3. Cycle Southern Spain – Murcia
Spain’s southern region of Murcia averages more than 320 days of sun each year. Escape the busy beach resorts for the whitewashed villages and Moorish towers of the interior, which is blanketed in miles of fruit orchards and connected cycle paths – discovering the region by bike is ideal.

The Lemosho route is less frequented and more scenic than other routes to the summit and climbs and descends on different trails, so you’ll get many chances to view the varied landscapes.

15. Discover Chernobyl
It’s just eight years since Chernobyl was declared safe for tourists, and each year more and more people visit to see the eerie Exclusion Zone for themselves and learn more about the nuclear reactors and the events that led to the 1986 explosion. Our short trip to Ukraine also visits Kiev and always sells out fast, so booking early is recommended.

16. Cycle Saigon to Hanoi
To see the countryside of Vietnam in detail you need to get a little closer to the action: take to two wheels to see the paddy fields, lush hill country and high passes such as Hon Giao. Along the way you’ll stop at Ho Chi Minh City, Hoi An, Hue and Hanoi, refuelling with delicious Vietnamese cuisine.

20. The Golden Triangle
First timers to India are often recommended to begin with the Golden Triangle: the trio of big-hitting sights comprising Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. This tried-and-tested route is the perfect introduction to the colourful, chaotic country, with stops such as the mesmerising Taj Mahal, maharajahs’ palaces and lofty hilltop forts. Our 2020 holidays are now a round trip, ending in Delhi to complete the ‘triangle’.
