A sampling of tours on sale includes (all discounts of up to $600 USD):

Catalonia & Costa Brava, Spain (Biking): Get ready for the ultimate Catalonia & Costa Brava biking adventure. With 6 days of guided rides curated by professional cyclists, this tour invites you to pedal through some of Spain’s most stunning landscapes, from Girona’s iconic climbs to the serene beauty of Lake Banyoles and the rugged coastal charm of Tossa de Mar. You’ll experience the freedom of the open road, the camaraderie of other cycling enthusiasts, and the unforgettable vistas of Spain’s northeastern coast. On and off the bike, this region of Spain deserves your attention—the cities are charming, the coastline is breathtaking, and the food is beyond mouthwatering. Long known as one of the top regions to bike for pro riders, Catalonia & Costa Brava is calling. Will you answer?

Tuscany, Italy (Biking): Get ready to live out your Italian cycling fantasies on the ultimate trip through Tuscany. With five days dedicated entirely to pedaling through vineyard-covered hillsides and to quaint perched villages, you know you’re in for quite the adventure. You’ll conquer tough—yet rewarding—climbs around San Gimignano, ride to wine tastings at vineyards in Chianti, and cruise through picturesque pastures and hillsides in the Val d’Orcia region. Along the way, medieval towns and castles await (you’ll even have the chance to dine in one!), as well as food so spectacular, it’s what put Tuscany on the map as a culinary hotspot. This is the land of pecorino cheese and pappa al pomodoro (Tuscan tomato and bread soup), after all. We’ve got all the gear and professional cyclist-curated routes waiting—all you need to do is take the plunge and jet over to Tuscany.

Camino de Santiago, Spain (Hiking): The Camino de Santiago, a network of ancient routes converging at the shrine of St. James in northwestern Spain, is the holy grail of pilgrimage treks. This tour offers highlights from three distinct Camino paths—the Camino Francés, Camino del Norte, and Camino Portugués, each with its own allure. Expect a little bit of everything: challenging hikes through the rugged Picos de Europa mountains, scenic walks past the rocky coastline of northern Spain, and leisurely strolls through medieval Galician villages and alongside terraced vineyards in Portugal. Whether you’re seeking personal enlightenment or an invigorating challenge, this journey immerses you in the diverse beauty of the Iberian Peninsula. The Camino de Santiago promises an inspiring experience that will leave you in awe of its rich history, stunning landscapes, and enduring spiritual significance. And boy does it deliver.

Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu, Peru (Hiking): If you’ve been looking for an unforgettable hiking adventure, your search stops here. Deep in the Andes mountains of Peru, where towering peaks give way to ancient valleys, you’ll tackle challenging trails, explore Inca ruins, and immerse yourself in the rich cultures of Cuzco and the Sacred Valley. You’ll hike to lesser-known Incan sites like Pumamarca and trek a portion of the world-famous Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. When you aren’t breaking a sweat on the trails, you’ll be connecting with indigenous communities, savoring traditional Peruvian cuisine, and bonding with your group at every turn. Any trip to Peru is an adventure, but this one takes things to a whole new level—and we mean this literally, because you’ll be hiking at high elevations throughout this tour. Pace yourself, drink lots of water, and you’ll have the time of your life.

Crete & Santorini, Greece (Multi-Adventure): Prepare for an adrenaline-fueled Greek odyssey across two of the country’s most stunning islands. Begin in Crete, Greece’s largest island, a land of rugged mountains, dramatic coastlines, and rich culinary traditions. Here, each day brings a new thrill: cycle along dramatic cliffsides; hike from the top of Samaria Gorge, Europe’s second-largest canyon; kayak the crystal-clear waters off the coast; then island-hop to breathtaking Santorini, a small volcanic island with some of the world’s most stunning vistas. In this postcard-perfect setting, snorkel in the caldera’s azure waters, soak in volcanic hot springs, and hike the spectacular rim from Fira to Oia. In between all that adventuring, you’ll catch your breath dining on local Greek specialties, exploring pristine coves, and discovering some of the most picturesque villages Greece’s islands have to offer—maybe even with a glass of local white wine while admiring the sunset over the Aegean.

Chiang Mai & Phuket, Thailand (Multi-Adventure): Gorgeous, gem-colored coves. Staggering peaks and pagoda-topped summits. Temples and Buddha statues for days. Thailand really does have it all, and we’ve packed the best of the country’s rich culture, unreal natural beauty, and land-and-sea adventures into the ultimate tour that balances adrenaline with wellness. In Chiang Mai, you’ll cycle through rice paddies, zipline through forests, and visit an elephant sanctuary at the forefront of responsible tourism. Heading south, Phuket serves as your gateway to natural wonders. Explore the famous James Bond Island in Phang Nga Bay and venture into Khao Sok National Park, home to some of the breathtaking Cheow Lan Lake. Along the way, unwind with traditional Thai massages and sunrise yoga sessions, connecting with the country’s spiritual side. One thing’s for sure—by the end of this tour, you’ll already be planning your return.

Inclusive pricing for tours covers lodging, equipment maintenance and usage (including bikes, helmets, etc.), luggage transfers to lodging, most healthy-inspired and fuel-powered meals, amazing and knowledgeable tour directors and local guides who will teach travelers about all that is wonderful about the communities they visit across the planet. EF Adventures can book flights also for travelers.
