“Loved the beautiful routes. Many times we were on very low-traffic roads, just us and the goats, sheep, and herders! Lots of climbing, but such gorgeous scenery made it all worthwhile. The staff was wonderful, as always, and we had great camaraderie with a wonderful group of riders.”
Mediterranean history and culture come to life as we pedal thru Spain, Algeria, Tunisia and Sicily

“The Road of Empires is a fascinating journey back through the earliest stages of recorded history. To do that in places that see few travellers is truly an experience not to be missed. Seeing local Algerian families casually enjoying a picnic among centuries old Roman ruins made these ancient sites unbelievably accessible. There is no greater joy than to have local folks welcome you to their country, treat you like a friend and then ask you to come back again.”
“Spectacular scenery, ridge tops, valleys, Mediterranean views, long climbs and exhilarating descents. Most of the roads were either deserted or had good shoulders. This is a great way to see the people and cultures of northern Africa, the moorish influence on Spain, the food of Sicily.”
