Cycling holiday Sevilla Cadiz Individual
8 Day individual cycling holiday in unspoilt Andalusia, through rolling hills to the beach. You start this tour in Seville and cycle through different landscapes to the oldest city in Europe, Cádiz. Through the Coto Doñana Natural Park, the Brazo del Este bird sanctuary, through the hills around Arcos de la Frontera you reach the endless coastal region with the beautiful beaches of Chipiona and Rota. This week is not only about enjoying cycling through varied nature, it is also a culinary experience where you can taste the specialties of the region.
Day 1.
You will be picked up from the airport by Pedrotours and taken to your accommodation in Seville. There we discuss all the information you need for a carefree week while enjoying a welcome drink. We adjust the bikes to your personal wishes (saddle height, handlebar height, etc.) and give you insider tips for your first evening in this beautiful, elegant city and then your Andalusian adventure can begin!
Overnight stay Ilunion Alcora or equivalent hotel.
Day 2. Tour Seville
Today you can discover Seville by bike. Seville has an excellent cycle route network, developed since 2007. Today’s route is around 30 km and goes along the main streets, squares and monuments.The shopping streets excel in elegance, also note the beautiful flamenco dresses in the shop windows.
In the evening you can eat delicious tapas and – for those who wanted to – experience the passionate flamenco dance up close.
Overnight stay Ilunion Alcora or equivalent hotel.
Day 3. Sevilla El Rocio
From the hotel you cycle to the pilgrimage site ‘El Rocio’; a trip on the paths used by thousands of pilgrims who come to this village every year at easter to honor the virgin Rocio. They come from far and wide, with horses and horse-drawn carts and because of the Andalusian flamenco clothing it is a colorful whole. The journey there is considered to be just as important as the ceremony at the virgin Rocio herself.
Even if you cycle outside the pilgrimage week, it is an experience to follow this route that runs through the beautiful Coto Doñana Natural Park. The majority are gravel and sand paths, easy to ride with the bicycles at your disposal. The arrival and the staying in el Rocio, the ‘cowboy village’ with dirt roads and white houses that you share with a small group of permanent residents, is a unique experience. Overnight in Rocio

Day 7. Jerez de la Frontera – Cádiz
The last cycling day is a mix of cycling through a very varied landscape and visiting 3 small coastal towns: you cycle to the sea. From Jerez to Sanlucar de Barrameda, through a beautiful rolling area of vineyards and wheat
fields. Sanlucar de Barrameda is a seaside and port town, located on the same Guadalquivir that we already know from Seville and Coria del Rio. You can take a short break here to taste the best ’tortillitas de camarones’
and see some of this surprising town. Then you drive parallel to the coast in about one hour to Chipiona. This coastal town is very popular with Spaniards from Seville. It has beautiful white sandy beaches, there are many
eateries along the boulevard; all in all very relaxing. In Rota, the third coastal town, there is time for a drink and a swim, before you take the ferry to the oldest city in Western Europe: Cádiz.
