Spice Roads Cycling Tour Accommodation , South East Asia and Sri Lanka

Accommodation during cycling tours is provided by the cycle company Spice Roads and can usually be confirmed before making your booking.  Like Experience Travel, Spice Roads always aim to focus on local charm, but for logistical reasons, the hotels used may not be featured on the Experience Travel website.

In general, Spice Roads provide 3-4 star accommodation that gives you a feel for the local culture while complementing the beautiful natural surroundings. However, the challenges involved in the planning of a cycling tour sometimes mean that organisers need to get creative!  From time to time, a cycling route runs through an area where there is no accommodation, and in these cases, Spice Roads source friendly local families who are willing to lend a hand (North Laos and North Thailand), or they arrange accommodation as guests of the Buddhist monks at the local monastery (Burma).

When areas are newly developed or isolated, the accommodation options may be quite basic, but in these cases, the compromise is for one night only. A support team is always sent ahead to ensure the maximum possible cleanliness and comfort. More often than not, these authentic accommodation options turn out to be the more memorable experience of the cycling tour!
