Angela and Robert provided most excellent service! Even though we might have been touring during some of the hottest days of the year, they were there for us all the time and we never felt that we couldn’t call for help! A great itinerary, just perfect for us, the distances were spot on and the accommodations were perfect. The biggest…
Great trip. Everything ran like clockwork from our turning up earlier than we’d said, to find Emma and the bikes already there, until the end when she came out early to pick them up. Instructions were great, bags always waiting for us, ferry on time, and no problems with the bikes.
Emma helped us set up a custom cycling trip (based on one of her tours) that turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. She was so helpful and watched over us throughout the trip. We could not have asked for a better time. If you want to slow down and see some great areas outside of Sydney, we recommend you contact Australian Cycling Holidays.
“There were so many wonderful aspects to our recent tour I’m not sure where to begin. The routes were carefully researched and the maps and notes easy to follow. As someone who has previously researched my own touring routes, it was such a relief to be able to rely on your thorough preparation. We rode through many different landscapes. For me that what cycle touring is all about. Each day was readily achievable, but with enough challenges to keep it interesting. The accommodation was of an excellent quality and you were personally supportive and attentive to our needs even though our tour was unsupported.
Upon reflection, I think that this tour would be an excellent training tour for a longer distance tour. Certainly at the end we felt as though we had only just started and would have happily replicated the expeience several times over. I only hope that there will be many who take the opportunity to cycle your routes and that have as much enjoyment in doing so as we did.”
“We had a great week! That coastal walk was stunning and the boat transfers were a real highlight. It was great to mix the cycling in with other activities.”
Brilliant Tour with Beautiful Scenery
We did the 6-day “Coastal Escape” tour which starts at Waterfall station, south of Sydney and ends at Jervis Bay. The chosen route was beautiful with great country and coastal scenery, beautiful beaches. Logistics were also great: hotels and baggage transfer worked a dream. Highly recommended.
