Stories from the island
Uli and Stefan write here about routes, wines and villages, and your voices from the road stand right next to them.
Dear Uli, dear Stefan, this is the fourth time we have been out with you, and there will be a fifth. The accommodation in Artà at the Santa Fe with Nadine is beautiful, which after a day of riding matters a great deal too. Your route suggestions with the GPS data are terrific. There is always something new to …
You organised an unforgettable cycling holiday for us on Mallorca along the gravel routes. We stayed in nice small hotels and villages, sometimes right in the middle of nowhere. In one week we rode 380 km through rural country, small villages, along the coast and in the mountains, with ups and downs. Everything was …
We booked a cycling trip right across the island with Stefan and Uli, and it was simply perfect from start to finish. The transfer worked without a hitch, the route planning was first class and the petit hotels they had chosen were truly enchanting. You can tell that the work here is done with a lot of heart and a lot …
“We are repeat offenders …”, but why? For one thing, we like the nature on Mallorca a great deal, and we got more than enough of it on the routes Stefan and Uli had picked out so carefully. The tours are perfectly manageable for anyone, changes and short cuts are always possible, and the pick-up and drop-off service …
A cycling holiday on Mallorca has been almost a ritual for us for many, many years, with Rad und Finca among others. In Uli and Stefan we have got to know two wonderful people. Quite apart from how lovely the tours are, whether the sternfahrt or the PetitHotel Tour, they are all wonderful routes, mostly well away from …
That was a terrific tour; it felt as though we got to see every corner of the island, with plenty of side roads away from the traffic. The hotels always small and full of character. Stefan and Uli are always reachable and, in an emergency (a flat tyre in our case), there to help within 30 minutes. Everything was …
We were the last guests in June before the heatwave and we enjoyed every minute. The petit hotels were uniquely beautiful and the service fantastic. The suggested routes held plenty of surprises we had not expected either. To sum up, all we can say is: a wonderful holiday. If we ever come back to Mallorca, it will be with Rad und Finca.

What guests say after the trip
Real voices, real tours, and anyone who has already travelled with us rates their week right here.
We are repeat offenders, but why? For one thing, we like the nature on Mallorca a great deal, and we got more than enough of it on the routes Stefan and Uli had picked out so carefully. The tours are perfectly manageable for anyone, changes and short cuts are always possible, and the pick-up and drop-off service is faultless. And then there is the little town of Artà, which is simply wonderful. We can warmly recommend the Santa Fe as a place to stay too. The warmth and friendliness here are genuine. We liked it so much that we are coming back next year.
Even before the holiday began we were welcomed by Uli and Stefan on WhatsApp. The contact was very warm from the start and we felt well looked after the whole time. When we arrived at the Villa Barcella, our hired e-bikes were already standing ready. All along the routes the two of them had stuck up direction arrows. Even being picked up early on one tour was no trouble at all: we sent our location on WhatsApp and Stefan came and collected us. For us it was a wonderful week in a completely relaxed setting.
That was when the first doubts crept in: am I really going to have to ride alone and find the route each time? The programme was loops of between 36 and 70 km, but always with varied stops along the way that the Rad und Finca organisers had chosen with a great deal of sensitivity. Everything was perfectly organised and included in the package price. After 6 stages with nearly 200 km in my legs (I know, others manage that in a day) and many entertaining hours on the bike, this week was exactly the right thing for me.
