bike tours offer flexibility and independence but maintain a level of support and convenience. Your hotels are booked, your luggage is transported, and you have maps and directions for each day's ride.
Be sure to consider your comfort level with navigating a different culture and foreign language, reading maps and signs, ordering food, and dealing with flats or other minor emergencies - some travelers don't enjoy doing these things, but others find them the best part of an adventure.
If you enjoy traveling with a group, meeting new people, and having a guide and structured daily schedule, then a guided group bike tour is probably the better fit for you.
Select the country or countries you're interested in. If you wish to select more than one country, simply keep clicking on the countries you prefer.
If your search yields too many tours, use the options on the left side of the page to adjust the search results (like departure month, rider level, average daily distance, and type of tour).

There will be steep and sustained ascents and descents. The support vehicle will not always be available. These trips will provide a real sustained workout even for fit and experienced mountain bikers.
Be sure to also review the details under 'Surface and Terrain' and the daily distances for each tour.
Anyone in reasonable shape should be able to enjoy a bike tour. Many tours cover about 15-40 Km per day and are designed for travelers who enjoy a leisurely pace. When you read the tour descriptions, pay close attention to the 'Surface and Terrain' details and daily distances.
We've also included rider levels on each tour to help guide you.
If you're concerned about your ability or it's your first tour, consider doing a Leisure (1) or Easy (2) level tour.
You should be an experienced cyclist (but not necessarily an expert) to do tours rated Moderate(3), Advanced(4), Off Road(5), Challenging(6).

The process of getting a business visa or a tourist visa is generally the same. Most tourists get their visa through a Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate office in their country of residence or in their travels country before entering Vietnam.
For a tourist visa, you will need to submit:
1) Entry permit form (which can vary from one Vietnamese embassies or consulate abroad to another).
2) Two photos (usually 4cm x 6cm or 3 cm x 4 cm)
3) Your original passport
4) Visa fee
The form and the fee can vary by country, so please check directly the Vietnamese embassy or consulate to which you are applying.
A business visa usually also requires a letter of support from your sponsor agency or company in Vietnam. In person, the process usually takes 2-3 days, and by mail, the process usually takes 2-3 weeks, depending on the service you use, although times can vary considerably by embassy or consulate. If you are mailing, please note that you need to make arrangements to have your passport with visa returned to you.
This happens, although rarely. Some tours are subject to a minimum number of participants (but you'd be notified upfront with a provisional confirmation if your departure hasn't met the minimum number of participants when you book). If a tour cancels a tour due to an insufficient number of participants, or any other reason, you'll be refunded any payments you've made up to that time, or you may be able to apply those funds toward another tour. GoldenCyclingTours.com will refund your payment within 15 days of when we receive funds from the tour. Please note that most travel insurance generally doesn't cover cancellation by the Golden Cycling Tours Company except for 'cancel for any reason' policies.
We recommend travel insurance for your bike tour. Everyone's needs are different, but we suggest the following types of coverage:
Trip cancellation and interruption
Travel delay
Baggage delay
Financial default
Emergency evacuation
Depending on your health insurance coverage, you may also want to look at:
Medical insurance
Dental insurance
'Cancel for any reason' coverage
Please note that most travel insurance does not cover Golden Cycling Tours Company cancellation due to insufficient numbers of participants or other reasons unless it specifically offers and you purchase 'cancellation for any reason' coverage. We encourage that you purchase this coverage if you are on tours that have not reached their minimum number of participants at the time you book (this applies primarily to guided group tours).
We don't sell travel insurance, but we recommend you purchase it.
We purchase our personal travel insurance through TravelGuard, BaoViet but please feel free to shop around. Yonder lets you compare multiple companies' policies and prices.
Details on how to get to your hotel will be included in the tour documents we email you before your tour (approximately 2-3 weeks in advance of departure). If that information is missing, please let us know.
Most tour pages include a sample hotel list, under 'Hotels' on the ride side of the Program tab on each tour page. This list represents hotels booked 99% of the time.
In advance of your tour (generally 2-3 weeks prior to departure), we'll email you tour documents, including your hotel list and information on how to get to your starting town and hotel, Golden Cycling Tours operator contacts, packing tips, and other helpful information.
At the time of confirmation we will require a deposit within 10 days.
Your balance payment is due 90 days before your tour departure.
If your tour is confirmed within less than 100 days before tour departure, the due dates are as follows:
Booking from 100 to 45 days before your tour: Full payment must be received within 5 days of when your tour is confirmed. If payment is not received, your credit card will be charged plus 4% processing fee.
