Thank
you very much for a fantastic holiday. We’ve had a wonderful
time. Great cycling route starting in the foothills of the
Pyrenees and ending up at the coast. Excellent hotels and
great recommendations for eating, drinking and beaches.

We
loved the flexibility of this trip as we wanted to do more
kilometres than the proposed itinerary. Alan and Vivian were
happy to tailor the trip to our needs and always ready to
offer advice and ideas. We stayed in some great small hotels
in some stunning settings run by the owners who were really
committed to making our holiday special.

Alan
and Vivian, I want to thank you both for all the time and
care you took preparing for, and supporting us on our cycling
holiday. We had such a wonderful time and so many highlights.
For me the cycling day to the artisan olive producer, Can
Solivera and Pubol castle, the boys loved the
kayaking and snorkelling and we all really enjoyed our tapas
evening in Palamos. Your choice of the Hotel Mas for us as
a family was perfect, we enjoyed the extra space in the self
contained annexe. The setting was perfect and very peaceful,
yet within walking distance to the centre of Calonge's market,
shops and restaurants and only a 15 minute cycle to the beach.
All of this contributing to a holiday that was so easy to
enjoy from the first minute to the last.

Cycling in Catalonia
One
of the best holidays I have had. Alan and Vivian were terrific
in supplying what we needed at the start, gave us terrific
bikes and maps and suggestions based on their great local
knowledge. One of the highlights of the tour was cycling to
Castell Pubol the home of Gala created by Dali - what a gem
of a place.

The most memorable part of our holiday
was the breathtaking beauty of the Costa Brava countryside.
Vivian and Alan gave us wonderful local suggestions to purchase
indigenous products, it was great fun to visit a local vineyard.
All of our accommodation was wonderful. Vivian and Alan helped
with so many details above and beyond our bike tour making
the experience so enjoyable and rich.
