Do you wish to escape the hustle and bustle of the big city to cycle along quiet, country roads at your own pace?
If so, this tour was designed with you in mind! We invite you to explore the sights and sounds of the Loire River Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its bevy of romantic chateaux.
You’ll follow the Loire River and several of its beautiful tributaries, namely the Cher and the Indre. Along the way, you'll visit Villandry and its spectacular gardens, the magnificent floating castle of Azay-le-Rideau, and Chenonceau, the “castle of love.” All of them have played a role in the history of France, for varying reasons you’ll have to discover on your own! The short stages featured on this tour involve cycling over mostly flat terrain, so riders of all skill levels can comfortably experience the entrancing Loire Valley. Castles are the main draw, but it’s a perfect itinerary to visit prestigious vineyards, explore cave life and unwind in the countryside.

Catalonia, oh Catalonia! Words are barely adequate to describe this fantastically unique region. For much of this tour you will be exploring Catalonia’s Costa Brava on edge of the Mediterranean Sea. Thanks to its perfect location, you will be blessed with hot and dry weather, perfect for cycling. In fact, many of the top cyclists in the world choose to call Catalonia home because of the great weather and even better cycling terrain.
Aside from the varied landscapes, you’ll discover the historically diverse city of Girona, the beaches of Roses, and the peculiar birthplace of Salvador Dali, to name a few cultural hotspots. Seeing Catalonia from the seat of your bike is truly the experience of a lifetime!
Although this is not a very difficult tour, we recommend this tour to cyclists who ride on a regular basis and can comfortably ride 70 km (45 miles).

If you are dreaming of discovering the lush, green countryside of the Piedmont region, riding past rivers, hills, vineyards and lakes then look no further!
The tour sees you ride between two Italian capitals. Beginning in the elegant city of Turin, which today is capital of the Piedmont region, but during medieval times was the capital of the Duchy of Savoy and even the Kingdom of Italy, and ends in Milan, the glamorous Italian capital of business and fashion.
Along the way you will ride through the Piedmont and Lombardy regions, pedaling past rivers, verdant hills and the azure-coloured lakes of Viverone, Orta and Maggiore. A few notable highlights from the trip include stays in Gattinara, a village reknowned for its wine bars, where you will be able to taste exquisite wines, and in Pavia, an ancient medieval capital and refined university city from where you can discover the Certosa, a splendid monastery dating from the fourteenth century.
And what better way to finish your day in the saddle than by enjoying some of the region’s local specialities? Perhaps veal agnolotti, or a taste of the famed white truffle of Alba, paired with a glass of Barolo or Barbaresco.

Wake up in the beautiful city of Bordeaux, a European capital of culture renowned for music, architecture, and of course, wine!
Our Médoc itinerary leads you north of the city into the Médoc Peninsula, a flat, vineyard-covered landscape resting between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gironde Estuary. The Médoc’s oceanside setting would make for poor grape-growing; luckily for the world, the region’s particular terroir is magnificent, and nearly all of Bordeaux’s prized appellations are made here.
Your route isn’t all about wine, however! Enjoy flat, traffic-free roads through stretches of countryside, charming villages, lakes, forests, and quaint port towns of the Gironde.

Nestled in a small corner of northern France, the Gulf of Morbihan is a little slice of paradise.
Less crowded than the shores of the Mediterranean to the south and brimming with their own Breton charm, the small islands and towns of this ‘little sea’ provide the perfect backdrop for a leisurely yet active holiday.
Alternating between boat and bike, this week-long tour around the gulf introduces riders to the amazing heritage of the area -- from the prehistoric menhirs of Carnac and Dolmen de Pen Hap to the seagoing culture in port towns like Auray and Arzon. Highlights include island-hopping to the Ile-d’Arz and Ile-aux-Moines, where fishermen’s cottages, sandy beaches, and fresh oysters are just a few of the delights to discover. With short daily rides and minimal climbing along quiet, often traffic-free roads, this tour offers a taste of Brittany at an island pace.