Booking within 45 days of your tour date: Your credit card will be pre-authorized for the full amount of your requested reservation plus a 4% processing fee, until your payment is received by us.
Booking within 21 days of your tour date: Your credit card will be pre-authorized for the full amount of your requested reservation plus a 4% processing fee. Once your reservation is confirmed, we will capture the pre-authorization (fully charge your card) and send confirmation and receipt.
As we offer you the same prices as the tour companies, we don't increase tour prices to offset credit card fees. The 4% fee is what the credit card company charges us. Many of the tour companies also charge credit card fees, and many banks charge a transfer fee for paying in a foreign currency (you pay us in US dollars).
Please note that you can avoid the credit card fee by paying by e-check, check, or wire transfer. If you pay by one of these methods, the credit card fee is not applied to your $200 per person deposit.
You may make your balance payment by wire transfer either in US dollars to our US account or in euros to our Euro account. Your confirmation email provides you with a personal payment link. Following that link will take you to a personal, secure payment portal with information on where to wire your balance payment.
More information can be found on our Payments page under 'Balance payments'.
Please note deposits are by credit card in US dollars only.
At this time, we do not offer a personal account feature; however, you will find a personal payment link in your confirmation email. Following this link will show you the amount due (based on a real-time exchange rate).
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need additional help at any time.
Golden Cycling Tours companies will confirm , but please allow at least 3-4 business days for confirmation. In rare cases, it can take 5-7 days. We'll send our confirmation as soon as possible.
On the tour page, you can find the start and end locations of the tour noted on the Program tab in the 'Daily Program' section. General information on how to get to your start/end city is found in the 'How To Get There' section.
When a tour starts and ends in different locations, you're responsible for the logistics in between.
Most travelers fly in and out of the same city and take public transportation from the end city back to the start or vise versa. Trains, buses, and even ferries are all options to consider.
For tours with seasonal surcharges, dates are denoted for each season. The seasonal surcharge is determined by the date of the first day of the tour.
This means a particular surcharge applies even if only the first day of the tour falls in that season (and the remaining days of the tour fall into another season).
Golden Cycling Tours Company provide the tour route, a detailed route description, and maps. You navigate using these items.
At Golden Cycling Tours we have GPS files upon request (to be used on your personal GPS device) and a few offer devices with pre-loaded files for an additional fee. Please check the 'Included services' and 'Prices' details on the Dates & Prices tab of the individual tour page for this information.
You may wish to supplement the above items with your smart phone's navigation. Be sure to take care of any data needs before your trip to avoid additional fees.
Most our tours will encounter car traffic at some point. Generally, this occurs when entering or leaving towns at the beginning or end of each day.
It's important to note, though, that tour operators pick routes not only for historical significance, scenery, and proximity to attractions but also for safe and enjoyable cycling. If the tour ride on roads, they are often back-country or low traffic roads.
For further details, be sure to review the 'Surface and Terrain' information on the Program tab for individual tours.
Still concerned? Consider a tour that's primarily on bike paths!
Such detailed information is provided in the tour documents, which you will receive upon arrival at your first hotel.
The documents generally indicate where there is a town (or towns) along the route in which you can find a place to eat lunch. Some tour documents will even suggest specific restaurants. Alternatively, you can stop at a local grocer and pick up some goodies for a picnic lunch.
For dinner, you can expect to be in an accommodation/location with at least one option, if not many. We suggest asking the hotel staff for a recommendation on where to find delicious local fare!
This will vary greatly based on the tour, but here are some valuable details to keep in mind:
The average person, at a veryleisurely pace, cycles 8-10 mph.
This means that a 15 km day will have approximately 4.5 hours of cycling or less. This leaves plenty of time for exploring and sightseeing!
A majority of our tours are leisure (level 1) and Easy (2) tours. These tours have small to gradual or gentle elevation gains and often have average daily distances of 15 - 30 km or less.
Be sure to review the tour page for the exact details.
There are a couple of different answers to this question. Be sure to review them all.
Forself-guided tours,you will have maps and daily directions. You can use these at your discretion, meaning you are free to leave the route or travel another way if you desire. Your only constraint is to arrive at your destination's hotel each night.
For guided tours,you should stay with the group. This is especially true for bike and boat tours in which the boat has a schedule and it's possible it could leave without you. There are some bike and boat tours in which you can choose to do guided or self-guided - on those tours you do have an option.
