Is there a later departuer date in May?

Unfortunately we only have the 1 departure in May 2026 which departs on 9th May 2026. Were you specifically looking for a cycling tour? If not we do have a discovery tour which has later departures in May available.

Are the bikes and helmets included in the price? And do you size the bikes to the individual riders as I am short (152 cm) and don't fit a standard medium bike.

Can this tour be booked on other April dates, as either guided or self-guided? And what would the costs be?

Is the bicycle included? If so what type of bicycle? Is a helmet included? Is any other equipment included?

Yes the bike is included on our Cycle Turkey Trip but you do need to bring your own helmet. Your included bike is a 21 gear Specialized Sirrus V hybrid bike and will be the correct frame size for your height. A water bottle holder is included as well as the facility to fit your own pedals or saddle if you wish to bring them. A support vehicle accompanies the rides throughout the trip. We provide spare parts and take care of the day to day maintenance. All you need to bring is your own helmet.

Can we rent bikes there or do we have to bring our own bikes?

All of our cycling trips will include local hire of bikes for the duration of the trip. E-bikes are also available -subject to availability- at an additional cost.

Do you offer electric bikes for this holiday or any of them?

Unfortunately on this trip we do not have e-bikes as an option. Many of our other cycling trips do if you wish to have a look online at these.

why are there no current reviews the most recent were in 2020? Is the airport serve both Dalyan and Dalaman?

If you select the 'Newest' option on the reviews section it will show the most recent reviews from this year. The airport you would need to arrive and depart from is Dalaman airport.

How would you rate the cycling for this trip? Is it quite mountainous? Is it really challenging? Is it on roads with lots of traffic? We are frequent recreational cyclists who would average 25-40 km per outing

I have been on several other cycling trips in southern Europe. I wondered what the rating was for this trip in terms of difficulty. I also wondered if there was an option to ride in a support vehicle if a person was not feeling energetic

  Traveler•Written September 2024
  In view of the fact that we are required to bring our own helmets and the fact that we would have to share bathroom and even bedroom facilities this may not be the tour for us.
- Explore!Operator•Written September 2024
  Taking your own helmet is a safety aspect of the tour and is the only piece of equipment which is required. The simple homestay, is an immersive experience, where you can sample authentic Turkish traditions and cuisine - however I understand sharing bathroom's and bedrooms would not be for everyone. It may be worth taking a look at some of our other cycling tours where this is not an option.

- Explore!Operator•Written September 2023
  On this tour we cycle 224 km over six days (an average of 37km per day). When not on the plains, the terrain is generally undulating, with some significant ascents and descents, reflecting the spectacular nature of the country. Day 5 is mainly ascent - over the course of the day we climb 1000m. Bear in mind that there is vehicle support at all times, should you need a lift uphill! We have graded the route as moderate.
