Send us messageSpring in Croatia is sublime and April, May and June are absolutely lovely. Autumn is probably best time of year as the landscape is made up of a gold and red pallet so September and October are unmissable. July and August can be hot so you will have to start early to miss the heat of the day, although the towns and villages are busier with many seasonal festivals on which is great. During July and August you can expect much more traffic on the road and crowds in the towns and on the beach.
We offer self guided, semi guided and guided tours.
Self guided trips: you can choose your start date, we book lodging in requested category, provide bikes and neccessary equipment for rental, transfer your luggage from hotel to hotel, provide roadbook in digital form (printed roadbook only if ordered in advance) and Fiore App for offline navigation with voice guidance and information about the POI’s. Advangage of self guided tours: You leave every morning when you wish, excited by cycling on your own, choose the pace you want, enjoy exploring towns and villages without rushing.
Semi guided tours: if you like self guided style but need some more support, you can opt for a semi guided option. We will add a support van with English speaking driver who will provide assistance during your activities and make sure everything goes smootly with your trip. In case of rain or you feel tired or you have a flat tyre or a mechanical problem with the bike, a driver with the van will be around to help you. We can included some extra activities and experiences in the tour programe. This option is very good for small groups and families.
Guided tour: you have to leave in the morning at the certain time, respect the daily group activities (tastings, meals, activities, visits), you will have a guide who will share insight at each destination, support van in case you get tired.
Please be reassured that an average fitness is absolutely fine for most of our tours.
To best enjoy your tour, you should be riding your bike at least every week and be comfortable spending time on the saddle! Please check difficulty level for each tour on our website or check with us which tour is the best fit for you.
We carefully design routes that are not only scenic but we also pay attention to safety. We mostly stay on the backroads. On some itineraries, there may be sections of the route where you will have to cross a busy intersection or maybe share the road with traffic for a short stretch, especilly when approaching the town or in the town centre. More traffic can be expected during months of July and August as this is a high tourist season. Most of our routes use paved roads and some section on dedicated bike paths. On some itineraries, we may use bike paths or backroads that include stretches of hard-packed dirt or gravel.
Self guided tours can start any day you prefer from April to November. Some self guided trips are also available in March and November.
We can customise the tour for you. We can add extra days for relax or add extra activity where additional cost may apply.
You can choose between two categories: classic 3* and premium 4*. On some tours we have also luxury 5* option available.
For the classic tour you’ll mainly stay in small, locally-run, guesthouses and 3 or 4 star hotels, which reflect the character of the area.
If you choose a premium tour you will be staying at 4* boutique style hotels.
Detailed information about lodging you can find on our web page and in our PDF brochure.
On some tours we offer also luxury option which includes 5* hotels or a mix of upscale 4* and 5* hotels.

Yes we do, mostly on arrival day or following day before the ride for the trips starting in Triest. We like to meet our guests in person in order to give the clients full information about the upcoming trip as well as bicycles and accessories. Generally it is scheduled at 19:00 / 7 p.m. for clients with independent arrival or next day at 9:00/9am for the trips starting in Triest. In case you come with our organized transfer it can be rescheduled to fit the arrival to the first accommodation.
On all tours, whether guided or self-guided, your luggage is transferred to your following night’s accommodation. Luggage transfer is mostly carried out by Fiore Tours, by sometimes we use also the accommodation provider or a local taxi service. Luggage needs to be ready at lobby at hotel until 9:00/9am in morning and transported to your next accommodation until 16:00/4pm. All details about local transfers and luggage transfers you will be informed at info meeting at your arrival day.
There is no support van following the group on self guided tours. But we can help and organize transportation for you and the bikes, where additional costs will apply.
If you are too exhausted to continue, or if it rains, you can contact us and we will be happy to organize transport for you and your bike to the next hotel where additional costs will apply.
If you have booked a self guided cycling trip we can’t guarantee that you can ride with the luggage transfer service as this depends on the size of the vehilcle planned for the luggage transfer and vehiclea aren’t heading straight to your hotels as they may have to go to different hotels to drop off the luggage. The best way is to contact Fiore the day before and if there is a chance that we have enough big vehicle to transport you, your luggage and bikes, we will confirm this service free of charge. If not possible we can help in organising your transport where additional costs will apply.
In case of puncture:
Our bikes always come with pump, 1 spare tube and tire levers so in case of the puncture you can use this kit and change the tube. On self guided tour, we expect that you or someone from your group knows how to change a punctured tube. In case you don’t know how to fix a flat tyre, we can organize help, but there will be additional mechanic or transportation charges.
In case of mechanical issue:
Upon bike pick up you will do the test ride and make sure bike is working properly. In case of any mechanical issue during self guided tour we are available for help and support: suggest or call bike repair shop or provide the repair service or replacement part/bike ourselves. Repair will be paid by the guest directly on the spot. If the mechanical issue happened due to failure of the bike mechanisms and not by improper handling, we do cover repair cost. We consider you or someone from your group should know how to do minor repairs, such as putting your bike chain back on.
Most of your accommodations will be more than happy to provide a packed lunch on request and this can be booked directly at each hotel. Another option is to buy some snacks at nearby shops.
Alternatively, check in your APP to see about stopping at local shops to buy some snacks or lunch stops in local restaurants and caffes along on the way.
Most of the hotel provide laundry service. Check your accommodation website to see what services may be available during your stay. If you are staying in a larger town, there will likely be laundry facilities as well.
We provide a water bottle 750ml to each participant free of charge. Bottles you will receive during welcome meeting with Fiore representative.
Tap water is a better choice than bottled water. When filling the bidon, use tap water. When you need a refill on the way, look for a drinking fountain or ask at a café to have it filled with tap water. It’s free, does not come in a plastic container and, in most places, it is just as good or even better than bottled water.
Check-in times are determined by the accommodation. Some may allow an early check-in where available, but generally, check-in will be from 15:00 / 3pm. If you’ll be late checking in, please contact the accommodation or us.
We welcome feedback after the tour as it’s the best way to get better and improve our service. Once you have completed your trip with Fiore tours, you will receive an e-mail from us how and where to review your experience with Fiore tours.
