Custom & Private Tours

Some trips are better when they are shared with the people you already know. A private Pedalers tour gives your family, friends, cycling club, company group, or special-interest group the chance to travel together with the same thoughtful routes, local guides, boutique accommodations, and memorable meals that define our scheduled departures.

A private trip can be simple or highly customized. You might choose a private departure of an existing Pedalers tour, adjust a current itinerary to better fit your group, or work with us to create something more personal from the ground up.

Planning for a group? Start with a private trip request.

Private Departures

The easiest option is often a private departure of one of our scheduled tours. You choose the trip, gather your group, and travel on dates that work for you, subject to guide, hotel, and local availability.

This works well for families, groups of friends, cycling clubs, alumni groups, and travelers who like the shape of an existing itinerary but want the experience to themselves. The route, hotels, meals, and logistics are already well developed, which makes planning more straightforward while still giving your group a more personal experience.

Tailored Trips

Some groups want a familiar Pedalers trip with a few changes. You may want to add extra rest days, upgrade accommodations, adjust the activity level, include more cultural time, build in beach days, add a cooking class, or spend longer in a favorite destination.

When possible, we can adapt an existing itinerary to better match your group’s interests, schedule, and travel style. Not every change works with every route, season, or destination, but decades of experience help us know where flexibility is realistic and where the original plan is stronger for good reason.

Fully Custom Adventures

For groups with a bigger idea, we can also design a more customized journey. This might mean a cycling trip built around a specific region, a mix of biking and walking, a more relaxed itinerary for a family group, or a special celebration that combines active days with excellent food, distinctive lodging, and time to enjoy the destination.

A fully custom trip takes more planning, especially when dates, hotels, routes, and guide teams all need to come together. The earlier we start, the better the options usually are.

Who Private Tours Work Well For

Private tours are a good fit for groups who want more control over dates, pace, activities, or travel companions. They can work especially well for:

• Families and multi-generational groups
• Groups of friends
• Cycling clubs and active travel groups
• Corporate incentive trips
• Alumni and affinity groups
• Special celebrations
• Travelers who prefer not to join a scheduled departure

Group Organizer Perks

Gathering a group takes effort, and we appreciate the person who makes it happen. For groups of 12 or more, the group organizer receives a half-price spot on the trip as a thank-you for bringing everyone together.

How to Get Started

The best first step is to tell us what you have in mind. Helpful details include your preferred destination, approximate dates, group size, activity level, accommodation style, and whether you are interested in a private version of an existing Pedalers tour or something more customized.

From there, we can talk through what is realistic, what works well in the destination, and how to shape the trip into something that fits your group. The result should still feel like a Pedalers journey: active, local, comfortable, well supported, and full of the small details that make travel memorable.
