About us

Olympic Bike, your specialists for the active mountain bike holiday in Rethymnon, Crete was established in the late 1980’s. We will actively show you the most beautiful MTB regions, an environment which emphasizes the company’s “green” approach to cycle-tourism. We stimulate and support mountain biking that is environmentally and socially responsible. Sporty or in a more relaxed fashion, always perfectly organized and with a quality service which will guarantee you a MTB holiday of a life time.

Olympic Bike has been equipped with exclusive top-of-the-line SCOTT Sports MTB bikes, which you can use for mountain bike tours or MTB bike rental, while the Park Tool workshop offers the necessary mountain bike maintenance services. Furthermore we are a Shimano Service Area specialist; and are member of the I.M.B.A., the International Mountain Bicycling Association!

Since 2004 we also work very closely with the Leonardo Da Vinci project which is being run by EURES, a European Community program from Brussels, Belgium, where we train and educate young people in order to prepare them for the job market later on in their lives.

Our principle has always been get local and mingle with the natives. There is simply no better way to really see a place and to get to know it than from an insider’s point of view. Guidebooks are often out of date and can not give you the new, local “secrets”. We develop our MTB trips based on this philosophy: We are the locals. We live and work in the areas where we mountain bike. We want to share the MTB knowledge and passion we have of our mountain bike island and open it up for you to discover … After all, discovery is one of life’s truly rewarding experiences.
