Each self-guided holiday comes with comprehensive route notes and a map or pocket guidebook of the area you are exploring. The route notes contain information about the places you will visit, about the local transport you might need, along with the detailed route notes for your daily walks or cycle rides. We even include some tips for the best places to stop for lunch.

You can expect to receive your Self-Guided Pack containing your route notes, a map or guidebook and all your relevant documents no later than 3 weeks before your holiday start date. We will send your documents using signed for courier so that you can track your package and know that they are safely on their way to you. For bookings of more than 4 people we will send an additional Self-Guided Pack. If you do not need this additional pack please inform our sales team. Your pack will be sent to the lead booker so please remind them to pack it before you set off.

Should your self-guided trip be part of a longer adventure requiring you to leave home more than three weeks before your holiday start date, please do inform our sales team so that we can make alternative delivery arrangements.

Our Self-Guided Holidays are perfect for your next family holiday and are suitable for children of all ages.

Our partner hotels and accommodations are able to provide cots for young children, and some offer family rooms. We can also arrange hire of children’s bikes and tag along bikes for our self-guided cycling trips and with trips such as Lake Constance and the Danube offering routes on designated cycle paths you can rest assured in keeping your family safe.

As a parent we trust that you know your own child’s capabilities, please read the itinerary details to ensure the distances covered each day are suitable for your family. If this is a first time walking holiday for your family, a centre based trip is a fantastic option as it allows you to easily opt out of a days walking if a day of building sand castles, swimming in the pool or visiting museums is calling.

Please discuss this further with our sales team who will be happy to assist in picking the best trip for your family.

This trip starts and ends at your hotel in Costa Teguise. All of our self-guided holidays are sold on a Land Only basis allowing you the flexibility to choose the travel method which best suits you. The nearest airport for this trip is Arrecife with many departures from regional UK airports.

If you are arriving into Arrecife Airport (Lanzarote Airport) you can take the public bus to Costa Teguise. The buses run every 50 minutes and the journey requires one change at Intercambiador Playa Del Reductro taking approximately 1 hour. Alternatively, you may wish to take a taxi transfer from the airport. This option takes approximately 15 minutes.

It is also possible to arrive into Arrecife via ferry from Cadiz, mainland Spain. From here you can take the public bus to Costa Teguise.

This trip is on a bed and breakfast basis to allow you the most flexibility during your holiday.

Water is drinkable from the taps on this holiday. Please fill your personal bottles for your day in the morning. We do not encourage the purchasing of single use plastic bottles.

Cuisine in the Canaries is filled with tradition and fresh local produce, with recipes being handed down through generations. It is these traditions which have formed the delicious mix of cuisine which blends its Spanish roots with African and South American influences. A staple on any menu is the tasty Papas Arrugadas; small locally grown potatoes which are boiled in extremely salty water giving the skins a somewhat wrinkly appearance served with the traditional Mojo sauce (and every restaurant claims to have its own secret recipe). As you would expect from an island, seafood features heavily in the Canarian diet, from Puntillas de Calamar (fried baby squid) to Pescado a la Plancha (fish of the day simply grilled and incredibly tasty). More surprisingly however, is the island's fantastic goat’s cheeses, some of which have won international awards, and the island's selection of great wines to accompany your meal.

Whilst we can cater for vegetarians, albeit sometimes with a more limited choice, we cannot always provide special diets.  Due to the nature of some of the trips that we operate and the countries in which we operate them, it can be very hard (and sometimes impossible) to cater for a wide range of dietary choices and you may have to supplement your diet with food/snacks from home.  If you have specific dietary requirements please do speak to our sales team and they will be able to advise you whether or not we will be able to offer your specific choice.  Please note that we are unable to provide separate menus and cannot accept liability for any problems arising from special dietary requirements or intolerances.

We have designed this trip with comfort in mind, after all, we all want some comfort and relaxation after a day in the saddle. You will be staying in a great selection of 4* hotels and resorts, plus a welcoming traditional Canarian casa in Haria where you can enjoy the warm hospitality of Lola and Juan. All accommodations offer comfortable ensuite bedrooms, great communal areas and offer a great breakfast buffet to fuel your rides each day. Some of your accommodations will also include swimming pools, perfect for cooling off after a busy day exploring.

It is possible to arrange additional nights accommodation in Costa Teguise before or after your trip if you would prefer to explore this fabulous island a little more. Please refer to the dates and prices tab for further details or speak to one of our sales team.

Bikes on this trip are touring bikes with 30 speeds and all come equipped with a pannier and rear luggage rack for your daily essentials. We include a helmet with your bike on this trip but we strongly recommend you bring your own helmet for the best comfort.

We also recommend packing a gel seat for extra comfort, or a pair of padded cycling shorts, whilst there are plenty of opportunities to stop and explore it is always nice to have some padding for a comfortable ride.

For those wishing for a sportier positioning on the bike it is possible to upgrade to a road bike on this trip for an additional supplement of £40. E-bikes are also available at an additional supplement of £175. Please ask our sales team for details.

Your main luggage will be transferred between each of your hotels while you are out on your ride. We ask that you please ensure your luggage is under 20kg and that your luggage is ready for collection in the morning. You will also need a daypack to carry your daily essentials with you.
