Scotland - Highlands & Islands

The trip focuses on the western islands of Mull and Skye – incredibly beautiful places to ride a bike! Listed by Lonely Planet in the Top 10 travel destinations in the world!

Our Company Founder, Peter Thomson, was brought up in Scotland and before taking up road-racing, he’d spend many a holiday cycle-touring around the mountains of Scotland. 40 years later he returns to Scotland to share with you the best of these holiday routes.

Scotland’s west coast is a wild and remote place, filled with some of the most beautiful scenery you’ll find anywhere in the world – and includes many of Peter’s favorite rides! We focus on the Inner Hebridean islands of Mull and Skye along with the most spectacular rides on the Scottish mainland. You’ll ride across the Ardnamurchan Peninsula, recognized as one of the most beautiful regions of Scotland, and the trip concludes with the UK’s most challenging climb, the Bealach na Ba Pass (from both sides). This region is also home to magnificent ocean wildlife and we’ll include a boat trip to witness some of this wildlife including basking sharks, minke whales, killer whales, seals, dolphins etc.

To enjoy Scotland at its best you’ll stay in luxury accommodations including the 5-star Isle of Eriska Hotel – located on it’s own private island, and the top hotels on the Isle of Skye.
