What to Expect
We put customer expectations at the centre of the way we work, building them into our products and service, and giving customers confidence in Art of Bicycle Trips.
Thoughtfully Crafted
Each day is crafted with utmost care so that you are well-rested; get a drift of local culture and cuisine and enjoy the splendid trails at your own pace. Extensive research, backed by first-hand experience of all elements by us, makes an itinerary from ordinary to extraordinary. And yes like you all, we prefer to ride inn-to-inn with a minimal shuttle.
Handpicked Hotels
You can choose your accommodation as Premiere or Casual Inns for our trips.
Premiere Inns
Premiere accommodations include some of the most prestigious hotels. Heritage properties, art décor contemporary places or chic boutique stays that are a notch above the rest are a part of this list.
Casual Inns
True to their heritage and character, small luxury and boutique hotels that reflect local ethos are listed as Casual Inns. Most of them fall under the 3-star category with a possible mix of homestay and 4-star.
Expert Local Guides
Our most visible and perhaps most important role is played by a Trip Leader, the folks who make a trip memorable, comfortable, knowledgeable, and who are able to steer you towards a unique and enriching experience!
Sharing information on local cultural landscape, flora, and fauna, and providing genuine care and support during the trip is key to that and our tour leaders are expected to deliver on the same. On most of the trips, we have two leaders riding with you. One is leading the group of riders and the other is closing at the back.
Local Experiences
Our tour designers give as much focus on non-cycling activities as on cycling. Our travel philosophy is to get immersed in the life of a region and take back a unique and enriching experience. Creating the right balance of activities and excursions is key to that, and we strive towards the same.
Outstanding Food
We truly acknowledge the importance of food in sharing an authentic experience of a new destination and understanding of local culture and people. Local food is an integral part of our trips; you will get plenty of this.
Quality Bikes
When you have a road and the thrill of a journey ahead of you, it’s imperative to have a good bike to enjoy it. Our fleet consists of Scott, Trek, Giant, Fuji, Marin: these are some of the best in the cycling tour industry and perfect to maneuver through any terrain that you may encounter in Asia. Now we have new-age Giant and Scott e-bikes also available in some countries. More ways to rejoice and ride together!
