Designed for serious cyclists, this tour links three of Europe's most beautiful lakes: Geneva, Bourget and Annecy
Follow in the tracks of your Tour de France heroes as you cycle thrilling mountain passes, take in stunning panoramas and pass through picturesque Alpine villages.
Replenish your energy with some regional specialities — such as the famous Beaufort cheese and Chartreuse, the intensely aromatic liqueur made by monks high up in the mountains — before exploring the many historic churches, museums and monuments you'll encounter on the way.
The tour also takes you into the heart of the Savoy wine region, through notable wine-growing villages such as Apremont, Abymes and Chignin, famed for light, crisp whites that carry the delicate scent of Alpine flowers.
