Pedal Britain Anmeldelser 

Great LEJOG route that avoids conurbations as much as possible and majors on the picturesque. Good quality preparation work, with a good amount of detail from Darren and the crew without being overwhelming. The choice of accommodation is great and the food stops were above and beyond.

Special mention to the guides, Rad, Ashley and Les; you really couldn't ask for more knowledge, support and competence, honestly. I expected great things and was still surprised at these guys. I'll never forget the experience and I'm glad I chose Pedal Britain.

Here's the unfortunate part. Bike collection was smooth; Darren Picked mine up and it arrived safely at Land's End. Bike return, however was by Parcel Force (I had paid for return by Pedal Britain, but there was no van passing). It was disassembled and very poorly packed in a box with virtually no packing. The chain was loose, the saddle was badly scuffed, the mudguards and wheel axles were loose in the box, which was not marked 'Fragile' or 'This Way Up'. When delivered, the box was sideways in the van with other boxes piled on top.
The titanium frame is cosmetically damaged, the carbon fork dropouts are chewed up at the bottom, the rear Bagman rack was bent and pushed into the carbon seatpost, damaging it and the mudguards were bent and damaged. I accounted for cosmetic damage prior to the trip and asked Darren to contact PF to replace the rack, seatpost and mudguards only.

I understand from Darren that this is rare and one of those things which, from the other reviews, sounds about right. But, two months on from the trip, radio silence has fallen and it looks like I'm swallowing the cost, for now at least. In my opinion, Pedal Britain should have stood the cost to me and claimed from Parcel Force themselves. As it stands, Pedal Britain are blanking me and I can't claim from Parcel Force as I wasn't their customer (and it's probably too late by now anyway).I didn't want to leave a negative review, but I left it as long as I felt I could.

Prior to this, my review would have been five stars with a bullet, so take it for what it is.

Update: three months later;no further contact and no resolution. One star removed for the damage and one for the lack of follow up.

I would still consider booking with them again, but I would arrange my own bike transfer.

My second trip with PB and I can see this becoming a way of life! 🤩
Just back from End to End France and it was fantastic with a tremendous sense of achievement. The organisation and logistics are all managed seamlessly by a slick team and all our needs facilitated- whilst bonding as a group of friends and keeping the human touch. Jamie and Ken supported and encouraged with a cheerful disposition no matter what, and nothing was too much trouble.
The route is stunning, with bike-friendly roads and amazing scenery, and the accommodation much smarter than anything I’d book for myself! 😁 Bikes and riders comfortably accommodated every night!
As a female solo traveller these things can be a bit intimidating, but I’ve been so comfortable with PB on both occasions and highly recommend them. Thanks team 😊

Epic.... Just finished the relatively new Portugal Tour and wow whilst it is tough it is so rewarding and the vistas just stunning. Probably the toughest of the PB tours I've done so far including LEJOG but I highly recommend it to anyone. Mick and Jamie, once again you were incredible guides and above all great friends on this tour and my previous tours. Thank you to Darren and the team. See you next year for NC500 and France! I'm hooked!!

What a fabulous trip - such a great way to experience Portugal! So many wonderful memories. Jamie and Mick were tremendous hosts throughout and the group dynamic was special too. Thanks so much to all of the team for the organisation and meticulous planning, as well as the memorable tea stops and picnic lunches. 10 / 10 💪💪💪

Just brilliant all round

Just back from France end to end. Another great tour organised by Pedal Britain which went like clockwork from start to finish. The support and encouragement from the tour leaders Jamie & Ken made the challenge so enjoyable. A last minute issue with accommodation on the last night was dealt with swiftly enabling us to celebrate our immense achievements.
Would definitely recommend Pedal Britain if you’re thinking of undertaking such a cycling challenge.

A truly amazing experience. A great way to see the beautiful scenery of Britain. The Pedal Britain team did everything they could to make the trip as enjoyable as possible. Nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was good, the food was excellent and the guides were fantastic. The feed stops are legendary and really helped keep us going along the way. The organisation required to run these trips is incredible and Pedal Britain are experts. I would really recommend them for your next cycle challenge.

I’ve just completed the Pedal Britain 🇬🇧 1,000 miles cycle ride from Land’s End to John o’ Groats in memory of my late husband. As a solo traveller from the very first pedal it was the experience of a lifetime. And although they asked us to leave a review , I would have done anyway.

Paul and Bob, our tireless leaders, worked really hard. Their patience, encouragement, and good humour carried us all the way through Cornwall’s brutal hills, over Dartmoor , and across the endless rolling countryside that seemed to stretch for ever. Nothing was too much trouble for them – whether it was helping us keep the bikes rolling, or making sure every lunch stop ran like clockwork.

The food was great. Every stop had snacks in abundance with flapjacks, fruit, and treats.

The hotels we stayed in were so memorable, – from characterful country inns to welcoming Highland hideaways. The organisation was well planned, to the point where we riders could focus on turning the pedals. You get to see the ever-changing beauty of Britain – Cheddar Gorge, the Lake District climbs, Glasgow’s bustle, the Highlands’ ruggedness .

