The hotel Alcaufar Vell was the highlight of the holiday. The room, food and staff were all fantastic.
A very relaxed experience, in fact, the best we have had with Inntravel so far. Great choice of routes (and days off!). Excellent and well-placed hotels, I really cannot fault it and would do the same holiday over again. Up to your usual standard, thank you so much!
This was a fantastic way of exploring the beautiful and largely unspoilt island of Menorca, with so much history, remote coastlines and hidden coves. Accommodation was excellent, Hotel Es Mercadal in an excellent position close to several superb restaurants and tapas bars right in the centre of the island and Hotel Rural Alcaufar Vell an amazing place set within its own large estate, with an incredibly peaceful atmosphere, close to the south east coast. Wonderful Mediterranean food served by friendly professional staff. We were delighted with our room which had a lovely terrace to sit out on in the evening. Cycling was quite challenging at times as the bikes were heavier than we are used to which added to the work load when cycling up the hills, but the effort was always worthwhile. With the exception of the occasional dirt tracks, road surfaces usually excellent, and motorists generally very considerate. Swimming in the turquoise crystal clear sea and watching innumerable fish swim by with the help of a simple pair of goggles was incredible. This was our first visit to Menorca, and we will definitely return!

One of the best holidays we have had for a long time. Really well thought out and organised. You start at a simple town house hotel and move to a more luxurious manor house, but both provided excellent accommodation and really thoughtful, attentive staff. The cycling routes were excellent and provided a really good insight into the island and the beautiful countryside it has to offer. We would definitely recommend including the longer option to Cap de Favaritx as this was well worth it. Allow plenty of time to wander around S'Albufera Natural Park as this was another highlight for us. A visit to both Ciutedella and Mahon in the afternoon/evening is also easily done after a day's cycling. If you are interested in birdwatching, we would recommend a half or full day tour with local bird guide Javier Mendez (http://menorcawalkingbirds.com), a wonderful experience.
Loved every minute of this holiday. Menorca in May is a mini-Eden. Lots and lots of gorgeous wildflowers, lush green vegetation and wonderful solitary sandy coves. The cycling routes were terrific and took you through a variety of landscapes so I came away feeling like I had had a real flavour of the island. Both hotels were great, the people friendly and the drivers courteous to cyclists. Oh and also great for birdwatching! Would not hesitate to book again with Inntravel for my next cycling holiday.
First day to Cap de Cavalleria spectacular with sea and sky colours and walk to Cala Pregonda well worth it from Binimel-la. Colourful and varied wild flowers everywhere. As fairly keen birdwatchers, S'Albufeira rather disappointing with few birds about at this time of year. Enjoyed return from Cales Caves with variety of roads and villages with much to see including many talaiots. Talati de Dalt the best site, but shut for two-hour lunch from 2.00; luckily we were there at 1.15 with time to explore, so check times to avoid disappointment.
