Mountain-Bike Holidays

Mountain Biking Holidays with Neilson. From gentle cruises through rural villages to technical off-road challenges, cycling holidays are a perfect example of the Neilson approach - be as energetic or as chilled out as you choose.

Join in with a scenic ride to a nearby bay for an early morning swim and a Turkish coffee. Or saddle up with our expert mountain bike guides for an all day mission to conquer Greek mountains.
With great bikes and enthusiastic bike guides, you can decide if mountain biking will be a demanding new challenge or simply the best way to explore the beautiful coastlines of Greece, Turkey, Croatia and Egypt.

Neilson cycling holidays in Europe and Sinai offer the best way to explore stunning landscapes.
Guided Mountain Bike Riding
There's nothing like riding with the locals to help you see the best trails a new destination has to offer on cycling holidays in Europe. Our expert guides know their locations intimately, and are looking forward to showing you around. You can choose from up to three rides a day, depending on the location, duration, terrain and level of difficulty that suits you. At two of our centres; Vassiliki and Porto Heli we offer an expanded range of rides with greater distances and more challenging riding - great for enthusiastic mountain bikers.

Independent Mountain Bike Riding
Alternatively, enjoy the freedom to explore independently on our mountain biking holidays, with our easy-to-follow route cards. We'll supply all you need - helmets, gloves, spares and water bottles. All we ask is that you don't ride alone and that you're back by the time requested by our staff.
