Tips to enjoy your cycling holiday

A cycling holiday is one of the best ways to explore a new country or see a new side to a location you’ve previously visited. From the saddle, you’ll be able to get closer to the landscape, the people and their culture. So, if you are planning a bicycle holiday this year, here are a few top cycling holiday tips to help you have a wheelie good time:

1.     Perfect planning

What type of trip are you planning? Are you a seasoned, independent traveller who’s going to go it alone? Or will you take advantage of a self -guided or guided cycling holiday?

Corsica and the Artisans' Route

Sometimes, sun and beaches just aren’t enough. Getting a nice tan in Ibiza or Majorca can be a top priority for some, especially when you live in a cold and rainy country and wear a mac 24/7, but these long hours spent on the beach can leave you wanting for something a little more special.

Our job at Europe Active has always been to plan and customize trips with bouncing ideas that aren’t usually found elsewhere.

Hairy Bikers

An open letter to the Hairy Bikers; why you should come to Corsica.

Dear Hairy Bikers,

If you’ve not been to Corsica, then it’s about time you did.

The island

It really is one of the last hidden gems of Europe and is a MUST SEE in everyone’s life time. Both the French and the Italians have strongly influenced the island and its food; and yet, Corsica stands proudly and fiercely in its own culture and traditions. Corsica can only be described as unique, in terms of its people, its language, and its landscapes and importantly to you, in its cuisine.

Want to ride your own bike on Corsica, but don’t want to waste time driving down through France?  We just might have the solution for you...

A motorbike holiday on Corsica; nothing could be more idyllic.  You like the look of our rental bikes, and you quite fancy a tour on our new BMW GS800 but you’ve grown rather attached to your own motorbike and finally you have the opportunity to open up the throttle and take it on a proper journey.  But wait the drive to Dover, the ferry crossing to France and the long journey across the continent (which you’ve done before) are not an incentive.  Your pillion will be complaining before you reach the Côte D’Azur.  So, what’s the solution?
 

Why not fly in comfort to Nice, where your bike will be waiting for you?
