Day One — 30 km (easy, 1.6 km equals 1 mile)

A 9 am pick up will have you in our van and quickly outbound from Halifax to Mill River, P.E.I. and the start of the tour. Once in Mill River, we’ll adjust your bikes, and you’ll soon be off on a peaceful afternoon jaunt. This lovely ride will be a harbinger of delight, and the the start of a glorious week touring a gentle countryside that will touch your heart often. We’ll arrive at our inn early, and you’ll have ample opportunity to settle in before the welcome dinner.

Day Two — 80 km (easy to moderate)

Today’s bicycle ride flows along the rolling farmlands and picturesque fishing villages of Prince Edward Island’s North Cape Coastal drive, home to some of the island’s largest potato farms. The humble potato loves the island’s rich, red clay soil, so you’ll see verdant potato farms everywhere. But, keep an eye out for oyster fishermen and women working their nets in the island rivers. Prince Edward Island may be the smallest province in the world’s second largest country, but its bounty from land and sea is both famous and prized throughout the culinary world, from New York to Tokyo.

Day Three — 59 km (easy to moderate)

After a wonderful breakfast, you’ll head north out of Summerside towards Malpeque Bay and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The blue slate of water will be punctuated with colourful fishing boats being manned by those busy catching your dinner for the evening. Our destination is Cavendish — a humble hamlet of less than 100 souls — that inspires pilgrimages throughout the world, especially among the Japanese, because it's the home of Lucy Maud Montgomery and her famous red-haired heroine, Anne of Green Gables. After your ride, a swim is in order: The beaches here are washed by the Gulf Stream, and the water is refreshing. Another delicious dinner will be your reward for the day’s pedal.

Day Four — 46 km (easy)

Today’s gentle spin takes you into P.E.I. National Park, and you'll soon be riding along the fabulous red sand cliffs of Orby Head and Cape Turner — a lovely ride! You’ll have time to take some photos as we move on toward North Rustico and then Dalvay Beach, your home for the night.

Day Five — Dalvay Loop Ride - 37.3 km (easy)

Today’s ride is purposefully short, so you can spend the afternoon at Dalvay, just a hop, skip and jump from your inn. Locals will tell you this is one of Eastern Canada’s best beaches.

Day Six — 50 km (easy)

Our ride today will take us to St. Peters Bay. Part of the journey can be along the secluded Confederation Trail, where the only traffic you might encounter might be a long-legged heron or an inquisitive squirrel or otter
