BIKING ABROAD Reviews 28

Cliff and Zoe were fantastic hosts they couldn't do enough for you. Accommodation perfect could not fault anything.Food was exceptional.
The coffee stops were spot on and great to have a chat whilst we were out riding. The roads Cliff took us on were out of this world love every minute, best I have ever ridden.
Such a BIG thank you for everything you two are doing, a brilliant job well set up and runs so well 😁👍

WOW thank you Cliff and Zoe what an amazing trip! …..

If you want and honest and comprehensive review please read on….
After thoroughly reading the website and reviews I decided to book a weeks trip away for 2 of us. Before booking I had a few very minor queries which were answered same day via email, I then booked the dates, a simple phone call to take a deposit payment and all was set.
A week prior to my holiday, Zoe contacted me to confirm pick up time and location, on arrival in Alicante I had a text message from Zoe to again confirm the pick up time and location and also a lovely message saying to contact her if I needed any info or help.
Sure enough Zoe picked us up bang on time and we had a nice air-conditioned ride to the accommodation.

On arrival I was amazed at the standard, the individual rooms are massive, double bed, shower ensuite (great shower pressure) air conditioned, roller “black out” shutters and towels. The dining/bar area is decorated with interesting F1 memorabilia and a big dining table. A games room with pool table and darts, a cinema room with massive TV and all streaming services. The outside seating area is lovely with tables, chairs and parasols, with lovely views over the mountains and to top it off a swimming pool!!!

The food was brilliant, all home cooked breakfast and dinner, we even had a choice. It was great all sitting around having dinner a great sociable experience. The beer is cold and on draft, wine from the fridge and soft drinks all included!

Now to the bikes. The Yamaha MT-09’s were immaculate, well maintained and in tip top condition, there is also MT-07s available. The helmets, clothes and boots were all pretty much brand new condition in all sizes.

The days riding consisted of leaving around 10 am and returning 5-5.30, which is long enough each day, as once you have been on one of Cliffs twist and turns literally all day you come back shattered! The routes are fun, challenging and nothing short of spectacular. We would follow Cliff around the routes (trying to keep up) and have regular breaks, be it water on the side of a mountain or coffee shops around the routes, Lunch was in a restaurant with a free choice of meal. All these stops and lunch are included in the price.

Cliff makes the riding fun for all abilities, so if you are a bit nervous or if you think you are Foggy the trips will appeal.

Then on the saddest day, Cliff dropped us off at the airport with plenty of banter the whole drive there. I can truly say they have got this so right, I am currently organising a visit for 7 of us next year.. book early to avoid disappointment.

An extremely big thank you to Biking Abroad. A very professional, friendly and wonderful tour operator. Made my trip thoroughly enjoyable, with awesome, well maintained bikes (Yamaha MT-09s and MT-07s), guided touring (enabling the bikes to be ridden how Yamaha intended), superb accommodation and amazing food. Already looking forward to booking another trip. Absolutely no hesitation to recommend. Go for it, you won't be disappointed!!

Last Day in the sun @ #bikingabroadspain. Cliff has again been a most excellent host, providing great guided routes and his cooking has been amazing. The transformation if the new property is fantastic and I'm looking forward to see it 100% complete for my next trip. The new beer taps with the local brews are second to none. I would highly recommend the Turia and the IPA. How he manages to do it all amazes me, what a focused and hard working individual he is. Keep up the great work Cliff and thanks again for a fantastic trip.

I'm not eloquent enough to put it into words the roads and rides out are only secondary to the hospitality, 2nd to non

This was my 3rd time back and as soon as the airlines releases the flights will be booking for next year. Cliff & Carol are excellent hosts providing a great hassle free all round package. 10/10 Cheers Cliff, Carol see you next year

Surpassed all expectations in every aspect of the trip. Pre-holiday communication was excellent. Attention to detail in many respects throughout the whole stay. Spotlessly clean villa, bikes and borrowed protective clothing. Gorgeous routes, pit stops and scenery. Respectful of the local culture and language, no Brits abroad here. Perfect integration of relaxation and thrills. Excellent food, we were treated to both delicious home cooking eaten al fresco and trips to a mix of authentic Spanish eateries. Figs and olive oil from the host's own trees and groves. Wonderful hospitality with hosts who evidently work extremely hard behind the scenes to make the trip effortless for their guests. Every detail is taken care of. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Had a great trip with Carol and Cliff. Accommodation was lovely, the pool was fab after a days riding too.The bikes were spotless and perfect for the twisty roads and as for the roads, they were simply awesome as was the scenery! Highly recommended and will be back next year.

