The Experience

For free-spirited souls, we offer Greece on two wheels at your pace, on your time, in your style. You are not beholden to the whims and needs of a group. You set your own agenda based on one of our scouted itineraries. Our duty, which we approach with passion and attention, is to facilitate your Greece cycling adventure.

Greece is a safe country, and in the rural areas where most of the tours take place, crime is minimal. As a self-guided cyclist you will always feel secure on your own in this country.

Our self-guided tours have been scouted and vetted for the optimum roads with minimal traffic, picturesque scenery, engaging points of interests and clean, comfortable accommodations with hospitable hoteliers. If you want to add routes or destinations to the tours we have created (listed below), we can customize and organize an itinerary suitable to your cycling profile and interests.

Standard Inclusions

Self-guided tours include standard features found in all our bike tours, such as, the bicycle, accommodations with breakfast, helmet, water bottles, odometer, Ride With GPS routes, cue sheets, maps, CycleGreece jerseys, lite backpack.  Self-guided clients receive these additional necessary items:

• Luggage transfers from one hotel to the next so you are never burdened carrying your baggage while riding.
• If you do not use Ride With GPS , we give you a Garmin GPS device (Oregon 450) with pre-programmed bike routes
• Mobile phone with programmed numbers.
• Additional bike gear: hand pump, rear rack on request, lock, multi-tool, patch kit, inner tubes.

CycleGreece has a tour operator account with the app Ride With GPS.   When you book a tour, we send you a link to all the tour routes to download via internet to your i-phone or Android.  Once downloaded you never have to go on internet to follow the routes during your ride.

 Vehicle Support for 5+ Riders

If your party numbers five or more, we require a company vehicle-driver accompany the group.  The primary purpose for a vehicle is your safety.   The vehicle has a flashing light and a sign in the rear in Greek and English “Caution.  Slow.  Riders on the Road.”   The driver follows discretely behind and is at all times conscious to protect the riders.  Although most of the bike routes are in rural areas which is not heavily trafficked, there is still a concern that Greek drivers are not prepared for a group of cyclists on the road.

The second purpose for a vehicle is for your comfort.  The driver is a bike mechanic ready to fix any issue.    The vehicle carries spare parts so if you have a flat, for example, the driver instantly substitutes it with a fully pumped wheel.  The vehicle carries your day packs, water, ice cooler, first aid kit and luggage.  If you get tired and want a lift, just hop in the vehicle.  It rarely rains, but inclement weather is another reason for a support vehicle.   Also, you can visit desired sites or regions not on the cycling itinerary.
