Romantic Road

May 29 - June 9, 2010

The Romantic Road is a 450 km section of one of Germany's most picturesque highways, stretching from Würzburg in Bavaria's north to Füssen near the Austrian border.

A trade route during the middle ages, the Romantic Road still retains much of its medieval character. The road often winds through forgotten sections of countryside, connecting walled towns and picturesque villages. Travelers may enter a town through an arched gateway complete with guard towers. Inside, you will find gothic cathedrals, half-timbered fachwerk houses, beautiful historic hotels and often a medieval festival.

Along the route are many favourite tourist towns and attractions, including Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Dinkelsbühl, Augsburg, and Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau Castles.

The Romantic Road long-distance cycle route is part of the ADFC cycle-route network and takes cyclists down idyllic secondary roads running through unspoilt countryside, along quiet country roads and gravel forest paths, past pastures, meadows and ponds, to romantic places and fascinating towns that make the Romantic Road so unique.

Quebec

August 22 - 27, 2010

The reputation of the province of Quebec as a tourist destination with a difference is well known.

 

Between quiet villages and the bustling cities, you can discover the true meaning of Quebec’s legendary wide open spaces you have heard so much about and that have made the reputation of Quebec as an exceptional travel destination.

Its numerous national parks hide well-kept treasures that turn out to be magnificent for those who dare reveal them.

The region you will discover on this tour is Quebec City and surrounding area, which has some of the prettiest and most interesting natural and built attractions in Canada.

 

Quebec City is the cradle of French Civilization in North America, and celebrates its 400th anniversary in 2008. In addition to being historically significant (it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site), Quebec City also boasts some of the better restaurants in Canada.

 

Our tour starts in Quebec City and goes from there around Ile d'Orleans where we stay one night. The next day we bike towards Mont Ste Anne visiting Montmorency Falls before heading to the pilgrimage site of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre where we will spend two nights and bike in the area. The last day we bike back to Quebec City.

Price: $1,095 double occupancy
