"Loved each day for different reasons!"

Sarah, Surrey
(Review obtained from Tour Operator)

We thoroughly enjoyed each day for different reasons! The easy ride from Falkenberg to Varberg brought an unexpected highlight when we came across an old cottage in Morup that was the former home of Swedish sculptor, Axel Andersson. It has been turned into a tiny living museum by the local historical society and downstairs it is still furnished just as it was when Andersson lived there. The upstairs houses all the furnishings and artefacts from the old school that was situated in the building before Andersson bought it as his home. As a bonus, the old lady running the “museum” has one room as a little cafe with coffee, home made cakes and sandwiches which we ate in the very pretty garden! Definitely recommended!

"An exceptional service from [the operator]"

This is our third [operator] holiday in a year and we had a very enjoyable time despite the weather! The bikes were excellent touring bikes and provided in a brand new condition. The repair kit proved invaluable when we had our first puncture on Cycle day 5 from a rogue staple. We had no problems fixing it with the tools provided and Gunnar sent a new spare inner to await us at the next hotel stop. The service from [the operator] has been seamless and all the hotels provided a friendly service. The hotel in Varberg was exceptional with its amazing spa and rooftop pools!

My favourite days were the first and second days riding along the coast and into beautiful countryside.


The service was excellent. Our luggage was always waiting for us at the hotels and we received so much helpful information prior to our trip.

"Our first time with electric bikes"

Dermot, Ayrshire
(Review obtained from Tour Operator)

Day 2, Angelholm to Halmstad, was our favourite. We choose the longer option as a challenge and to utilise the capability of the ebikes, which generally we were impressed with.


It was our first time with electric bikes and were impressed, especially with the fact that the motor managed to negate the strong headwinds.

"A seamless service"

Caroline, Durham
(Review obtained from Tour Operator)

Favourite day was the longest day! This was the stretch from Angelholm to Halmstad. A couple of beautiful beaches, a couple of hills and satisfyingly tired limbs at the end of the day.

We received very responsive and helpful pre-trip information from the sales team, including a helpful heads-up about the weather just before we arrived. A seamless service – much appreciated.


Setting up the Ride with GPS app was a bit of a faff but once we were in it was really helpful. Great that the bikes had the fixings for the mobile phone. Everything was made really simple – we didn’t get lost once…
