For more insights on why the Canadian Rockies are a top destination for cyclists, please visit this page.

What should I pack for the custom tour?

You should pack based on the season you’ll be travelling. For example, for our summer adventures, we advise packing light and airy clothing, since the days can become quite mild. Ensure you bring your swimmingwear, as opportunities to dip in some of the world’s most beautiful lakes will be plentiful! Additionally, hot springs and hot tubs are available at some hotels you’ll be visiting. In Winter, it’s advised that you bring layers of warm clothing. It gets cold and icy in the Rockies. And a nice pair of waterproof shoes, a waterproof jacket, and pants are also prudent. Also, don’t forget your toque, gloves and scarf! Lastly, if applicable, bring enough prescription medication for the trip.
