Cycling holidays in the United Kingdom take you along quiet country lanes, riverside paths and historic routes, with the day's riding linked by accommodation that is already booked for you. The programmes on this page run from 7 to 9 days and cover a wide spread of the country. You can follow the Thames from Oxford to London, passing Windsor, the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and Buckingham Palace, or ride through the Cotswolds, Wessex, Wales and the Scottish Borders. Other itineraries take in Hadrian's Wall, the C2C route and the Lake District, as well as coast, castles and country lanes across the UK.
Most of the trips here are self-guided. You get a set route over a set number of days and ride it at your own pace, with no guide alongside you and no group to keep up with. Route notes and maps come with the trip, and an app shows the day's route on your phone along with points of interest. On some programmes your luggage is transferred ahead to the next hotel, so you only carry what you need for the day.
These holidays suit riders who like independence and a relaxed rhythm. If you are newer to touring, the Thames itinerary is described as the gentlest introduction and is listed as recreational grade.

The Thames itinerary from Oxford to Windsor is described as the gentlest introduction and is listed as a recreational-grade trip. Because most programmes are self-guided, you also ride at your own pace rather than keeping up with a group.
You follow a set route over a set number of days, with your accommodation booked for you. There is no guide riding with you and no fixed group, so you set off when you like and stop where you like.
Most programmes on this page include pre-booked accommodation along a fixed itinerary, plus route notes and maps. An app shows the day's route on your phone with points of interest, and on some trips your luggage is transferred ahead to the next hotel.
A typical day starts whenever you want it to. You have breakfast at your accommodation, follow the route notes or the app's GPS line out of town, and stop wherever takes your fancy along the way.
The Oxford to London route follows the river for much of the way and passes Windsor, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, and Buckingham Palace. The Oxford to Windsor itinerary threads through rural villages and historic towns and past royal palaces.
