2018 bike tours: Explore the world, two wheels at a time

Trek Travel, an active vacation tour operator specializing in bicycling vacations, unveiled a globetrotting roster of 2018 bike tours that invite adventurers to explore even more of the world, two wheels at a time.

From a multisport adventure in Alaska, to a bike & golf getaway in Scotland, to a desert oasis in Palm Springs and Joshua Tree National Park, Trek Travel blends access to undiscovered terrain with singular cultural experiences and their characteristic VIP service. All atop the world’s best bikes.

“We’ve canvassed the world to seek out experiences that are authentic and distinctive,” says Trek Travel President, Tania Burke, “with the hopes that the memories will remain with our guests long after they’ve returned home.”

“Plus, we’ve newly redesigned several of our regions to give our guests the best experience possible, whether that’s all-inclusive luxury in Tuscany or fantastic route selections on our Tucson Ride Camp.”

Trek Travel’s 2018 brand new trips include:

Alaska MultiSport

A half-day guided kayak tour on Seward’s Resurrection Bay, a river ride down the wild Susitna and Talkeetna Rivers, and pedaling the Chase Trail past grizzly tracks and caribou on hybrid bikes make this a rustic & wild adventure.

Palm Springs & Joshua Tree

This great winter getaway includes hiking in Joshua Tree National Park, exploring the Coachella Valley by bike, and resting in the Moroccan and Mediterranean-inspired villas at Korakia Pensione.
