Just come back from a fantastic cycling holiday in Girona.Catalonia Bike Tours did a great job supplying the hire bikes, thoroughly recommend.Will use again.
Great ride, great service and they’re a locally owned and operated company which I appreciate because my tourist dollars benefit the local community.
We did the Costa Brave self-guided tour and it was fantastic! Great variety of coastline, farmland, natural areas and medieval villages we saw a little of everything. Logistics were handled perfectly and we loved the accommodations. Gerard and his team were a pleasure to work with!
We did a biking tour visiting several medieval towns over several hours. Esch town was beautiful and unique! The experience was wonderful and exceeded our expectations! Service was great… We were picked up right at our hotel; Gerard and his team were friendly and accommodating the whole time!
Our small group of two senior-aged couples from the United States recently completed our second guided tour with Catalonia Bike Tours in May 2024. Gerard had guided us to the Costa Brava two years ago and it was such a special experience that we returned for another tour, this time in the areas near to Vic in the Pyrenees foothills. The e-bikes provided were brand new and easily handled all riding conditions: smooth tarmac, dirt bike paths, rocky mountain roads. A support van was always nearby in case needed. We did have one flat and the van arrived within minutes and the repair was completed efficiently. The restaurants and hotels that Gerard booked us into were stellar and not crowded. In addition to the biking, extra activities were also part of the tour: a walking tour of beautiful Vic, a horse-drawn carriage ride through a beech forest, a drive to a ski station, two hikes to waterfalls, and of course coffee stops along the way in picture-perfect villages. We peppered Gerard most of the day long with questions about the present and past of the areas we were riding through, and we learned so much. Being a native of Catalonia, Gerard seems to know every perfect road, riding trail, restaurant, and hotel that will give riders the trip (or two!) of a lifetime. We can, and do, definitely recommend Catalonia Bike Tours!
Just returning from. Great ebike trip with 5 other mates ( average age 70) . Routes , accommodation. Bikes , support all excellent.I would highly recommend this company .
A friend and I did the 8-day Girona Province Leisure Self-Guided trip in early May and absolutely loved it. Only a born and raised Catalonian cyclist could have shared these incredible off-the-beaten-path routes with us - thank you, Gerard! The rides were primarily on quiet country roads and trails, and offered a diverse array of beautiful scenery. We chose the middle of the road "Comfort" level accommodations and they were all outstanding, and added immeasurably to our trip. Neither of us had ever been to Spain and this was the perfect way to visit Catalonia, which is just gorgeous. Some of the scenery and cycling reminded me of Burgundy. The routes were easy to follow and all of the details were meticulously attended to. I loved this trip so much that I would go back and do it again (and likely will with other friends who now can't wait to go). Thanks for a truly remarkable experience, I loved every minute of it!
"Our 5-day, 6-night trip with Catalonia Bike Tours was a wonderful cycling adventure from start to finish! They provided us with well-maintained bikes and essential accessories, ensuring each ride was smooth and enjoyable. The accommodations along our route were meticulously selected, offering comfort and relaxation after each day of exploration. Gerard was helpful to make adjustments to our itinerary, accommodating our needs and holiday period. With their personalized service and local expertise, Catalonia Bike Tours transformed our journey through Catalonia's stunning landscapes into an unforgettable experience for my husband and me. A heartfelt thank you to Gerard and all the team members who made this trip so special!"
After having an incredible experience with Gerard a few years ago on the Costa Brava we decided to return for another bike trip. Gerard designed a custom tour for 4 of us that wound it's way around the pre-Pyrenees region. It was 5 days of riding on bike paths with amazing scenery, boutique hotels, fantastic food and wine and the wonderful company of Gerard and Guillem. I have traveled throughout Spain and Catalonia on many bicycle and motorcycle tours for the past 10 years. Each region has it's own special qualities and unique history. I can honestly say that the experience I've had with Catalonia Bike Tours, and Gerard in particular, is the best of the best! If you book a self guided tour every detail will be taken care of. If you are lucky enough to ride with Gerard...you will have an amazing experience (and also make a wonderful new friend).
We were staying in Vic (Catalonia) for a few days and decided last minute to rent some bikes for 3 days. CBT where able to deliver 2 top range electric mountain bikes within 2 hrs where we wanted with all the accessories we needed.Unfailing helpful. Sorted out puncture and made great route recommendations.I would definitely use them again when visiting Catalonia and the Costa Brava. Thank you to the team and great rides around Vic
We have just completed the four-day Costa Brava self-guided trip. All the routes took us to interesting places, were nice cycling, with little time spent on busy road. The hotels were good, especially Moli del Mig in Torroella de Montgri. Gerard was very attentive to our questions prior to the trip and helpful during it. All in all, it did what it said on the tin, very well!
