Undiscovered Country tours — Road Bike Vacations in California
The Undiscovered Country Difference
What makes an Undisovered Country trip stand out? Here are a few reasons why:
Great Cycling is Our First Priority
Some commercial tours are long on cultural activities and short on cycling. Here at Undiscovered Country, just the opposite is true. Our tour planning starts and ends with the bicycling. Of course, we like to dine well, stay in nice accommodations, and experience the local flavor. But our first prioroty is to create the best cycling experiece we can.
The Road Less Traveled
Many bike touring companies seem content to follow the well worn path. But that’s not our style. We prefer the backroads to the main highway, the quaint village to the crowded tourist town, the small historic inn to the internationally known resort. We’ll probably skip the sites described in the guide book, we seek out unique spots that are, well, undiscovered.
No Crowds
On some organized tours, it can feel like you’re lost in a crowd. We don’t like crowds, so we keep our group sizes small—never more than 12 people. This lets us fit comfortabley in the smaller inns, lodges, wineries, and restaurants that are off the beaten path. Plus, a smaller group makes it easier to get to know our fellow travelers.
Flexible Activity Options
We know that everyone has different expectations and levels of fitness. That's why we provide plenty of activity options. Want more of a physical challenge? We offer long route options on most days. Want to take a leisurely day and take time to enjoy the sights? Relax on a shorter or less hilly route. Or maybe you’ve had enough riding for one day. We’re happy to pick you and your bike up in the support vehicle. It's all up to you.
Weekend Getaways
Many of our guests take week-long bike tours, once or even twice a year. But what about the weeks or months in between these extended vacations? Wouldn’t it be nice to get away on a short trip and recharge the batteries? That’s where our weekend getaways come in. They’re a great way for busy people to enjoy a weekend away from home without all the planning and guesswork. We've done all the research and handled all the details. Our guests just show up and enjoy. You won’t find another bike tour company with as many weekend offerings.
