"The location is idyllic for bicycling.
The optional distances are perfect for enjoying
the journey, and the islands make you feel
a million miles from the stress of daily life.
The leaders were unbelievable –
absolutely the best.
We’ve traveled with 3 touring companies and
all have been fun but this was by far
our best overall experience."