Our tours are suitable for all ages and fitness levels, Although the majority of our customers are between 30-60 years old, we see more and more young people and families traveling each year. All tours are great fun regardless of age because everyone shares an appreciation for cycling and travel.
If you are considering traveling with friends or family of different ages, especially children, consider some of the points in our article on family-friendly bike touring.
No, anyone in reasonable shape with a good attitude is able to enjoy a bike tour.
Many of our tours cover about 20-40 km per day and are designed for travelers who enjoy a leisurely pace. When you read the tour descriptions, pay close attention to the 'Surface and terrain' details as well as the daily distances. We've also included rider levels for each tour to help guide you.
If you're concerned or it's your first tour, consider doing a tour rated Leisure (level 1) or Easy (2). Other options for consideration include booking a guided tour with a support vehicle, renting an e-bike, or selecting a bike and boat tour (where you can relax on the boat and skips a day's ride).
Tours rated Moderate, Advanced, Off Road, Challenging are much more enjoyable if you're an experienced cyclist or spend regular time in the saddle.
Both tour types will include accommodations, bikes (whether they're included or rentable) and luggage transfer.
On self-guided bike tours, you're provided with maps and directions, but you're free to cycle and schedule each day as you wish. They cost less than guided bicycle tours but still maintain a level of basic support and convenience.
On a guided group bike tour, you'll travel with a group and a guide for the duration of the tour. The guide provides local insight and a structured daily schedule.
It's important to consider your comfort level navigating a different culture and a foreign language, reading maps and signs, ordering food, and dealing with flats or other minor emergencies. Some travelers don't enjoy doing these experiences, but others find them the best part of an adventure.
Bicycle touring is the act of traveling via bicycle for a period of time through a location.
We believe there is no better way to see a new country or place than by bicycle. Here are a few reasons why we think touring is fantastic. And, in this article, previous company president Jim Johnson explains why he feels bicycle tours are the best way to experience a region or country and its people.
Typically, if you can take or check it on a plane, you can take it on a bike tour. So, generally, one bag under 50 kg plus one carry-on bag per person.
It can vary from tour to tour, so check the 'Included services' on the Dates & Prices tab of the individual tour for any restrictions.
For bike and boat tours, there is limited space onboard. Smaller, collapsible luggage is recommended.
It's generally possible! Self-guided tours are generally the most flexible, while guided and bike and boat tours generally cannot adjust their daily programs or overnight stops. You can also consider taking one our many day tours to supplement your itinerary.
Contact us and let us know how many nights you'd like for your tour, which tour you are interested in, and your preferred average daily distance, and we'd be delighted to get back to you with some options.
It's possible to adjust mileage on many tours. Self-guided tours are generally the most flexible, while guided and bike and boat tours generally cannot adjust their daily programs or overnight stops.
Contact us and let us know how many nights you'd like for your tour, which tour you are interested in, and your preferred average daily distance, and we'd be delighted to get back to you with some options.
It's possible to book extra nights in any overnight location along the route for most tours.
Self-guided tours are generally the most flexible, while guided and bike and boat tours generally cannot adjust their daily programs or overnight stops.
Contact us and let us know how many nights you'd like for your tour and which tour you are interested in. We'd be delighted to get back to you with some options. You can also consider taking one of our many day tours to supplement your itinerary.
It's almost always possible to add an extra night in the start or end location of your tour.
Check the 'Price' section on the Dates & Prices tab of the tour page to see if extra nights are an option. If so, simply include the extra night(s) in your booking request.
To add an extra night that's not on the tour route, we encourage you to book through Hotels.com. Or, if the idea of staying as a guest in a private home appeals to you
This varies from tour to tour. Please check under 'Included services' on the Dates & Prices tab on each tour page.
All the tours we represent include nightly accommodation along with breakfast the next morning. With very few exceptions, luggage transportation from hotel to hotel is also included in the price.
For some people, that's part of the joy of travel: making yourself understood in a foreign country using a combination of gestures, print or online dictionaries, or applications.
That said, English is widely spoken in many destinations, especially in Western Europe, though less widely in rural locations and parts of Eastern Europe.
Either way, don't let not speaking the language keep you from visiting a country. Try to learn a few basic expressions ('Hello', 'Thank you', 'Goodbye', 'Excuse me') and perhaps an advanced sentence or two ('Where is the bathroom?').
Download a language app. We really like Google Translate, which you can even use to scan a menu or sign and get an instant translation. You can speak to it in English and play a foreign translation to your new friend.
