About this trip

 Cycle Jamaica has been in operation since 2011 and now offers the perfect  combination of  cycling and an all-inclusive vacation.  Cycle Jamaica is  operated by One Love Multsports Ja., a Jamaica Tourist Board licensed tour operator. 


The ride is now part of an all-inclusive vacation package. Cyclists can come with their non cycling friends, families and spouse . Rides are usually finished before midday, so there is lots of time in the afternoon to have fun in the resort or go exploring with your non cycling companions.


For this trip there is a choice of two all inclusive resorts:
Grand Bahia Principe Jamaica

Luxury Bahia Principle

The hotels adjoin each other and both have ALL junior suites, exactly the same size for all  rooms but the balconies are larger for the seaview rooms. Our favortie category is Luxury seaview. The seaviews are well worth the extra price as its stunning day and night. 


Grand Bahia
caters to everyone including families and is an amazing resort. The lobby  is far larger and grander and all the shops adjoin the two lobbies.

Luxury Bahia is adults only and so its quieter and our favorite. Its a step up service wise. You are personally greeted with cold towels and enjoy a concierge service. Rooms have upgraded amenities, Bars have more selection and  the resort offers 24hour room service Included. 


Regardless of which resort you choose, if the hotel is full  it can sometimes be challenging to get into the specialty restaurants so  don't set your heart on it. The buffet dinner is really great and if you stay in Luxury you have the choice from two buffet restaurants. This resort offers excellent value for money. 


We will have FOUR pace level groups and we have two different distance levels as well .

Our stops are well planned so as to ensure everyone experiences the  real Jamaica: we may stop at local food  and fruit stalls or visit with simple local places. (currently restricted to only tourism approved covid-licensed locations0. Our ride routes are subject to change so please don't get geeky on us. Be flexible. These are difficult times and rules can change so we just keep flexible and adjust accordingly.


What is so very unique about our ride is the customized service provided by the guides and  the fact that this is an escorted ride so NO ONE IS EVER ALONE ON THE ROAD BY THEMSELVES ! Ever!  Our rides are group rides -we ride two abreast, peloton  style!. The ride caters to ALL pace levels and we keep each pace group together with the help of our pro cyclists who assist those who face challenges, to stay with their group.


After the ride you have the option to do sightseeing tours whether it be climbing  a 600ft waterfalls or watching your  body glow in luminescent waters, there is so much to  see and  do here.


The Jamaican people are warm and genuinely  friendly.  You'll get to meet them up close and in their real world!


There is time in the afternoons to meet up with fellow cyclists,  spouses and friends to explore the island's beaches, restaurants and  attractions or to take in a massage or visit a spa.



So come on, let's ride!

Let us show you why Jamaica is truly the "heartbeat" of the Caribbean

Had fun with my friends
By Quiana K for Cycle Jamaica Classic - April 11-15,2024- LUXURY BAHIA PRINCIPE on Jul 07, 2024
This was by far one of my best vacations! If you're considering this trip, consider no more, just book it! The Cycle Jamaica staff was so welcoming, accommodating, and just an absolute joy to experience. The rides were fun and most of all we made connections with other like minded awesome cyclists. Just do it, I promise you won't regret it!
By Myrtle S for Cycle Jamaica Classic - April 11-15,2024- LUXURY BAHIA PRINCIPE on Apr 27, 2024
A great way to spend a week cycling. Storm, Cycle Jamaica, is amazing. Her people are amazing. They really make life easy throughout the cycling experience.

This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. The cycle Jamaica team was A+ from beginning to end. The planning was impeccable and they executed it very well. The team was always willing to help. I met some amazing people on and off the bike. I can’t wait to go back and do it all over again.