The whole adventure was rounded off with a curry night and presentation evening in Inverness – laughter, tears, and stories flowing as every rider reflected on what had brought them there. Everyone was riding for their own reasons.

The route is cleverly designed to pass various bike shops along the way, which a few of us needed to visit for extra supplies and essential repairs , this took the mileage total to above the thousand mile mark which is really cool.

If you are ever thinking of taking on this challenge, don’t hesitate to use Pedal Britain and give Darren a call for reassurance. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. I came across them myself through a recommendation from a friend and they didn’t disappoint.

I have just got from the End to End of France tour. What a fantastic experience, great routes, well planned and thought out. Our two guides Mick and Simon were excellent, nothing was to much trouble. Food and accomodation was excellent. We stayed in some amazing French villages. Most of the roads were a dream to cycle on. The French countryside blew me away. Scenary was amazing, jaw dropping gorges, river valleys you name it this tour had it all! I would thoroughly recommend Pedal Britain this was my 4th tour with them, cannot fault them👍🚴🇫🇷

I did the September 2025 LEJOG and despite some awful weather, Paul and Bob always got us to our destinations safely and in good spirits. The brew stops were just when you needed them and well stocked with what you wanted (Paul takes requests). All the hotels and lunch stops were good quality.

I'd recommend Pedal Britain to anyone wanting to do an interesting cycle tour.

Riding LEJOG in September 2025 was a most enjoyable and memorable experience. From the point of booking the information provided was professional, timely and thorough and set high standards maintained throughout the trip. Of course the team of Bob and Paul on the road made the ride a fantastic experience. Paul’s daily briefings coupled with well stocked brew stops and well chosen locations covered everyone’s requirements on the road. As a team they melded a diverse group into a team who supported and encouraged one another and got us all to JOG with smiles on our faces and a great sense of achievement.
I can’t recommend Pedal Britain highly enough.

I had a wonderful time completing LEJOG in September 2025. It is clear how much planning and logistics goes into organising a large and varied group. Our guides, Paul and Bob, were encouraging and professional. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a successful trip and everything we asked for at the brew stops. The accommodation was consistently good and we were treated with some fantastic lunch stops. I would definitely book with Pedal Britain again.

I had a great experience on the September LEJOG tour, riding with old and new friends and being looked after by our Guides Paul and Bob.
Managing the varied needs of a large and varied group during a full day was a challenge. But we got used to the 5 minute deadlines for those of us who took a bit longer, and were well fed along the way.
Between the Guides and the group we quickly developed into a happy and supportive team. Accommodation was good and at times excellent.
Thanks again to our Guides and the group for a great tour.

We had a great time on the Pedal Britain trip. A fabulous quiet route all the way from St Malo to Nice with a good range of hotels, serving French food. The brew stops provided by Pedal Britain team were most appreciated. A big shout out to Mick, Simon and Lewis for looking after us so well. Also to Darren for providing us with the opportunity to take such a unique holiday. We anticipate going on an other adventure in the near future.

THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY St-Malo to Nice. Amazing, well done the Pedal Britain Team. All I had to do was ride my bike, soak up the scenery and refuel myself at the splendid brew stops & lunch locations. Great food en route, even watched the mechanic fix my bike while I was having 2nd’s one day, not forgetting the washer-upper (important part of the team). I felt like a professional. I’ll Be Back. Regards Tony

First time I’ve used Pedal Britain and what an experience riding from St.Malo to Nice. The organisation accommodation and food was first class. A special mention to Darren who organised the trip and Mike and Simon who kept us fed and encouraged us all the way ( thanks guys).Will be back when I’ve decided on the next tour.

The organisation, the route, the hotels were all excellent. However the most important factor is the people Mick and Simon were great at encouraging us when the weather went sour, at keeping us motivated when the hills challenged us , and kept us cheerful and happy throughout.

From the moment of signing up I was impressed with the support and information available - kit list, coach recommendations etc. Darren pitched the information at just the right level of detail and meant I arrived for LEJOG perfectly prepared. Once I arrived I felt in very safe hands with Rad and Ash (and later Les) who were absolutely fantastic at all of the logistics of the trip and made the whole thing possible (mentally for me, as well as the logistics). Their passion for cycling, leadership skills and attention to detail made it seamless and for the trip to run without a hitch. The route and accommodation were fantastic - plus lots of great food stops - all of the brew stops, lunches and dinners. It’s a wonderful trip and I highly recommend Pedal Britain to anyone thinking of doing it.

I had an amazing holiday with Pedal Britain. Darren, Bob and Hayden were fantastic and looked after us all so well. Everything was first rate - from the routes, to the daily specific road advice, to the brew stops and lunches, to looking after our bikes and luggage - nothing was left to chance. They were very well organised and went above and beyond with good humour to make sure that everybody had a great time and had what they needed to succeed. I would have no hesitation in recommending Pedal Britain and would love to do another one of their rides in the future.

What a experianced. All wishes Haß been perfectly fullfiled. I got everyday a cooked eggs. What for a wonderfull Team.
