The routes, landscapes, towns were amazing. Really enjoyed the history and architecture of medieval towns and their friendly.people. Good accomodations and breakfasts. Weather was unexpectedly way too hot which make climbing long hills very challenging. Suggest upgrading bikes to new lighter versions.
Cycle Southern Spain - MurciaVery well organised tour. The route notes were extremely detailed and helpful as the route was quite complicated some days - presumably to avoid busy roads. However the country wasn’t good for enjoyable cycling, being treeless and agricultural, and apart from the White Villages I really only enjoyed the scenery on the third day from Montellano to Arcos when the route went through the hills and along the river on a good Via Verde. On the last day getting out of Jerez took an hour then soon after it was semi-industrial wasteland. The Via Verde between Seville and Carmona was in terrible condition with deep ruts and sand. I was also unlucky to get a flat- the seal at the tube valve failed- and I had terrible trouble changing the tube- the plastics levers not strong enough and the pump nozzle completely stuck. I left a note to the bike hire.
Self-Guided Cycling in Andalucia: Seville to CadizThis tour far exceeded my expectations! The company, IberoCycle, went above and beyond to make my experience memorable and enjoyable. They picked me up from my hotel in Bilbao, gave me a choice of cycles previously prepared for me, and an excellent introduction to the tour materials and resources available to me. I was provided with a whole packet of maps, information on local attractions, and various cycle routes. The hotels booked by the company were clean, conveniently located, and added much to the joy of the trip.
