Spain Self-Guided tour

Do it yourself. I've been on more than 40 bike tours and have always done it myself. It's much
cheaper, I imagine. I've been to Spain many times. It is one of my three favourite places for
touring, the other 2 being Ireland and Scotland.

Some tips.

Don't go the Southern Spain or central Spain in mid-summer as you'll fry.

We've had a couple of good trips with EUROCYCLE. They are much cheaper than going through an
American company. The English version of their website is at
http://www.eurocycle.at/englisch/englindex.html. We've used their rental bikes which were fine for
trips along the rivers.

But next time we go to Europe we will go self-supported with our own bikes. Cheaper yet and the
small pensions are really charming and a neat way to meet ordinary people.

i just looked at the link you posted and it looks like there are some great deals.i was just
wondering how many people here have taken one of these tours,and how they would rate the experience.

Hello Gregory: My wife and I went on a 7 day northern Spain trip summer before last. Great time.
Journal and pictures are at my web site www.thebest.net/drbob/ The name of the company is
Iberocycle. If you read my journal I believe that you will find the trip meats your specs very well.
Good luck.
