Our Journey

From a Somerset kitchen
to 12 countries

2003

Where it all began

Adventure Café was founded in a Somerset kitchen by two friends who wanted to make guided cycling adventures accessible to everyone — not just elite athletes. The first event was London to Paris with 12 riders.

2008

Charity partnerships take off

We started running bespoke charity fundraising events, working with NHS charities, hospices, and cancer research organisations. By 2010 we'd raised over £1 million for good causes.

2014

Corporate team challenges launch

FTSE 100 companies started approaching us to design bespoke corporate team challenges. We expanded into trekking and ran our first Everest Base Camp expedition.

2026

500+ events and counting

Twenty years on, we've delivered over 500 events across 12 countries, raised more than £4 million for charity, and maintained a perfect 5.0 Google rating. The kitchen table is a bit bigger now.

Why Choose Us

What Makes Us Different

20+ Years of Expertise

Over two decades of planning and delivering challenge events means we've encountered — and solved — every possible scenario. You benefit from all of that hard-won knowledge.

Fully Tailored Events

No two groups are the same. We build every event around your team's fitness levels, goals, and budget. From 10 to 500 participants — and everything in between.

Expert Guides & Full Support

Our guides have completed every route they lead. Full mechanical and medical support vehicles accompany every trip, so participants feel safe and supported from start to finish.

Beginner Friendly

We design every route to be achievable for people who don't consider themselves sporty. With our training plans, support crew, and gradual pacing, first-timers regularly complete things they never thought possible.

Hassle-Free Logistics

We handle every detail — accommodation, luggage transfers, meals, permits, kit, and post-event reports. You and your team just show up and ride.

5-Star Track Record

Over 200 Google reviews averaging 5.0 stars. We don't just aim to meet expectations — our goal is for every participant to finish wishing the event was longer.

Trusted by leading businesses and organisations
