Extra Info
Skill Level — Moderate
It is difficult to give e-bike tours a difficulty level! If you are booking this tour with an electric bike, the tour rating will depend on the amount of battery assistance you use. It could be easy, or it could be moderate to difficult! If you are booking this tour with a road or gravel, it will be moderate to difficult. The majority of the cyclists will be on e-bikes and will set the pace. On a non-electric bike, you will work much harder to keep up! Regardless, it is assumed that you already have the level of fitness acquired from steady cycling and that you have good balance and good control of the bicycle. Please note: Electric bikes are heavier than non-electric bikes. Participants will need to master long and steep climbs which present little or no problem with the use of the e-bikes. The tours will traverse heights of between 400 and 700m with daily distances ranging between 20 to 55 km through mountainous terrain. Tours can be completed without any time constraints. Streets are mostly asphalted with little traffic.
Airport Info
Fly to the airport of Split which is about 6 km from your port of embarkation in Trogir.
It is also possible to fly to the airports of Dubrovnik or Zadar. From these airports, we can offer fee-based individual transfers. Please ask

This is an additional check on security rather than a visa.Extra Stay
The medieval town of Trogir has an almost museum-like character well worth extensive forays through the city and the surroundings. The wonderfully preserved old town is located on an island connected to the mainland and the island of Čiovo by bridges. Split is amazing as well.
