Might be worth looking into offering a couple different levels, again depending on your demographics.
I thought the OP was pretty clear, "travel company.. offering cycling tours".. but I think she might have been better off posting in the Road Cycling forum. So yes, I think it's pretty certain she's talking about what you describe in your second paragraph. Eg. stuff like this: https://www.backroads.com/award-winning-tours/biking
The Touring forum.. while it may be supposed to cover this topic, is mostly all about self-supported riding (racks, poop shovels, sleeping bags, panniers seem to be the primary topics).