If Mediterranean sunshine and flavorful cuisine are what you crave, Italy is the obvious destination choice.
Not so visible are the cities of the southeastern peninsula, in Apulia (Puglia in Italian) —Sassi di Matera, Alberobello, Lecce, Otranto and Gallipoli — that are off the beaten tourist track (for now!) One of Italy’s best-kept secrets, Apulia is home to an incredible mix of natural beauty and historic relics, plus two UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Cyclists in Apulia enjoy virtually traffic-free country roads over mostly flat terrain, some of which follow the coastline while others cover the lush inland plateaus. Whether you want to stop for a swim, enjoy a coffee in the piazza, or visit every castle, church, and museum is up to you!
If your time constraints don't allow you to spend a whole week visiting the Apulia region, keep in mind that we also offer a 3 night/4 day trip from Bari to Brindisi.

In the backyard of Catalonia's famed Costa Brava lies the Empordà plain, a gorgeous region boasting a rich agricultural as well as a cultural heritage dating back to prehistory.
Great eras have brought a diverse array of people here, from the Iberians through the Greeks and Romans and medieval times, each leaving their distinct mark on the landscape and lifestyle.
On this tour, you will begin and end in the medieval town of Torroella de Montgri. In between, the route takes you along quiet countryside fields to lively seaside paths, as you cross through Empordà natural parks, charming coastal towns, and picturesque medieval villages. The plain unfolds as you pedal, revealing wonders that include the ancient ruins of Empuries, Pals and its rice fields, the region's capital at La Bisbal d'Empordà, and the stunning beaches of Sant Pere Pescador. Explore it all at your own pace.

While larger Mediterranean cities and celebrity hot spots may get lots of hype, the glistening azure coastline and rainbow-hued houses of Cassis are no less eye-popping.
This quiet seaside town remains a working fishing port, which makes it all the more appealing to us as the highlight of our tour — we like quiet, character-filled places that haven’t surrendered to time or progress or the pressure of hectic modern lives!
The route to Cassis is truly as blissful as the destination. Imagine riding by a mountain cloaked in holy legend (Sainte Baume), past the sunny yellow buildings of Aix-en-Provence, through scenes captured so beautifully by Cézanne (Mont Saint-Victoire), and Van Gogh during his most productive years (the Alpilles).
Consider this our official warning: many unsuspecting cyclists and would-be artists have come to explore this glorious region and wound up quitting their day jobs, packing up their lives, and buying a fixer-upper farmhouse or seaside cottage. After a week of riding here, you may be compelled to follow suit!

This is an abridged version of one of our most loved tours and makes the perfect weekend escape.
If you want to explore the Alps by bike without the hills and enjoy the magnificent Lake Bourget and Lake Annecy then this unique tour is the perfect two-day trip for you. The route stretches alongside both lakes and essentially follows river paths along the Isère so you can enjoy the sights of the towering mountains, without having to climb them! Along the way the ride takes in historic villages, stunning natural scenery, lush meadows and valleys as well as picturesque peaks.
The tour begins in Culoz on the northern tip of Lake Bourget and heads out along the banks of the lake towards Aix-les-Bains. After a memorable overnight stay in the quite simply magical Château des Allues the route then heads north and continues alongside the stunning Lake Annecy before arriving into Annecy itself, nicknamed the ‘Venice of the Alps’.
Don’t forget to pack your swimsuit for a quick dip in Lake Annecy before heading home!

Explore the beautiful northern coast of Brittany! Located in France's northwest corner, this oft-overlooked area with its rural inland roads and craggy, wave-sculpted coastline is ideally suited for bike touring.
This 7-day tour begins and finishes in the historical town of Guingamp. In between, you’ll tour Brittany’s famed pink granite coast, enjoying some of its most popular seaside villages (Tréguier, Perros-Guirec and Ploumanac’h) as well as many of its geological wonders: Sillon de Talbert, Pointe du Château, and Les Septs Îles (the Seven Islands).
You’ll also spend time inland, riding through pastoral settings ornamented with tiny villages steeped in Old World ambience. When not riding, you’ll be eating, savoring Brittany’s culinary specialties: crèpes, seafood, cheeses and cider, the region’s main drink of choice.
