About

As cycling and walking holiday experts, Bents lead the way…

We’re proud to be celebrating more than 25 years organising high quality cycling and
walking holidays. Here at Bents, we take care of everything for you – from flights and hotels, to the choice of route. Best of all, we ensure that you have the freedom to explore each destination at your own pace.

Bents Bicycle and Walking Tours is a member of AITO, the Association of Independent
Tour Operators. All AITO members are fully bonded, so you can book your holiday
with confidence and peace of mind. We also guarantee that the price of your holiday, as shown on our booking confirmation, is the price you’ll pay - there’ll be no surcharges or nasty surprises.

Each of our chosen destinations has been carefully selected to offer a wide range of
activities, from mountain walking and water  sports to visiting historical monuments and  castles. Most importantly, excellent cycling and walking excursions are available in each area, all carefully researched by us to suit everybody.

This year we have an exciting new addition to our programme, a cycling tour through
magical Slovenia. It is a brand new destination for us, and we are looking forward
to showing you the unspoilt landscapes of this beautiful country.

We also have two fantastic tours returning this summer: the delightful and challenging
Heart of the Black Forest and, the picturesque Enns Valley and the Austrian
Lakes
.

All except one of our tours are available in two formats. The first is the ‘Original Bents
Formula
’ of two night stays at each hotel, moving on alternate days. This format is
available on all dates. You can also choose our ‘One Night Stops’ itinerary, which includes two nights in your first hotel, followed by just a single night in each subsequent hotel. This formula is offered on selected dates. Our Moselle Tour has a specially chosen itinerary which is tailored to the landscape.

In response to many requests, we have added electric bicycles to our fleet. These
are available at a small supplement and, should you choose one, will help you ride
up hills with ease and keep going longer and further with minimal effort.

All of our holiday prices include flights from the UK and airport transfers. We
offer scheduled flights from an array of regional UK airports to all of our destinations.
We are also happy to arrange your flights using low cost carriers from any airport in the UK. Simply give us a call and we will research the best options for you.

Ready to go? We look forward to hearing from you soon.
