Reality Check
Distances per day vary from 35km to 75km; there are options to make some days longer if required. Although there are no real steep climbs or technical difficulties, the route is undulating at times and requires a reasonnable level of fitness. That said, a support vehicle is available at all times on a request basis, which should provide some reassurance, or make the trip suitable for couples or friends of slightly different fitness levels.
Please note that the support vehicle does not follow the group but can be called by your leader to pick you up and take you to your accommodation, should you wish to shorten the ride. There may be a waiting time for the vehicle to arrive at your location (the support vehicle is not available to 'sit out' a section of the ride during the day). We aim to use mainly quiet roads and cycle paths where possible, but sometimes we need to pass busy sections in order to reach the quiet roads on the other side.
Cycling conditions This trip is classified Road and graded B. Please see the introductory pages of the Cycling Holiday brochure or view the grading and trip classification page for more information.

Icons explained
The vast majority of Exodus adventures are adult group holidays. Groups are always small in size. We strongly believe that this adherence to small groups means a better experience for all; more time with your guide, less waiting around and a reduced impact on the communities and environments visited.
Each group is generally made up of like-minded travellers - with singles, couples and friends all joining in together.
All these trips are suitable for single travellers, but if you prefer to travel with clients booking individually, please
see our Solo Departures page.
Most people who enjoy a weekend riding on either trails or roads at home will enjoy a B-grade trip. You need to be in good health and reasonably fit. Ideal for occasional cyclists, or as a more relaxed trip for fitter riders. B-grade off-road trips require no previous experience. Distances on road trips rarely exceed 70 kms (43 miles) per day.
Exodus is always looking to improve our current itineraries and to offer something different. With many new trips this year, there is something unique and different to try every year.
Cycling: Our cycling holidays come in all shapes and sizes; from gentle self-guided trips in the Veneto, to tackling the High Atlas in Morocco, or exploring the length of Vietnam.
Culture: Let Exodus show you a different side to many of the world's greatest cultural attractions.
