Lans End John O'Groat's

My son & I had a fantastic time and it was one of the best holidays I have ever had. It was really well organised & the four members of staff were as helpful as anyone could have been. I would certainly recommend this challenge to other people. Best regards Mr Collett

A fantastic adventure and challenge

Cycled Lands End to John O'Groats over 12 days. Trip crew and organizing was excellent. Almost every hotel we stayed in was great and the dinners on the whole were very good and plentiful. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and have made some lovely friends along the way. What an achievement!!

Lands End to John O'Groats Cycle Trip – 14 June to 25 June 2016.

This was a fully supported cycle trip which enabled me to realise a long held dream. From first contact Discover Adventure has been very professional. The pre-expedition documentation was appropriate and accurate. The accommodation and food was to a very high standard particularly bearing in mind that many of the lunches had to be prepared "on the Road". The event was supported by three vans and a team of five comprising team leaders, catering help, bicycle technicians and everything we needed. As an unconnected group of 42 individuals the leaders had many personalities and issues to deal with and each of those was dealt with professionally and calmly. I felt entirely comfortable throughout the entire adventure. This was a significant event for me I was made all the more memorable by the professionalism and support of Discover Adventure. As an example, their professionalism even extended to the way that my bike was packed for transit and return to me by courier. Thoroughly recommended.

well organised but informal, which created a lovely atmosphere. plenty of snacks and water at stops, though the sandwiches felt a tad bit petrol garage bought. great job of marking the route. provision of download routes in advance would have been good. would do again :)

Unmistakeably the best trip I've been on which is mainly down to the impeccable team at Discover Adventure.

I took part in the Land's End to John O'Groats cycle ride. It was a superb challenger that I did for myself and the charity. Discover adventure were second to none in providing only the best logistical, mechanical and nutritional support. I would use hem again anyday!

Excellent organisation and great support.

I completed LEJOG with Discovery Adventure and found the organisation fantastic and the support crew excellent. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they managed to maintain a very professional but friendly relationship throughout the trip. The hotels were very good and the food was exceptional and plentiful. The route was beautiful and a true challenge to me, I found the whole experience very rewarding and great fun.

From my initial inquiry to the final post LEJOG celebration dinner Discover Adventure have been friendly and efficient. All my pre-trip information arrived in plenty of time, the support on the trip was excellent and the overall package delivered what had been promised. I would highly recommend them to other thrill seekers.
