Andalucian Cycling Experience - Ronda, Málaga

Christian Kaempfen

I had a great week with Andalucian Cycling Experience. Decent hotel (hotel Polo) with very friendly staff and a great breakfast buffet. Road biked for 4-6 hours every day in mid-March 2024 doing up to 96km and up to 2,000 meter of elevation gain. Definitely challenged my abilities at 60 years old. Beautiful landscape and villages, great routes and Ashley, Drew and the rest of the team did an excellent job organizing and guiding us. The rental bike was great. I highly recommend ACE and will for sure return.

I've just had a brilliant week in Portugal with Andalucian Cycling Experience. The cycling was excellent with a variety of rides, all tailored to what suited our group. Our guides, Ashley and Drew, were very flexible and supportive. The accommodation was very good, located next to a wonderful sandy beach with fantastic sunsets, and my fellow cyclists were all great company. All in all, a fabulous holiday!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ashley & Clare. They did an amazing job putting together a three & a half week custom, self guided road cycling tour for us. Communication was always prompt. Bikes were in excellent condition. The routes were easy to follow. I always felt safe. I had a long list of what we wanted & did not want - ACE delivered. I have now cycled in 29 countries & this trip is certainly in the top 3.

Me and a friend had an incredible week cycling with Andalucian Cycling Experience. The routes picked out by Ashley and the team were amazing. Accomodation was also great. We travelled with our bikes but next time we would probably rent from ACE. Honestly cannot reccomend enough!

I had a fantastic experience with Andalucian Cycling Experience. I am an amateur road racer in the US and wanted a week of training before the spring season to improve my endurance and climbing skills (and of course to ride in gorgeous southern Spain). I rode with Andalucian Cycling for one week with Ashley. There were three other riders who signed up that week and we were able to choose from two pace groups each day. Ashley took us on a different route every day with lengths around 80-100 km and provided a great pace that wasn't too aggressive but also challenged us (he is an incredible cyclist who seems to never get tired!). We had one rest day in the middle of the week and all of the rides included at least one coffee / toast stop. I had such a great time on this week of riding and felt like it helped me become a stronger rider, especially on long climbs. I rented a Wilier road bike, which was comfortable and fast. Ashley also set me up with housing in Ronda, which was a beautiful, newly-renovated apartment within walking distance of the historic core of Ronda. Ronda is such a lovely town to stay in and has great food options, beautiful surroundings and few tourists (at least in the winter). I will absolutely return to ride with Andalucian Cycling Experience again and 100% recommend it to other cyclists who are looking to enjoy beautiful scenic rides, improve their fitness and become stronger racers.

I've almost finished a perfect week's Gravel biking in Ronda. I'd recommend this family firm who are professional and can tailor the distance to your needs.

The transfer to and from Malaga airport was seamless, the accommodation was clean modern and only a 5 minute walk from the bike shop. And the rides and gravel were great!

Cycled with Ash and Drew in the Algarve, Portugal last week. Great trip through our cycling club (TCR). Happy with the routes, coffee stops, top notch rental and all. We had a 55 km group and 80+ km group.

This was our first cycling holiday but won't be our last. We went on the leisure cycling experience in a small group of 6. Ashley was a perfect guide, responsive and very helpful and accommodating. We both started on hybrid bikes but my wife was able to upgrade to an e-bike for 3 days. Some of the cycle rides were to and from Ronda but we also got taken a bit further by van to get out into some beautiful countryside and mountain villages. The accommodation was perfect for us at the hotel San Francisco with a comfortable bed, a hearty breakfast to start the day and a sunny roof terrace to relax on at the end of the day. Thanks Ashley and Claire for arranging an amazing holiday!
