Brompton Tours

Embark on a fourteen-day journey through the raw and expansive landscapes of southern Patagonia, where every pedal stroke reveals a new vista, a deeper sense of scale, and a closer connection to one of the world’s most untamed regions. This is not merely a cycling tour—it is a retreat, a chance to move at your own pace while immersing yourself in wild nature, solitude, and understated comfort.

The adventure begins beside the Perito Moreno Glacier in El Calafate. Guests are welcomed with the awe-inspiring sight of ice breaking into turquoise waters and deep cracks echoing across the valley. After a brief orientation and bike fitting, the first ride begins along open roads where the pampas stretch endlessly, low grasses bending under constant wind, and the horizon blends seamlessly with the sky. Rolling terrain and alternating gravel and tarmac allow the Brompton to glide steadily across the landscape, small yet precise against the elements.

As the journey continues southward toward Torres del Paine, dramatic granite towers rise abruptly from the plains, reflected in shimmering lakes. Each stage is measured not by speed but by awareness: steady climbs, effortless descents, and quiet moments to absorb the vastness. Along the way, the route includes stretches of gravel that hum beneath the tyres, farm-to-table lunches in remote settings, and evenings spent either camping under wide Patagonian skies or staying in simple local accommodations where warmth and shared meals feel grounding.

This ten-day journey invites you to experience Tuscany with intention, attentiveness, and grace.

Riding Brompton bicycles, we move through landscapes shaped by centuries of cultivation, architecture, and human scale. Quiet country roads and historic strade bianche lead through vineyards, forests, and hill towns, connecting a network of villages across the Chianti countryside, with Radda in Chianti as our base during the first part of the journey.

Each stage is deliberately measured, favoring ease over speed. There is time for exploration, long lunches, unhurried pauses, and moments away from the bike. A dedicated support vehicle accompanies the journey throughout, ensuring comfort, flexibility, and seamless transitions.

Well-being is central to the experience. A professional massage therapist travels with the group, offering daily recovery sessions. Accommodations are carefully selected for elegance, privacy, and sense of place, from refined countryside retreats in Chianti to distinctive stays in Siena and Florence. Evenings unfold around Tuscan cuisine, local wines, and conversations shaped by the day’s discoveries.

This is not a tour of highlights, nor a test of endurance. It is a way of inhabiting the landscape—riding into villages, folding your Brompton in a piazza, and stepping naturally into places that reveal themselves only to those who arrive slowly.

Ten days. One region.
Tuscany, experienced from within.

Embark on a twelve-day journey through the untouched landscapes of northern Hokkaido, where every pedal stroke reveals a new vista, a new experience, and a deeper connection to Japan’s most remote corners. This is not merely a cycling tour—it is a retreat, a chance to move at your own pace while immersing yourself in nature, culture, and comfort.

The adventure begins in Wakkanai, Japan’s northernmost city. After a private transfer from the airport, guests are welcomed with the soothing warmth of an onsen, followed by a dinner highlighting the region’s freshest seafood. The following day allows time to assemble bicycles, test the coastal roads, and explore local markets and temples—quiet moments that set the tone for the journey ahead.

As the first ride begins, the northern coastline unfolds in all its dramatic beauty. Cape Soya, the northernmost point of Japan, offers sweeping views of the Arctic Ocean and a moment to reflect on the adventure just beginning. Rolling past serene fishing villages, lakeside campsites provide the perfect setting to rest under open skies, with evenings spent in the gentle company of nature.

The journey then turns inland, where open pastures, rolling hills, and quiet backroads lead to charming towns and hidden onsen retreats. Each stage balances cycling with moments of indulgence: a farm-to-table lunch in a sunlit pasture, a soak in a thermal spring to ease weary muscles, or a quiet evening in a traditional ryokan, surrounded by mountains or sea.

Longer stages along the coast challenge both endurance and spirit, rewarding riders with sweeping ocean views and the gentle rhythm of rural life. Mountain stages introduce dramatic elevation and lush forests, revealing Hokkaido’s rugged heartland and testing the body while restoring the mind. Along the way, waterfalls, rivers, and peaceful villages create a series of scenic interludes, offering time for reflection and awe.
