[Closed] Looking for Pyrenean Holiday Co

[#1138005]

I'm tasked with sorting out a roadie holiday as a 50th celebration for a mate

What we are looking for is a relaxed Atlantic to Med [or vice versa] trip across the Pyrenees, fully supported hotels etc.

I did have somewhere bookmarked but I've lost it & can't find it again 😕
I've found plenty of places doing the Pyrenean Raid 100hrs thing but that's far too serious for this particular riding/eating/drinking chilled out trip

Anyone know of such a company?

Check out [url= http://www.altitudeadventure.com/transpyrenees.php ]altitude adventure[/url], they do a trans pyrenees package. I don't know anything about them to be honest. No connections with me (fairly obviously!)

i know a few people who have been out with altitude adventure for the past few years and all rave about their service. i'm off to experience it for myself in 2010 😀

Thanks for that but I'm looking for a roadie trip rather than a MTB one

although it does look rather good so I'll keep that one for a future plan

Another vote for altitude adventure. I know Ian from doing all the Mountain Leader / Bike Guide training courses with him. Top bloke and should also be fully French-qualified for next summer.

[url= http://www.aquickrelease.com ]A Quick Release (AQR)[/url] run both road and MTB holidays from their base in Luchon. There's a fair few famous TdF climbs round there, it's a great hotel and the chef is amazing. 🙂

Cheers Mackem - I'll look at that

back to the altitude adventure one
The Trans Pyrenees holiday looks cracking but £1125 for a week's camping + flights is a bit rich for me

Another vote for altitude adventures, i've been out the past 2 years, fantastic riding and amazing food. I believe they might be able to do road packages, and are based on the route of the Pyrenean Raid road event