If this is still a big concern, consider a guided tour (the guide will speak English) or a bike and boat tour (where most boat staff will speak English).
We tend to recommend not booking optional dinner packages (often known as half-board or half-pension) since it often limits what you can order and when you can eat. You may also find an absolutely wonderful restaurant you want to try out as you explore the town.
However, you may wish to select the dinner plan if one or more of the following are true:
You're with a large party that wants to eat together
You prefer to have as much planned in advance as possible
The price is too good to pass up
You prefer to prepay as much as possible rather than pay as you go
Please note that dinners are already included on most guided tours and bike and boat programs.
We've created a typical day page on our site - split into guided tours and self-guided tours, that will help you visualize your big adventure on the bike. The tour you book might differ in the details, but this will give you a general idea of what to expect.
You can review a list of sample hotels on each tour page in the 'Hotels' section of the Program tab.
Tour operators tend to favor smaller, family-owned inns with more character and personal attention and stay away from chain hotels and larger lodging when possible. Many hotels cater specifically to bicyclists. You will stay in two-, three-, or four-star hotels or inns, and private bathrooms are a given.
Please be aware that many hotels are historic buildings and modern air conditioning is non-existent or limited.
The answer is generally 'yes'. If the tour offers multiple hotel categories, then it's possible (dependent on availability). Please note that not all tours offer different hotel category options.
It's also generally possible to upgrade hotels. This may not be an option for very busy times (no availability) or more rural or remote areas (when there is only one or very few options).
And lastly, this will affect the tour cost. There is no rule of thumb here and costs vary. Please inquire with a Tour Advisor for further details and be sure to let us know which tour you are interested in!
Breakfasts are generally buffets that take your active program into consideration. Self-guided tours often only include breakfast.
Lunch is generally on your own, although some guidedgroup tours decide to pool funds on some days and others enjoy picnics en route. Bike and boat tours often pack lunches in the morning for the day's ride.
Dinners are usually included with guided tours and bike and boat tours and dinner packages are sometimes an option on self-guided tours. Expect either a fixed menu or a few choices, often with multiple courses.
If you have any allergies, restrictions, or other dietary requests, please let us know at the time of booking.
Some tours offer a choice of hotel categories, as noted in their prices.
Category A is generally 3- and 4-star hotels located in a town center.
Category B is generally 2- and 3-star hotels that may lie outside of town.
Tour pages list sample hotels or describe the categories to give you an idea of the type of hotels you'll be booked in on the Program tab under 'Hotels'.
We may send a request to another customer like you but we do not know if they can pair you with another traveler. And if they cannot, you will be responsible for the single supplement.
*Please let us know which tour and which date you would like to join as we may not be able to find another solo traveler.
Generally, pairing is not possible on self-guided tours.
At the end of the tour, there's usually a final night's lodging included. You arrive by bike that day, enjoy a relaxed evening, and depart the next morning. Your package typically ends with breakfast on the last day. Generally, the bikes are left at the last hotel. It's often possible to stay extra nights to enjoy the area even more. In exceptional cases, tours include rides on the last day, and this would be noted in the Program tab.
Guided tours almost always include a support van to help you all or part of the way. Be sure to check the 'Included services' on the Dates & Prices tab for exact inclusions.
On self-guided tours, it's your responsibility to get from the start to end hotel each day, but you can get help. Make sure to keep the Golden Cycling Tours company's service number in case you need advice along the way. In many cases, trains, buses, or even ships may be an option on days when you don't feel like riding. Occasionally, and with enough notice, you may be able to hitch a ride in the luggage van.
Typically, luggage is picked up after breakfast and delivered by 4 p.m. This varies from tour to tour and depends on the number of travelers cycling on the route on a given day. Of course, road and traffic conditions may cause delays beyond the Golden Cycling Tours company's control.
Yes, the hotels generally have Wi-Fi (with the exception of more remote areas). However, don't expect the signal to be as strong or reliable as the one you have at home.
For most self-guided tours, the only meal included is breakfast. It's usually a buffet, meaning you can pick and choose what you would like to eat.
For guided tours and bike and boat tours, oftentimes meals are included. Please be sure to let us know when you book of any dietary requests so that we can be sure to inform the tour operator.
Please note the tour operator may charge an additional fee.
You usually travel along paved bicycle paths or lightly traveled back roads through the countryside or from village to village. Routes are selected for their charm and beauty as well as for their cultural and historical importance.
