Planning a trip cycling from Amsterdam to Gothenburg (and maybe back?) next year.
I am not a cycling nut, the idea behind the trip is to cycle on a fairly casual basis, stop of at places we find interesting (trip will already be taking us through nice countryside, Scandi coast, as well as Hamburg and Copenhagen), probably take a decent amount of hash with us from the Dam and sample some night life and such in various places, rather than waking up at Sparrow fart, donning Lycra and sucking on lemon gels all day.
Has anyone here done anything like this before? Any comments would be appreciated.

Was in the Algarve with the missus last year and it was great - Where is similar to the Algarve? Cyprus is an obvious one.
Basically wanting great beaches, 28-38 degrees, few things to do and good food.

Puglia Kev.
Ulster, wouldn't recommend Monterey either. Carmel much better. On the way down from SF, didn't like Santa Cruz but had a good time in Half Moon Bay. Nice brewery on the sea

Has anyone ever done a safari in South Africa? Really fancy seeing Cape Town and combining it with a few days safari, but not sure where to start.
Is it the type of holiday where you can book everything separately yourself, or should I just be biting the bullet and stumping up £££ for a travel agent package?

I did it in March, you deffo need a flight up to joburg. That drive would be a killer otherwise.
We did a week and split it between these places in Kruger, all great. Saw the big 5 at the first gaff.
