Overview

If you’re looking for a cycling trip to England and Scotland that takes you far from the maddening crowd, this is the one! With VBT’s insider access to remote corners of the British Isles, we’ll lead you over hill and dale through some of the last wilderness in England—including rides through the rugged, scenic Lake District, the remote and pristine expanse of Kielder Forest, and the sweeping vistas of the Honister Pass. Discover the ancient history of the British Isles during a stop at Hadrian’s Wall and the ancient Roman settlement of Vindolanda, as well as a memorable ride to the ancient Neolithic monument at Castlerigg Stone Circle. Pedal the charming, verdant valleys of Scotland, and enjoy the epitome of Scottish opulence during a two-night stay at a Tweed Valley hotel featuring a luxury spa, Victorian baths, sauna, steam room, and on-site distillery. Along the way, our local British trip leaders unlock the region’s best kept secrets: hidden shops, delightful restaurants, and the best place to find an authentic pint of English lager.