Especially in Southeast Asia countries, tours often switch to meadow and forest paths or side roads. During some stretches and entering and leaving cities, distances on roads with traffic are unavoidable.
Most programs start in the afternoon or evening of Day 1 upon arrival at your first hotel (or the boat). You don't usually ride that day; it's just a time to arrive and relax. Cycling often begins the next morning.
If you're on a guided tour, there's usually a group dinner the first night followed by an orientation. If you've opted for a dinner package, dinner the first evening is generally included.
Depending on when your overseas flight arrives, you may want to arrive in the start city a day earlier. You'll be more relaxed, and you'll have the chance to explore the city on your own.
In exceptional cases, tours include rides on the first day, but these are noted in the Program tab.
Nothing prepares you for a bike tour like 'time in the saddle'. Even if you excel at other sports and consider yourself a strong athlete, you owe it to yourself to get a lot of riding in before your tour - you use a lot of different muscles riding a bike. Also, when we're out on tours, we hear more people groaning about sore bums than sore muscles! Bottom line (sorry): ride more, and your butt will thank you later!
Each day, you leave your luggage in a secure area that the hotel designates. While you're off riding, the Golden Cycling Tours company will pick up your luggage and transport it to your next overnight hotel.

Please note We strongly recommend you bring your own helmet for those reasons as well.
We can't tell you exactly, of course, but Weatherspark provides information on average and record temperatures for destinations around the globe.
Just type a location in the search box and hit enter to read about seasonal weather patterns. You can click on each of the charts for more detailed information.
Be sure to review the forecasts for your destination as your tour approaches so that you can be prepared for the weather during your tour.
More information is available on our Weather page!
Please check on the Dates & Prices tab under 'Included Services' to see if GPS tracks (files) are available. For the tracks, you will need to provide your own device.
A few tours offer GPS devices for rent, please check the Dates & Prices tab under 'Included Services' and/or 'Prices' to see if this is an option.
No, there is not a group. Self-guided tours often have many departures available, it's not possible to confirm if there are others cycling on the same schedule or to and from the same hotels.
Self-guided bike and boat tours are the exception, while the daily rides are self-guided you may choose to ride with your shipmates.
Sometimes. Road bikes are not available on numerous tours as they are not suitable for the terrain (think ancient cobblestone streets!), or they are not in the Golden Cycling Tours fleet of bicycles.
Most likely, no. On hotel based tours, 99% of the time bikes are left at the final accommodation for the Golden Cycling Tours to retrieve. The specific tour page will have a note under 'Bike rentals' on the Dates and Prices tab if this is not the case.
The bikes remain on the boat on bikeandboat tours.
Please check the details under 'Bike Rentals' and 'Dates and Prices' on the Dates & Prices tab to see if e-bikes are available. Only a few tours do not offer e-bikes.
Well, that depends. Seats vary from tour to tour and person to person.
Most tours we offer are rider Leisure,Easy,Moderate,Advanced,Off Road,Challenging. These tours will be on hybrid touring bikes, which have bigger, more comfortable seats.
If you're still concerned, we'd recommend:
1. Training up to your tour - nothing makes cycling more comfortable than being prepared.
2. Purchasing padded bike shorts, a gel seat cover, or both!
On hotel based tours, 99% of the time, bikes are left at the final accommodation for the Golden Cycling Tours to retrieve. The specific tour page will have a note under 'Bike rentals' on the Dates and Prices tab if this is not the case.
The bikes remain on the boat on bike and boat tours.
We strongly suggest wearing a helmet on all bike tours, and, for hygiene and safety reasons, wearing your own personal helmet.
That said, Golden Cycling Tours rent or sell helmets. Check the 'Bike Rentals' and 'Prices' details on the Dates and Prices tab on each tour page for additional details.
An alternative option is to purchase a helmet upon arrival from a local bike shop.
Here are some packing suggestions if you bring your helmet from home:
Pack it in your purse or backpack. If you have a bigger bag this works great. A helmet is a little bulky but generally doesn't weigh much. And it's a great place to store any delicate snacks while you're traveling.
Pack it in your suitcase. Again, it's lightweight, albeit a bit bulky. We suggest rolling up smaller items, like socks and undies and filling up your helmet. Try to take advantage of all the space!
On the majority of tours we represent, the bikes are upright, touring-style bikes with a cushioned seat. If you want to bring your own seat, be sure to let us know so we can pass this information on to the tour operator.
And don't forget to take it off the bike at the end of your tour!
