Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Just returned from a bespoke tour of the French Alps that was organised by John for our cycling team. It was epic! As a group, none of us had any experience riding big mountains and John tailored the route to suit us. We had a bucket list of climbs we wanted ticked off and John devised the route based on our abilities. The routes were meticulously planned and there was always an option to do more/less on each day based on your level of fatigue.
John's knowledge of the area meant that he didn't just stick to the well known climbs and was taking us along balcony roads and beautiful back roads that would have been missed had we stuck to the traditional tourist routes.
Everything was very well organised and you had a gpx file the night before to upload to your head unit. The support car was readily available for replenishment of bottles and other refreshments.
Not only can he ride a bike ridiculously well, he takes a great photo and I have literally hundreds of amazing pictures to help remember the trip.
We had bad weather one day and a route was improvised on the spot ensuring we had a great days cycling regardless.
If you are thinking of doing one of John's Tours then I would wholeheartedly recommend doing it. It's one of the best things I have ever done!

This was my first experience of an organised cycling trip and it was quite simply brilliant. We were a group of mixed ability and experience, and we all came away with grins on our faces (and aching legs!).

John is such an experienced and inspirational cyclist and guide, he was always encouraging us to push ourselves a little bit further than we perhaps thought possible in such a way that we ended each day feeling we'd accomplished a new high.

The structure of the tour was carefully planned, allowing us to build distance, elevation and grade of climb. The routes chosen were iconic, but John additionally provided local context and got us to explore some stunning scenery. He and Carolyn were also expert at recording the week, so we have literally hundreds of brilliant photos to remember the week by.

By the end of the week it felt like we'd known John and Carolyn for ages, and we've already started planning our next trip!

My 1 week on tour in the Dolomites & Alps with Alpine Cadence was a collision of challenging rides amongst beautiful scenery, incredible food and lots of it, great accomodation, and making new friends.
The itinerary was extremely well planned, rides were well communicated and supported, and allowed for varying fitness levels.
One needs to physically prepare for the sustained effort of 7 days full of world tour rides, however the reward for doing so is a week of accomplishment in amongst stunning scenery.
I’d happily recommend John’s tours to anyone and I look forward to doing another some day soon.

As the organiser of the tour to Italy to cycle the Dolomites and Alps, I can't speak highly enough of John and his team. 12 adult guys are tough to co-ordinate but John helped me navigate the organising well and once we arrived, he took over and delivered an unforgettable trip. 9 days of riding, 950km, over 20,000m climbing and while super challenging, it was beyond rewarding. Simon and Shak as support were the best... we were all like mates of 10 years by the end of the trip. John's hotel choices and the quality of meals exceeded expectation, and everyone agreed the value received was well worth the investment! Highly recommended!

If you are looking for a Cycling adventure, I could not recommend enough joining John at Alpine Cadence for one of his many Tour options. We did the Dolomites + Stelvio + Como tour and I must say it was wonderfully organised.

John and his team are very professional and the whole Tour ran seamlessly. The accommodation was well appointed, the hosts were great, the food was impeccable. We were well looked after and catered for in all aspects of the Tour.

This tour included so many famous climbs from the Giro D'Italia and many more. On a bike this was the perfect way to see this part of Italy where you can take in all the spectacular scenery, villages all the while still challenging yourself at the same time.

I can't wait to join John on another tour in the future!

Just completed the EXCELLENT Sardinian tour with Alpine Cadence. John puts so much effort to make the tour and every hour of the tour the best it can possibly be - fantastically varied landscapes and top notch climbs and descents. Such a great mix of accommodation - from farms to resort hotels. Legs a little bit tired but sure am fitter and stronger! Recommended.

I've done 5 tours with Alpine Cadence in 3 countries so far and every one of them has been amazing. Each one has been smoothly run, with excellent hotels and food, great guides on the road and great car support. John knows all the roads, all the options and you always know that he has things under control. Every time I finish a tour I start planning for the next. This year is no exception.
