Active England is an active travel tour company, which takes it’s guests walking and cycling from gardens to castles, travelling through fields, down winding lanes, along hills and hedgerows right into the heart of the British countryside. Our guests really get to experience Britain at its best, travelling like a local, along back lanes and through backdoors. Rather than sitting on buses and staring through windows, we choose bike trails and footpaths.
From London to Windsor, Oxford, Churchill’s Blenheim Palace, Shakespeare’s Stratford, Bath, Stonehenge, Downton Abbey, the Cotswolds, Devon and Cornwall - our tours visit the REAL England in all its glory.
One of our tours takes guests cycling through Dorset, along the seafront through Bournemouth and Poole, up to Sandbanks. Our guests get to stay at the Elizabethan Mortons hotel. In the same tour, guests get to visit the historic landscape of Corfe Castle and ride into the heart of the Isle of Purbeck, the beautiful Wareham for coffee and the seaside town of Swanage. Guests will then ride to Lulworth Cove and onto the majestic sea arch at Durdle Door.
Guests stay in the best 3* and 4* hotels in the South West region, with unbeatable settings, wonderful accommodation and stunning food. Further options are available for those who want to stay in a country cottage location or in a selection of hand-picked pubs.
Bike as much or as little as you like, a support vehicle is with the guided tours at all times. With a fleet of hybrid bikes and e-bike options, most of the biking is off road and traffic-free. Helmets as standard, just bring you shoes and pedals if you have them and away you go. All activities are optional and you can choose to have a ½ day or full day off whenever you like! Our guides and mechanics will fix all major equipment issues and get you back on the road as soon as possible.
