Sportive Breaks has partnered up with Active on Holiday to offer a great selection of self-guided leisure cycling holidays throughout Europe. These tours are ideal if you want to ride a bike on holiday at a more leisurely pace, rather than chasing down a fellow competitor or a KOM!
There are over 80 cycling tours to choose from, including popular routes such as the Danube Cycle Path, Alpe Adria Cycle Path, and the Rhine Cycle Route. You can also choose more challenging rides around Tuscany, Majorca, and Madeira. All the cycling tours include digital mapping, luggage transfers, and high-quality electric bike and touring bike rental options.
If you are thinking of making your 2024 holiday plans now, our 2024 cycling holiday season is now on sale and available to book.
We have a wide choice of cycling holidays available on our website and we believe that it is important to choose a cycling holiday that is suitable for your cycling ability and skill level. For this reason, each cycle tour has been graded by our expert team.
Regardless of whether you would like to cycle on an easy or a more challenging route, every tour has been profiled by our logistics team and is clearly labelled on our site. You can book your next cycling holiday with confidence knowing that you have all of the tour information before making a booking.

Electric bikes are available on all of our cycle tours and are ideal for those looking to go on a cycling holiday for the first time or those looking to take on longer tours on more difficult routes. They are changing the way people go on cycling holidays and opening up new route possibilities and options.
We do recommend being a confident cyclist when renting an electric bike as the brakes are sharp and the bikes are heavier than normal.
Our electric bikes have a battery range of between 120 and 180 kilometres depending on the power option selected. It is important to note that these are not motorbikes or mopeds and you will need to pedal to receive the electric support. The motor will assist up to 25 km/h to help you get up to speed and then you are on the way!
We've created a video gallery to showcase some of our most popular cycle routes and show you some of the route highlights as you cycle from place to place during the holiday.
In these short videos, you'll gain an impression of what to expect on a cycling holiday, a snapshot of the terrain and some of the local attractions you can visit along the way.
On our Active on Holiday YouTube channel, you will find all our cycling and Bike and Boat holiday videos.
Alternatively, please view our video collection in our cycling holiday videos section.
