Australasia
- Australia – To do it all you’d need a year or more. How about focusing on the best bits? More…
- New Zealand – It’s small but packed with things to see and do. Just watch that weather. More…
******
Central Asia – This is for the adventurous cyclist. Think rough roads, few tourists and wild camping paradise.
- Kazakhstan – The biggest of the Central Asian states, this is a relatively flat route between Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan with a few highlights along the way. More…
- Kyrgyzstan – Some of the most beautiful cycling that Central Asia has to offer. Camp with nomads. Soak in the mountain views. Wash up in a traditional bathhouse.More…
- Turkmenistan – It’s run by a government with an iron fist but if you can move quickly (you only get a 5-day visa) this is one option for going between Iran and Uzbekistan without taking a ferry across the Caspian Sea.More…
- Uzbekistan – You can’t miss the gorgeous silk road cities of Bukhara and Samarqand. What you could do without are the registration hassles. More…
******
Europe – Great food, diverse cultures and comfort if you want it but plenty of camping opportunities if you don’t. Europe is home to some of the greatest cycling nations on earth. More…

- Slovenia – Gorgeous scenery and so many English speakers! More…
- Spain – Drink sherry and have lunch on the beach. More…
******
Middle East – It’s not nearly as scary as you think. In fact, the hospitality here outstrips anywhere else we’ve been. Drink a cup of tea with the locals and enjoy. More…
- Iran Undoubtedly our favourite country so far. You can’t beat the kind people, the hospitality, the landscapes and the history. More…
- Morocco – Geographically it’s not in the Middle East but culturally it is and what a culture to explore with souks, forts, palaces, deserts and nomads. More…
- Syria – Bike to some of the world’s oldest cities and camp amongst ruins and olive groves. And despite what they say, you can get a visa at the border.More…
- Turkey – A great introduction to the Middle East with its mix of Eastern and Western culture, plus incredible interior landscapes and high mountains in the far east. More…
******
North America – For sheer diversity of landscape on one continent, this is hard to beat. And there’s no shortage of space to get lost in. More…
- Canada – The ‘great white north’ offers mountains, prairies and seascapes but not so many roads. More…
- United States – From north to south, you can cycle here year-round. Just watch the bureaucracy if you’re coming for a long time! More…
******
Southeast Asia – A nice taste of the exotic, mixed with plenty of home comforts if you want them. More…
- Cambodia – Relatively poor, with fewer facilities than other nations in the region, but some stunning ruins and friendly people. More…
- Laos – Flat plains of rice fields in the south and misty mountains in the north. It’s a cyclist’s dream. More…
- Malaysia – Bustling cities, spicy curries, cool tea plantations and a mix of cultures not seen in nearby Thailand. More…
- Singapore – This tiny nation is a key hub for getting in and out of Southeast Asia. More…
- Thailand – It’s hard not to love Thailand and on a bike you can get away from the well-beaten tourist trail. More…

Singapore is truly exciting for its multilayered social tapestry! From Chinatown to Little India and everything in between, there’s so much to experience as well as uncover here – its vibrant shades and also rich history makes every edge an interesting journey – foodies should certainly go to! If that is something that talks with you also after that Singapore need to not be missed as your next traveling location! Hawker Centres in Singapore provide an amazing variety of local recipes. Do not miss out on attempting Hainanese Chicken Rice or Chili Crab! Gardens by the Bay were breathtaking – I particularly admired Supertree Grove and also Cloud Forest – they really took my breath away! The light show during the night was genuinely enchanting and also an outright must-see! Singapore provided such an extraordinary blend of advanced design as well as rich plant life – from Marina Bay Sands to Henderson Waves this city is really outstanding to uncover! Singapore’s public transportation is impressive! From its reliable metro train system and easy traveling with an EZ-Link card to Sentosa Island for leisure – which flaunts Universal Studios, S.E.A Aquariums, and a lot more destinations! – their public transportation has established new requirements. Aquarium, lovely coastlines, as well as other home entertainment for the entire family make Singapore an outstanding means to invest a day. Do not miss Singapore’s ArtScience Museum which integrates art, scientific research, and technology in an outstanding combination! Experiences at The Gardens By the Bay were absolutely magical; with interactive exhibits and fascinating screens producing an unforgettable journey – certainly worth a go to! I was absolutely shocked at Singapore’s incredible buying scene! From luxury shopping centers such as ION Orchard to Bugis Road’s lively markets there really is something below for any shopaholic to experience! Make certain to leave some area in your luggage! I found Singapore Zoo one of the finest zoos I’ve seen; it’s open-concept enclosures and also immersive habitats created a real wild animals experience, not failing to remember Evening Safari for included enjoyment! Singapore’s multiculturalism is an additional drawcard; Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Western impacts can be seen all over from design to food; producing a remarkable fusion!
