I loved every minute of it. Perhaps a little more cycling on the last day - we all said we could have carried on another 20/30km. Least favourite tour was around Kochi.

What our customers ask about Bicycle Tours & Trips in India
What are the most scenic cycling routes in India I can experience?
India's cycling routes span from Kerala's backwaters to the high-altitude passes of the Western Ghats. The route from Alleppey winds past local villages and spice gardens while Rajasthan's paths connect the desert cities of Jodhpur and Jaipur. A TourRadar traveler noted "Cycling through beautiful landscapes while avoiding the monkeys sunbathing on the road and enjoying the fantastic rural countryside was an unforgettable experience." One notable path descends from Ooty starting at Hotel Fortune Resort Sullivan Court through eucalyptus forests before reaching tropical Kerala.
What are the typical daily cycling distances on India bicycle tours?
India's cycling tours cover between 40-80 kilometers each day based on the region. Kerala tours often include 60-kilometer stretches through Kumarakom's quiet backroads. The Rajasthan routes average 40-50 kilometers through the Aravalli range. The challenging Munnar to Periyar stretch extends to 100 kilometers with elevation changes. As one TourRadar traveler shared "The cycling allowed us to see and visit areas that otherwise we would have been unlikely to see." Support vehicles accompany all routes for riders needing rest.
What type of accommodation can I expect on multi-day bicycle tours in India?
Accommodations range from colonial-era hotels to modern resorts and traditional boats. Fort Kochi offers stays at the Dutch Bungalow while Udaipur features rooms at the Paras Mahal Hotel overlooking the Aravalli Hills. Kerala's houseboats provide private rooms with attached bathrooms. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The accommodation was outstanding especially the houseboat! And the food - just way too much! Don't expect to lose weight on this trip!"
What is the best time of year for cycling tours in India?
Each region has its prime cycling season. Kerala and South India welcome cyclists from October through March when temperatures stay moderate. The Ooty highlands remain cool year-round particularly at night near Fortune Resort Sullivan Court. Rajasthan's cycling season runs October to March avoiding summer heat and monsoons. One TourRadar traveler reports: "It got chilly in the evenings in December in Ooty though apart from that it is HOT HOT HOT and HUMID!"
What level of fitness is required for cycling tours in India?
India's cycling routes need moderate fitness levels with daily rides lasting 4-6 hours. The Kerala routes mix flat coastal paths with Western Ghats climbs. TourRadar guests at Tea County Resort in Munnar note that combining heat with hills demands good stamina and prior cycling experience.
What kind of cultural experiences are included alongside the cycling?
The routes connect cycling with local life through spice farm visits cooking classes dance shows and village walks.