On most tours, yes, the pedals can be exchanged for your personal pedals.
If you do bring your own pedals, please bring your shoes and also the necessary equipment to change the pedals. If you want to bring your own pedals, be sure to let us know so we can pass this information on to the tour operator.
And don't forget to take them off the bike at the end of your tour!
On hotel-based tours, the hotel will have either a garage area or a bike rack where you will store the bike overnight. When you check in, the hotel staff will direct you to this location.
On bike and boat tours, the boats are equipped with bike storage.
We've been asked this numerous times, and we understand why you're asking.
Unfortunately, no, you can't rent two bikes. This is due to there not being enough storage space (on bike and boat tours) or there being no way to transport an additional bicycle, since that's your method of transportation, from place to place.
Here are a few suggestions, as we want you to have a great time!
If you want a leisurely tour or are on the fence, go with the e-bike. It's a total game-changer, and you won't regret it.
If you want to be challenged, go for the hybrid/road/mountain bike. BUT - prepare and set yourself up for success. Here are some details on training for your tour. And DON'T wait until the last minute!
Consider a different tour. Perhaps this one tour is a little overwhelming, but you would love to do it! Let us know, maybe we can suggest a similar experience that suits you better.
Bicycle rentals are included in the price of some tours and are an additional fee on others.
When there's an additional cost, the bike rental fee will be listed on the tour page. Please review the 'Prices' on the Dates & Prices tab on the tour page.
We strongly recommend that you rent a bike as part of your tour package (which more than 99% of our clients do, most of them with great satisfaction).
Transporting a bike can be expensive and a hassle, especially if you have a bike box you need to have transported.
Equally important, if something goes wrong with the rental bike, the local tour company is responsible for fixing or replacing it. Don't risk missing days of your tour waiting for a replacement part!
On guided tours, the guide will make the necessary repairs.
On self-guided tours, you should be prepared to make basic repairs like fixing flats. If there's a difficult repair, you may have to call the Golden Cycling Tours emergency service number or go to a repair shop in the nearest town. Let the Golden Cycling Tours know, and you'll get reimbursed for repair costs. If necessary, you'll receive a new bike. Since many tours are in the countryside, you may wish to rent a cell phone or get your home cell phone activated for international travel.
This varies from tour to tour. We try to list specific information in the 'Bike rentals' section of each tour page on the Dates & Prices tab. The Golden Cycling Tours has selected the ideal bike for each tour's terrain, and we stick with their recommended bike types.
For most tours, handlebars are upright, pedals flat, and seats and tires wide. The wider tires are more forgiving on the occasional gravel or dirt surface and on cobblestone streets.
Electrically assisted bikes (e-bikes) are becoming more widely available, and are specifically mentioned in the tour listings.
Tandems, child trailers, and tag-alongs (also called slip-streamers or third wheels) are also sometimes available.
Golden Cycling Tours retire their entire fleets every two years to keep their bikes in top condition.
Electric bikes are the great 'equalizers'. If your partner is a strong cyclist, and you're not, the e-bike allows you still to ride together, faster and further. If you're afraid that you'll be the slowest cyclist in a group (rarely the case), the e-bike gives you the confidence to keep up. Or if you just want to take it easy on a more challenging tour, the e-bike comes to the rescue.
Electric-assisted bikes provide power on demand, responding to and complementing your pedaling speed and power. The harder you pedal, the more power the engine gives back.
Electric bikes aren't motorbikes or even mopeds. Instead, they provide power on demand, responding to and complementing your pedaling speed and power. The harder you pedal, the more power the engine gives back. Most e-bikes provide up to 150% of your own power with each pedal stroke. Most also have three settings - high/medium/low - and off. You should still prepare for your time in the saddle, but you'll have more reward for your efforts.
The cost varies based on factors like destination, trip length, and chosen activities. We'll collaborate with you to design a budget that fits your preferences.
No, we accommodate groups of all sizes, including solo travelers. However, some activities might have specific group size requirements, subject to availability.
If you've reviewed all the information about custom tours, asked any relevant questions, and explored our website but still haven’t found a tour that fits your preferences, the next step is to fill out our quick questionnaire to get started.
We understand that plans can change, so we allow minor adjustments even after the itinerary is finalized. Please note that major changes might incur additional costs and extend planning time.
Inquiring about a custom or private bike tour is free of charge. However, once the planning progresses to the stage of reserving dates, securing accommodations, and making reservations, a planning fee or deposit will be required, just as with any booking.
