From the planning experience, to the logistics of working with Pure Adventures to the actual riding, this was one of the best bicycling experiences of my many years of peddling. We rode many of the same rodes as the great cyclists of our time. The lodging was amazing and the transportation of our equipment was exceptional. There is absolutely nothing that they could have done better. The riding around Girona and from Vic to Girona was quite possibly the best riding of my life. The roads were not busy, were very narrow, and, if you did see a car, they were the utmost of bicycle friendly. Thank you so much for bringing me some of the best riding of my very long riding career! Sign up today…you will not regret any of the experience. You all could not have done anything better!
We highly recommend the Barcelona to Girona Road Bike Tour! It was perfect for us, great scenery on backroads, lovely hotels and interesting medieval towns. This was our second tour with Pure Adventures and will do more in the future!
Brian and I booked this pretty much at the last minute and Pure Adventures made it all happen. This was honestly the highlight of our entire trip to Europe. We would book again with Pure Adventures and we would go back to Spain in a heartbeat.
Our Girona trip went really well and your Barcelona partners do a really great job. You clearly have vetted every aspect of the tour. We were very pleased with the bikes, the routes were very beautiful and the hotels good. Definitely a memorable experience! Thanks, Mar, for all your help, from start to finish! Besos from Chile!
Fun trip for a couple of crazy couples that like to eat, drink, and ride bikes! Thank you to Loren and Pure Adventures for the excellent arrangements, we will be back!
