It is here that you will uncover the cycling holiday of a lifetime. Cycle through the imperial forest of Fontainebleau--the old private hunting grounds for French royalty--and explore the many villages that you will happen upon during your journey.

Be wowed by the Chateau de Courances – a still inhabited 17th-century castle. Enjoy the cycle paths of the vast forest of Rambouillet; you might even see one of the red deer, the symbol of the forest. Finish your tour at the awe-inspiring Palace of Versailles with its renowned Hall of Mirrors and impressive grounds.

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.

This week-long bike tour on Portugal’s west coast weaves a tale of two cities -- and all the seaside villages, natural landscapes, and cultural heritage in between!

The itinerary starts in Porto, a vibrant urban centre on the Douro River, famous for its historic districts and monuments, as well as its production of Port Wine. At the other end of the route lies venerable Coimbra, with its 13th-century university, and fantastic collection of churches, monasteries, and cultural institutions. Both cities have a charming character that is both historic and modern, where you can enjoy a sangria on a riverside terrace after a day of wandering among treasured relics of eras past.

Along the way, you’ll follow quiet roads and cycle paths through pine woods, along lagoons and sand dunes, and explore the lovely towns and beaches that line Portugal’s renowned “Silver Coast”. Tour the canals of Aveiro in a traditional Moliceiro boat, go bird-watching in the Natural Reserve of the Sao Jacinto Dunes, and experience the charms of coastal life in Mira and Figueira da Foz. Dine daily on fresh fish and other local specialties, and let yourself dream about never having to leave this idyllic corner of the world...

Our colorful itinerary takes you to the world’s most exceptional vineyards, from those producing varying shades of Burgundian red wines to the Charolais white! Travel through a palette of colors as varied and diverse as the remarkable tiled roofs that top the Hospices de Beaune. Each stop on your cycling tour adds to the mosaic of exceptional medieval sites scattered around Burgundy.

If the scenery draws out your inner artist, the local gastronomy and wines will turn you into a food critic! Delve into the hearty local cuisine, typically featuring Burgundian wine sauces, and discover which wines please your palate.

Perhaps our most popular cycling tour in Provence, The Arles Countryside is an itinerary designed to thrill. We know the very best way to be dazzled by Provence is to experience it on the seat of a bicycle, where nothing comes between you and the warm breeze blowing intoxicating aromas in your direction. If you think the charms of Provence are too good to be true, this tour will change your mind!

Be prepared to cycle uphill, downhill, and even back in time. The Alpilles region, with its cypresses and olive trees, may remind you of Greece, while the well-preserved Pont-du-Gard and the Arles Theater will take you back to ancient Roman times.

At your own pace, stop to visit abbeys, castles, gardens, vineyards, and whatever sites your heart desires. Further discover Provençal heritage at local caf√©s, markets, shops and museums. Prefer to admire buildings from the outside? You don’t have to stop until you reach your charming accommodations for the night.

This popular bicycle tour allows you to explore Normandy in all its glory. Beginning in Bayeux and ending in Rouen, you’ll bicycle through the countryside that gave rise to Impressionist painting and inspired the brushstrokes of Monet and Boudin.

You’ll wheel along Normandy’s coast and visit some of D-Day’s most prominent battle sites, including Omaha Beach, Pegasus Bridge and Longues-sur-Mer, site of one of Germany’s most formidable defense placements. You’ll also visit ancient cathedrals and stand before the place where Joan of Arc met her death. And at night, you’ll lodge in charming cities and villages, enjoying Normandy’s best culinary offerings.

Most days come with ride options, allowing you to choose between longer and shorter routes. This bicycle tour is great for riders and history buffs alike, suitable for all riding levels.

If you’re an elite rider, you may consider our more challenging version of this bicycle tour, which contains longer daily stages. The itinerary is the same, but the rides are longer.

believe us, you will be mesmerized by the scenery! From the banks of Lake Geneva and Lake Annecy, stunning panoramas from the tops of these challenging climbs, and beautiful Alpine towns and villages along the way, this tour has everything a serious cyclist could want!

The route includes many legendary Tour de France climbs such as the Col de la Biche, Col du Grand Colombier, Montée du Semnoz, Col de la Croix Fry, Col des Aravis, Col de Joux-Plan. Some of these climbs are optional and can be included on your route, and some are unavoidable!

We have also planned the route to be as flexible as possible, so riders who are short on time can also begin riding from Seyssel and Annecy, or ride directly from Geneva to Annecy.

Embrace the wonderful colors and perfume-like scents of Provence's favorite fragrant bloom on a tour through the region's favorite lavender fields. Our itinerary is a celebration of lavender in all its forms, whether cultivated by locals or growing wild in the fields, in soaps and oils or even in edible treats.

Located between the Alps and Provence, our Lavender Route highlights both regions. With an exceptional Mediterranean climate, it is very typical for the region to receive about 300 days of sun per year. The true draw of this region, however, is the unmistakable and calming aroma of endless lavender fields combined with pure Alpine-fresh mountain air — an invigorating fragrance for an active holiday with a relaxing feel.

Riding through contrasting landscapes, you’ll pass the Gorges of Verdon (France’s “Grand Canyon”), climb to the hilltop village of Valensole and its spectacular lavender-covered plateau, and meander through hills and valleys bordering the Luberon. You’ll visit places steeped in history and tradition, such as Moustiers-Sainte-Marie (famous for its Faïence pottery), the medieval citadel of Manosque, as well as the spa towns of Digne-les-Bains and Gréoux-les-Bains. (Bains, if you couldn’t tell, means “baths” — as in thermal baths!)

This is an extraordinary tour that’s best enjoyed by those who bike regularly. The terrain involves some hills and climbs, but the payoff is more than worth it. Once immersed in this charming landscape, you will have no difficulty understanding why Alain Ducasse and fellow prestigious chefs have found their culinary inspiration in this region. It’s hard not to be captivated by the variety of local produce and specialties: truffles, olive oil, honey, rosemary, thyme, and, of course, lavender.

This trip is the only one that truly focuses on lavender. We do have other bike trips that will take you through other lavender-growing areas... but you won't see (and smell) as much lavender.

Peak lavender season is in July.

We invite you to discover the battleground where attacks have been waged, battles have been won, and wars have been lost! This is the epic terrain which has determined Tour de France champions.

The mountain passes in this area are among the toughest you can find in the French Alps. They provide numerous opportunities to test your climbing limits and admire the spectacular alpine landscapes.
