Spending 5 solid days of cycling with my 3 best friends. The days were FULL and every minute was wonderful. I enjoyed the breakfasts each morning and LOVED when we had dinner at the hotels with a pre-fixed menu so I didn’t have many decisions to make. I loved riding my bike on the bike paths and roads throughout the country side. I loved that we felt like we were the only ones out there. We had EVERY type of weather and even when it was raining I was still in my happy place! The 4 of us left Spain with our cups over flowing. We all made the comment it was the BEST TRIP we’ve ever taken! I hope more people can experience what we did! Thank you Aviva for helping us have a trip of a life time that none of us will forget!

10 out of 10, trip of a lifetime! I felt I got my money's worth with really top-quality materials and plans and route info. We LOVED the days that we got to ride well-paved, forested, quiet coastal highways with hardly any cars. I think the second day was my favorite, where I almost forgot I wasn't on a bike path because it felt like we owned the road. A lot of the 4th day was the same. The views were breathtaking and the quality of the roads was impressive. I can't believe how clean everything was! No litter at all! And the people in all the small towns (and our bigger city hotels) were so friendly and helpful. We were also well prepared for a variety of weather conditions. Very impressive routes, planning, roads, views, and team.

It was the first time we traveled alone and we were happy to see that we had a real authentic experience and we now feel we could do this again! The scenery and the conversations we had with people were inspiring and it was culturally fascinating. Truly a wonderful time and it pushed us out of our comfort zone. We felt successful because the trip and accommodations were well thought and mapped out for us. This trip was a 10 for us-- Including breakfast was key so that we did not worry about finding a restaurant for this. We could organize our things, eat and get a leisure start to our ride for the day. We can’t wait to explore and do another self-guided trip! Thank you for really making this experience happen!! I would suggest to be patient and smile: It truly helps when you cannot speak Spanish or Basque.
