“Over the past 25 years, me and a group of six (quite choosy) girlfriends have made as many slackpacking cycling trips in Europe, Asia, South America and Africa. In the process, we have dealt with many companies who operate in this field – what they promise, what they deliver… and what you discover can not be delivered, arranged, solved, once you are in a far-flung, unfamiliar place with a unique challenge or breakdown. I can state with absolute confidence : the Bespoke tours I have been on (Italy and Japan), are the best designed, best thought-through, most creatively put together trips of all our varied experiences in a very competitive market. Once the basics are in place, think : originality, creativity, most unusual experiences, great company and best support. It offers a wonderful balance between cycling and other means of exploring and experiencing destinations…and creatively enjoying all the good things along the way.” Groete Louise, October 2026

“Recently I purchased an e/ bike and completed my first cycling adventure in NE Victoria with Bespoke Tours. What a great choice it turned out to be . Colin and his team had done so much ground work which ensured that our group , who were not necessarily know to each other, had the most exciting , interesting and wonderful time. There was nothing left to chance in terms of the the route, accommodation, dining, experiences and safety . If I was asked to rate this adventure, I would give Colin and his team 5 out of 5. . More importantly, my wife and I will be lining up for another trip later in the year.”

“What a fabulous week around Orange! Of course the food and wine were great but we also met some really interesting local people with tales about the region. Colin organised everything perfectly. This tour is more than just biking!”

“The itinerary was perfect and the trouble you went to in arranging all those extras (culinary, cultural and vinicultural) was very much appreciated. Our Guides gentle guiding hand was there to see, for those who looked to see, and I became increasingly aware of how much time was put into ensuring we all enjoyed ourselves.”