Excellent service. Gerard and team are patient, flexible and professional. The bikes are excellent. We had an accident with one bike and they delivered a replacement that same evening so the rider could continue with the group. Top service and top bikes.
Our family of five (two adults and 3 teenagers aged 13-17) had a blast biking along the Costa Brava with Gerard and Catalonia Bike Tours! We spent one day biking along the coast and then kayaking, and another inland biking through sunflower fields and through medieval towns. The bikes were great, the vistas beautiful and varied, and Gerard paced and planned our days perfectly. For half of the first day, our daughter felt under the weather--and Gerard had her ride in the van with his lovely and kind partner until our daughter felt well enough to re-join us (thanks to the bikes being electric, she was able to do so). Our daughter told us she still had a terrific day, because Gerard and his team were so nice and engaging, and she got to practice her Spanish. We highly recommend Catalonia Bike Tours!
What an incredible experience! Gerard took my husband and me on a wonderful tour of Costa Brava. He was patient with my lack of experience on an ebike, but supportive and encouraging. The sights were absolutely breathtaking and his insights made it all the more special. I can't recommend this highly enough. Anyone in the area (or Barcelona) should enjoy this experience.
The entire experience was incredible, from the first contact, the planning and execution of the trip, everything was wonderful.We took a 5-day trip with 4 days of bicycles, incredible places, wonderful views and very good treatment from our guide Gerard who was always on top of everything. 100% recommended.
This was an amazing experience. We did the 3 day, self guided tour (I’m sad I didn’t get to do the 2nd route in the four day series but will have to come back). Everyone we worked with (Montse and Girard) was thoughtful and conscientious about the service they provided. For example, CBT provided us with well maintained Canyon bikes fit exactly to our dimensions and preferences (they met via zoom to orient us about the biking landscape), met with us at our convenience when we arrived in Girona, arranged wonderful hotels to stay at, including the lovely Del Moli del Mig in the countryside outside of Torroella de Montgri, transported our luggage from hotel to hotel, and provided us with great routes through Ride With GPS (you cannot do these routes without it). The routes were everything Girard said they would be including the Els Angels climb on the last day.
We booked a 5-day self-guided tour of the Costa Brava with Catalonia Bike Tours and had an absolutely incredible time. The bikes that two of us rented were very nice and in great condition (Canyon Endurace with eTap) and had just the right gearing for the many iconic climbs on the route. The route plans were impeccable, taking you through quiet scenic countryside, well-renowned climbs, stunning descents, gorgeous towns of many flavors and sizes along the coast and of all modern and medieval eras. There is such a unique charm to riding in Catalonia, the other riders always wave, the drivers are always courteous. I can't wait to come back to experience it again. The only thing we are sad about is that we've already experienced it for the first time, and we can't get that initial feeling of astonishment back again.
I had a fantastic experience with Catalonia Bike Tours recently. They were incredibly on point with every detail. They picked me up at the train station and drove us to the first hotel. They organized lunches and dinners for us and luggage transport between hotels. The support van driver and our tour guide were kind, funny and instantly part of the group energy. Our guide was Cristina, who worked closely with our Support driver and 'back up guide', Miquel.We ate local food and stayed in gorgeous locations at very nice hotels.I highly recommend Catalonia Bike Tours and would book with them again in a second.
We had a super Costa Bravo bike tour with Catalonia Bike Tours. We did 4 days of self guided biking starting and ending in Girona. We stayed in the towns of Girona, Pals, and Platya de Aro and they were each unique and wonderful. The hotels were top notch! We loved going to the beach and swimming in Platya de Aro and the walled village of Pals and hotel we stayed in were fabulous. The bikes provided were perfect and Catalonia Bike Tours was very supportive, checking in most days to see how things were going. The app was a little tricky to use in the busier towns but we always managed. Overall this was a bike trip and company I highly recommend!
My family of four took a 4 day self guided tour from Girona to Platja D’aro to Pals then back to Girona. We rented bikes and they were amazing. 3 canyon gravel bikes and a Scott ebike for my daughter. They were immaculate and great bikes. The route was excellent, the app worked great and the riding was a lot of fun. Nice mix of everything and the bikes were up to the challenge and the right tool for the job. Transfers to and from Barcelona went off without a problem. Montse helped us out of a self induced problem, going above and beyond. Gerard and I traded sport food and had great a great chat on the way to Girona. The towns we visit Ted were amazing and well chosen. I’d go again in a heartbeat. We did over 200 km in four days with a 15 and 12 year old. It was just awesome. Thank you!
