Practical advice for your bike tour

When is the best time to go?

The ideal seasons for cycling in Greece are spring and autumn. From March to June and September to October, the weather is pleasantly warm, the landscapes are vibrant with wildflowers or autumnal colors, and the tourist crowds are smaller. These periods allow you to enjoy the best of the climate while the sea is still warm enough for a post-ride swim.

What should you pack?

For a comfortable and safe journey, preparation is key. In addition to your cycling attire, be sure to bring layers for cooler mornings and evenings, sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), and a reusable water bottle. While we provide repair kits, knowing some basic bike maintenance is always helpful. For a comprehensive checklist, check out our bike trip packing guide on our blog.
