Activity level

For our tours we have created description of activity which can be categorized in 4 different activity levels. We hope this will help you to choose a tour with a level of activity you are comfortable with. We are all unique or let’s say different. Based on this, most of Meridien Ten tours have additional options for your daily activity.  Support van and e-bikes on bike tours can do miracles when there is a group with various activity preferences. For those looking for more activity our guides (or roadbooks on self guided tours) will have suggestions and additional options. Ability to be flexible is important part of our itineraries.
