What to expect
You'll start on a stable, easy-to-handle bike designed for leisurely riding. The guide leads you along pre-scouted routes that prioritise safety and scenery over speed—think winding medieval streets, leafy park trails and the occasional seafront stretch. Expect a conversational pace with stops to absorb views and hear historical detail. Weather varies by season: summer heat, spring and autumn chill, occasional rain (ponchos provided). The ride suits all fitness levels; it's about enjoying the route at your own tempo rather than pushing hard.
