      Do you provide the bikes in that price

    • Exodus Adventure TravelsOperator•Written October 2025

      The Cycling the Coast of Eastern Crete is a self-guided / independent cycling holiday. There is no guide and no group on this trip, instead it would just be yourself and whom you are travelling with completing the cycle rides and holiday together. To assist in navigating from hotel-to-hotel we provide the route notes via our own Navigation App. Bike hire is included, and to upgrade to e-bikes is £232.00 per e-bike.

    Asked on May 18th, 2023

    Do the travellers have to bring their own bikes or will you provide them with bikes? Also, would like to request the upgrade to an e-bike for one of her fellow travellers. Could you please let me know how much that would cost?

      Traveler•Written May 2023

      Can you confirm if e-bike upgrade is available for the adventure dates - 7-10 October? They would require 1 E-bike and 2 standard bikes and if there is a cost for this upgrade?

    • Exodus Adventure TravelsOperator•Written May 2023

      To upgrade to an e-bike would be £182.00 per e-bike. We cannot offer bike hire to passenger whom is not requiring the trip or a room with Headwater.

    Rebecca

    Asked on April 13th, 2023

    I'd like to know if the "cycling the coast of eastern crete" is guided by someone and if not, how is it organized ? Besides, when we see comments about this tour, some people speaks about walks, some others about a guide. So it's difficult to know which one corresponds to the real one specifically.

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • Exodus Adventure TravelsOperator•Written April 2023

      This is a self guided holiday and so the cycling will be done independently using the Headwater navigation app. We don't include airport transfers in the standard holiday cost however, it is possible for me to arrange transfers to tie in with your flights at an additional price.
