By: Pure Adventures This is one selling point to consider along with a recommendation to look at their “off-peak” Fewer crowds, weather accommodating active vacations, lavender and poppy fields abloom, lower air fares and the strength of the dollar in Europe become value-added rationales for spring travel, said Loren Siekman, Pure Adventures (http://pure- “We can accommodate 11th hour reservations for our guaranteed-departure self-guided bicycle trips,” he added. These trips allow one or several family members and friends traveling together the peace of mind that travel plans are in hand before they begin their trip. Flexible start dates for departure mean that clients can travel according to their own schedules; itineraries can also be modified on an as-needs basis. “You pick who you travel with, a spouse, a child, a friend. You are not lumped together with a group of strangers on self-guided plans,” he said. Because there’s no minimum number of guests required for a self-guided departure (you can even do it solo if you wish), this translates to no disappointments because of canceled or delayed departures. The staff can even help bail out folks whose trip was cancelled by another tour operator that couldn’t meet required minimums. He cited an example of a client, Eric of Rockport, ME, whose trip with another company in Spain was canceled on March 29 for travel this spring. The couple had already booked air and pre and post-trip extensions in a particular region. “They just needed a new trip in between. They didn't have a lot of time to find a new trip that could work for those exact dates but we accommodated them. On April 13 they booked a self-guided bicycle tour in Spain with us and are traveling May 26 to June 1,” reports Siekman.