Cliff and Carol gave us a great week,everything was spot on,food,drink,accomodation and hospitality.
The bikes and riding were superb with perfect roads.
I cant fault anything and would recommend it to any rider, I cant wait to get back.

Just had another fantastic week with Cliff and Carol at Biking Abroad Ontinyent, once again they were superlative hosts and really looked after us. Thoroughly enjoyed my times out on the bike with Cliff had a look at the house they are developing to accomodate more guests looks fantastic and wish them all the best with this.

We had a first class experience, from when we were met at the airport to our return. As all of our biking clothing was supplied, we only needed cabin luggage on the plane. Carol and Cliff made us feel at home, all meals were delicious and the accommodation superb. The Yamaha MT09 were perfect for the twisty mountain roads, handling brilliantly and with plenty of grunt! The scenery was outstanding. Would totally recommend, already rebooked for next year!

From the moment we arrived Cliff and Carol welcomed us into their home like friends. We enjoyed three fantastic days of riding through scenic mountain roads and to the coast with monasteries, lakes and beautiful quaint and quiet Spanish villages thrown into the mix - it truly was the real Spain. This trip is not about how fast you can ride or how many miles you can do in a day it's about experiencing everything around you and taking the time to absorb it. What makes this holiday unique is the small group experience, its more intimate and personal, a place to make new friends, and the all-inclusive aspect makes you feel really spoilt! Excellent food, cooked with real care and attention, wonderful breakfasts with so much choice, lunch out on the road and regular coffee stops throughout the day, traditional meals in the evening such as tapas and paella accompanied with beers, local wines and spirits, and wonderful conversation around the table. Thoroughly recommended.

Like riding out with friends
Lovely twisty roads in sunny southern Spain with beautiful scenery -lakes, coast and castles. Add in some truly excellent local bars and excellent hospitality and this trip really couldn't be better. Cliff and Carol make you feel welcome from the moment you step in the door. The food is amazing, the company is great and they even have friendly cats. Second trip out with them and suspect we will be back. Five stars!

My second visit ,hopefully not my last .Cliff and Carol genuinely make each and every guest welcome. The whole experience ,bike routes ,catering are exceptional 5 star . By the end of the week leaving was like saying goodbye to family .
See you again

Having been on several tours in Europe & Spain either with other companies or with friends, my recent experience with Biking Abroad has certainly raised the bar to a totally new level. Between the wonderful and friendly hospitality received from Cliff & Carol who treated us like family to exhilarating ride outs, fantastic roads and beautiful countryside of the Valencian & Alicante regions of Spain, I can see myself never again looking anywhere else. Top Shelf Guys!!!, can't wait to book my next trip.😀😀😀😀

I spent Christmas 2018 with Cliff & Carol and had a fantastic time. Excellent accommodation with superb food and they were lovely friendly hosts. The local roads are fantastic to ride on and the scenery is stunning to say the least. The bikes were very well maintained and gleaming. My holiday was all inclusive, and all inclusive it was, both at their villa and out on the road; food, drinks, fuel, absolutley everything. I’ve booked to go back this year and can’t wait.

My other half doesn’t have fb .. so is writing on mine .. I have been out to cliff n carol 3 times and loved the experience so much .. Beautifull scenery .. love the roads .. n very accommodating .. I’m a vegatarian n nothing was to much trouble .. will be going back for my 4 th adventure soon .. anyone who loves riding will love this experience 🏍🏍☕️🍛🛌☀️N a pool to cool down in at the end of the day is an added bonus

To be honest this was the best holiday I’ve ever had and trying to find something that is a negative is almost impossible. The hosts and the accommodation and food was great. The only downside was we had a very small amount of drizzle high in the mountains! I would recommend to anyone
