What travelers are saying

"Our family of four, including two adult children, took the Bicycling: Day Trips to Paradise in Canada. This trip is entirely outsourced to the owners of the inn, there are no Road Scholar employees involved in the trip. Two of us have taken bicycle trips all over the world and the bicycling component of this trip was disorganized, haphazard and almost unsafe. We all filled out forms giving details regarding our bicycle fitting months before the trip. On the first day, the leader Stephen, went around the room and asked the same questions and said everyone would get fitted in the morning before we began the first ride. The morning brought a rack of bikes, all different types in various levels of readiness. There were road bikes, hybrid bikes, mountain bikes and e-bikes. The rides were all on paved surfaces and the mountain bikes were heavy and the additional suspension added weight. The bike I received had rust on the chain and rear sprocket. When I asked about it, was told they were waiting for another van to show up with tools and equipment. Once it arrived, they gave me the lubricant to spray on the rust. My wife’s bike would not shift into the high gear on the front sprocket. Instead of adjusting the derailleur, they suggested spraying it with lubricant. Our one son is over six feet and needed a larger frame bike, even though he detailed it in the bike form months ago, there was no bike to fit him. One of the guides, then went home and brought a larger bike that was a full suspension mountain bike for him. The bike was very heavy, hard to control on the road and he felt unsafe. After two days, one of the guides convinced Stephen that they could adjust a hybrid bike to fit him. Clearly there was no work done to prepare the bikes for the trip. Many of the bikes needed adjusting and all needed lubricant to function easily. For every day, there was a tray of snacks placed out for us to take along the ride. None of the bikes had any baskets or attached bags, so if you didn’t bring a small day pack, there was no way to carry the snacks. For lunch on the rides, they brought exactly one sandwich for each rider. Since most of us get hungry while doing a day of exercise, it would have been helpful to have a few extras. On one day, they ran out of sandwiches and one of the leaders that were riding with us did not get lunch. Do NOT take this trip if you are expecting it to be a bicycling trip. We have used VBT and Discovery Bicycle Tours many times over the past 25 years and they are excellent bike tour companies. Lastly, after sharing these details with Road Scholar after the trip, their response was weak at best. After doing the full reviews and having to call them, their response was to give us $200 credit after spending $8000 on this trip. Not only was that insulting, they assumed that I would take another trip with their organization."

"My daughter had a phenomenal time at the Ocean Odyssey Camp. She loved the sea turtle rehab, aquarium, surfing, and the nightly activities. This was her first overnight camp, but the staff was wonderful and she never missed home! Seeing the daily pics on FB also helped this first time camp mama survive the week. She absolutely adored Katie and Izzy. She is ready to call me back next year. Thank you for an awesome experience!"

Surfing Tour Selection Trips

  • From Australia to Uruguay, surfing is a great way to explore new places and travel the world. Research into the conditions for different countries as these can vary significantly. 
  • Surf conditions vary a lot depending on season, which can have a different impact on the waves in different places. In some destinations there will be very few waves out of season, whereas in others, out of season will be better for beginners with less large waves.
  • Learning to surf can take time, and for many it takes longer than a few days to get the hang of it. If you’re ready to seriously improve, consider booking for longer than a week.
  • Amounts of surfing time or lessons included vary dramatically from trip to trip. Check for your trip if you surf once a day, twice a day, or if you can grab a board anytime.  
  • Yoga can be a great way to relax those aching muscles post surf---check if there are any yoga sessions included in your tour. 
  • One of the best advantages of surf camps is that they’ll know the best spots to take you for your level and have all the experience in finding the best waves!
  • Some camps cater for those who have more experienced - ask ahead of time if they provide lessons for groups with different levels of experience or ability.
  • Surfing in colder water will require full wetsuits while in the tropics a rash-vest is usually sufficient. Surf camps usually provide these.
