I'm just back from 'Sardinia - Island Flavours' guided holiday. Like all previous Skedaddle trips it was wonderful! There was a good mix of terrain (mountains to islands), lots of roller coaster cycling and delicious picnics prepared by the guides. The dinners in agritourism farms/restaurants were exceptional - a very special aspect of this trip.

Great guides. Informative and helpful.
Hotel good. Cotswolds is a lovely area and the company on the trip was great. People from all walks of life with the passion for fresh air,exercise, exploration and good company.

Excellent knowledge of the cycle route and excellent and responsive back-up.
They have obviously done this before and know what they are doing!

The advice and support provided by Saddle Skedaddle for the ride. We were self-guided and could easily have got into difficulties but they have a 24 hr helpline. The accommodation they organised for us was extremely comfortable. The route was clear and directions easy to follow.

Excellent organisation, routes & support crew.

Our ride along the Portugal coast was fantastic. It was a great mix of roads and trails with many scenic stops. Our ride was assisted by a great team that took care of us during our 6-day ride. Since this was my first cycling holiday, I really appreciated the planning and execution for the whole trip including meal suggestions as well as appointed hotels.

Fantastic support, lovely tour guides and just about the best coffee breaks ever! and far better than the breakfasts at our accomodation. Highly recommended and i am already booking another trip with Skedaddle.

Excellent and well-researched cycling route with perfect stops and good hotels. Luggage transported for you so you can concentrate on cycling and exploring. Helpful guides and thorough briefing on daily route and what to expect. Excellent value for money and a superlative experience.

We have done two trips with Saddle Skedaddle. The C2C and Oban to Inverness. Both trips were excellent. The route was well chosen and navigation was very easy. All the staff were very helpful and courteous. The accommodation was generally good, my only wish is the option to upgrade places to stay.

I couldn't rate Saddle Skedaddle highly enough. I've done a few cycling holidays where I've booked our own accommodation and one of the best things about using this company was the sheer variety of places we stayed at- from quite plush spa hotels to family run agritourismo's. All staff we engaged with could not have been more helpful. For instance on one day we had freak rain, so they picked us, bags & bikes up, took us to Pula, the last stop on the trip & let us have the bikes for a further day so we didn't miss out. The fact that we were self guided also worked well. The Ride with GPS files were brilliant, giving an audio alert when for instance a turn was coming up. Great holiday.

Outstanding customer service and excellent organisation and support. We would not hesitate to use them again!

Great pre trip service and a fantastic ride in beautiful Corsica … brilliant tour leader made everything work very smoothly indeed

We had a fantastic trip with Saddle Skedaddle. It was our first self-guided trip, and all the details were taken care of perfectly. I would highly recommend the Coast 2 Coast self-guided cycling holiday!

Well organised, decent accomodation, excellent itinerary. Guides helpful. Food good. Kirkpatrick C2C is a must do for average cyclists wanting an interesting route that is a very doable but rewarding challenge.

We had a wonderful experience on our Saddle Skedaddle holiday along Hadrian's Wall. It was so well organised from start to finish and we felt the whole team couldn't have done more to make it a great experience for us. We did the self-guided tour and found the GPS route easy to follow. Shortly before the trip, a member of our party developed a medical problem that affected their cycling, but the reassurance given before the holiday that additional support would be provided if there were problems on the ride gave us the confidence to embark on the journey, knowing everything would be OK. Lots of helpful information was shared on the transfer to the start point and we found the accommodation stops of a very high standard with friendly hosts who couldn't have been more helpful. It was the first time we'd booked an organised trip and we're very glad we did. It was a great experience overall and we all really enjoyed it. Thank you, Saddle Skedaddle!

What a fabulous week of riding. Great variety of terrain, amazing route. Guides were excellent. Would highly recommend. Will be doing it again sometime with Skeddadle. It's so nice to have a group of like minded people and have all ones needs sorted so all you have to do is stay upright on the bike, pedal and smile.

Wonderful short trip from Bowness to Tynemouth with Saddle Skedaddle. Great service, all very smooth. Picked up on time, info all clear, friendly support. Bikes in great condition, accommodation really well chosen. Will definitely go on a trip with them again.

Faultless service by Skedaddle on our C2C trip. This is the first time we've used a company to organise a cycling trip and move luggage, and we’ll definitely do it again. It gave me the confidence to try what I knew would be a challenging ride (the Pennines!) and I achieved it. Such peace of mind, knowing our bags were waiting for us at a nice B&B at the end of the day. No hassle whatsoever. Staff were friendly and efficient, plenty of information given up front. We used road bikes and the team were careful to make sure we understood that some sections might not be suitable – even providing a ‘road alternative’ for one section. No complaints.

I booked a UK trip with the company. I would suggest that you do your homework. We had a lovely group. The accommodation was good and most of the food was fine. Don't book extra nights accommodation through SS. You will pay up to 100% more in costs.

It's not clear who is causing logistical issues possibly the office and guides aren't communicating. They told us on the last night that they couldn't transfer us, despite being part of the trip bookings
I willnot use them again. Make your own mind up.

I had an incredible experience on the Coast to Coast self-guided cycle ride with Saddle Skedaddle! The organization and support throughout the trip were absolutely fantastic. Everything was meticulously planned, from the detailed route notes and GPX files to the flawless luggage transfers each day. The weather was unpredictable, having the freedom of being able to take plenty of changes of clothes and knowing the luggage would be transferred between stops, which allowed me to fully appreciate the stunning scenery and enjoy the ride.
The accommodation choices were brilliant—comfortable, welcoming, and perfectly situated for our journey. The bike I rented was good quality, well-maintained, and perfectly suited for the varied terrain. I felt completely supported, even on a self-guided tour. The team was always just a phone call away if I had any questions, and they were a pleasure to deal with.
This trip was a perfect blend of adventure and peace of mind. Saddle Skedaddle truly takes all the stress out of planning, allowing you to focus on the joy of cycling through some of the UK's most beautiful landscapes. We can't recommend them highly enough and are already looking forward to my next trip with them!
