Why plan a self-guided cycling trip or a self-guided hike ?

Traveling by bike in freedom or hiking by bike in freedom through a specialized travel agency, it is to evolve as close as possible to the surrounding landscapes and the local culture.

The choice of small peaceful roads, country paths, bike roads or other trails, coupled with the apparent slowness of progress immerses each of us in an incomparable proximity to nature. This suddenly makes contact and meetings obvious and allows you to cross and discover authentic places, territories and settings that we would have ignored in normal times.

The following testimony from one of our clients was overwhelming.

“… It was very obvious to us that you had planned the bike trip like a real cyclist would, because the route was very scenic and peaceful. Your choice of accommodation couldn’t have been better – you obviously have a great rapport (they all talked a lot about you) with these hotels and guesthouses as we were treated very well wherever you made arrangements . We met other riders along the way who had brought in other travel agencies, and our impression was that Evazio clearly had a more personal experience of the whole tour we did… ”
Joel Smith and Kathy Keehan

Why choose a bike trip at Evazio ?

Because we personally study, locate and test our cycling and hiking tours.

The criteria are the difficulty of the route, the length of the stages, the historical, cultural and natural points of interest, all by taking pleasant small roads with little traffic or cycle paths, paths or footpath.

Finally, the route by bike or on foot must of course include accommodation with all the necessary service and comfort, in addition charming and well located!

The expansion of cycling in recent years has seen the development of many “bike routes”, greenways and rolling and secure cycle lanes. Some sections are interesting, but others less! Also, we advise you on these bike tours by bringing you, if necessary, alternatives targeted more on the cultural aspect, the natural resources.

“… the five days we spent on the cycling holidays were absolutely the highlight of the trip. What made it particularly appreciable was the effort you put in to make the whole course run on such calm roads. It was a pleasure and far exceeded our expectations in this regard… ”
Alyson and Mark Hay
