The Summer Feet Difference

With Summer Feet, travelers are given an up close and personal look at each destination as the "locals" would
see it---in the form of spectacular scenery, accommodation at charming inns and lodges,

The Best Tour Leaders In The Business
On Summer Feet's cycling tours, guests are accompanied by two leaders and a support vehicle.
All of the tour leaders are wonderful people who possess a rare combination of charisma, cycling
expertise, regional knowledge, and a sincere desire to make each trip truly memorable. All of the tour
guides believe that leading tours with Summer Feet is the most exciting job in the industry, and their
passion is evident throughout each tour. The guides are a diverse group and a key part of the Summer
Feet family. The support vehicle---another key feature on Summer Feet Cycling tours---offers a
welcome resting place for weary travelers in addition to snacks, beverages, directions, and first
aid.
Getting a Great ValueAs a smaller more specialized company,
Summer Feet Cycling is able to offer travelers much more for their dollar than
larger tour companies:
• The first day of each trip is a full day of cycling (not a “welcome day”), which
accounts for 16% more vacation for the travel dollar
• Instead of having limited dining choices from a pre-selected menu, Summer Feet
takes travelers to the best restaurants and lets them choose whatever they want
• All activities are included on each tour---no hidden fees
Self-Guided Tours
In addition to guided bicycle tours, Summer Feet Cycling offers self-guided and customized tours.
Self-guided bicycle tours are perfect for independent cyclists looking to explore the best of
Maine at their own pace. Travelers choose the start date and Summer Feet arranges all lodging, route maps, luggage transfers, and beginning and ending transportation. Each day, travelers enjoy a hearty breakfast at each inn before they set off on
their adventure. Self -guided tours can be customized to meet each travelers’ needs in terms
of length of the tour and daily cycling mileages. There is a 5-day minimum on all self-guided tours.
Destinations: Some of the World’s Most Appealing Destinations

One of the best ways to explore the natural beauty and cultural wonders of the world is “in the saddle”
