Self-Guided Cycling Tours

With the sun on your back, the breeze at your side and the incredulous wonders of the world surrounding you, self-guided tours allow you to live your own adventure the way you want to live it! We believe there is no better way to travel then on two wheels, where every kilometre obtained is a result of your physical inclination to want to do it.
Choose from a range of itineraries centered on the Gold coast, Byron bay, the border ranges and the Tweed Valley Hinterland. This is our area; we know it inside out and back to front. Our routes are hand-chosen and hand-ridden. The accommodations have been experienced first hand and are carefully selected to not only provide you with a comfortable bed, but also to enrich your experience of the area, which you are visiting.
We will provide you with a detailed outline of your route including maps, route descriptions, detailed itinerary and all of your cycle touring equipment. All you need to do is pack your lycras and jump on a plane. We will be there waiting for you at the airport with all of the resources you will need to experience your own unique journey of a lifetime.

Testimonial – "After a lot of research we chose Cycling Tours above the competition as they provide a truly tailor-made service. What really sets them apart is that Sally and Braden are cyclists themselves and their enthusiasm is infectious. They really listened to our requests and were able to organize exactly what we were looking for. The whole trip was planned down to the last detail.
We were provided with all the equipment we needed including maps as well as customized route plans and daily itinerary laminates – which were invaluable. All the accommodation had been handpicked and provided a welcome surprise each day after our ride. We had great fun over the two weeks we spent cycling around The Byron Bay Hinterland and Border Ranges. We spent 3 months travelling through Australia and this cycle tour was definitely the highlight of our trip.".
