Comments: Can't say enough great things about SunVelo! Alison, Alastair, Sam, Taff, Dave, Aksel, Roger, Lance, Val, Steve, Peter, everyone there were hilarious, fun and always delivered me safely to cake. For 17 days I was in SunVelo heaven and it wasn't long enough. I'm now a roadie convert and it's all your fault. You're the best and I can't wait to come back! Sincerely, the forever guest Crystal.

Comments: Excellent week of riding with SunVelo. Their guides are experienced and know the area very well. We rode on roads with minimal traffic that were far from the beaten path that the really big groups ride.
They have groups for all goals and abilities, you don't need to worry about the ride being to easy or to difficult.
I'm looking forward to riding with them again.

Comments: We had an fantastic holiday cycling with Sunvelo! The real beauty of the company is that it gives you the opportunity to ride at different levels, moving between groups or even having a #sunvelorebel moment and splitting away depending on how you are feeling and what you want to achieve. Riding with the brilliant Alistair made our holiday, he was everything a guide should be friendly, helpful, incredibly knowledgeable and a brillliant cyclist. He encouraged and supported us and also shared his tips and techniques which have already helped my cycling, Lots of friendly people and a great relaxed feel whilst still riding in tight efficient groups. We saw some amazing places, off the beaten track and enjoyed the social side of Sunvelo too. We will be back!!
