About Xplore Britain
In 2007 Richard Morris set up “Xplore Britain Cycling”, operating as a sole trader business in the United Kingdom. Xplore Britain offers independent self-guided cycling and mountain biking tours and holidays in England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales. While we have many suggested itineraries, we specialize in tailoring any of our tours and holidays to suit your requirements, including adjusting the number of days, the mileage cycled, the routes chosen and the accommodation category. We work as quickly and efficiently as possible to make the booking experience as pleasurable as the holidays themselves. If you want something slightly different than what we show on the website, we CAN offer it. We aim to make your dream holiday a reality.

Anne Kennedy – Experience Consultant
In 2015 Anne and her husband Dave did their first of what would be several self-guided cycle tours in the UK. After meeting Richard and enjoying her first tour with Xplore Britain in May 2018 she reached out with an offer to provide voluntary assistance. Since then she has helped with website updates, document preparations, and working directly with clients' assistance. She has also continued extensive touring with Xplore Britain, 3 weeks in 2018 and 8 weeks on two separate tours in 2019. Due to Covid restrictions plans for 2020 were curtailed but she returned for another 3+ weeks in September 2021. Anne is particularly interested in working with clients who reside in North America, helping them plan their own bespoke tour. Anne lives in Vancouver, BC, Canada and when she isn’t planning her own future cycle trips she enjoys an active retired lifestyle including cycling, walking and playing pickleball.
