We believe in enhancing the pleasurable experience of cycling by combining it with other fun activities such as visiting wineries for wine-tasting, gastronomy, or visiting castles and other heritage sites.

We currently have a small selection of the best cycling and Wine tours in France and other locations in Europe. Although wine production is now a global industry and is appreciated worldwide, countries such as France, Italy, and Spain represent the heart and the origin of the culture of wine. You can appreciate the beautiful countryside, often warm and sunny weather and discover historic wine chateau’s that are often centuries old and have the opportunity to taste the best vintages offered by experts, after a relaxing day’s cycling to perfectly round off your day followed by a meal chosen from a selection in the rich local culinary tradition. 

Other regions, such as the Dordogne in France, offer spectacular views across the winding river with a castle sometimes on every hilltop and have a rich gastronomic tradition.

Every level of cyclist can be catered for, especially through the use of e-bikes – provided by us – that take the effort out of the climbs where they occur.

The particular tour for any given dates will be adjusted to one of several rider levels and expectations:

• Leisure – This ride is easy road riding on quiet roads with few hills, typically covering no more than 40km per day.
• Moderate – Mainly road on quiet routes with some hills, at a moderate pace, up to 80km per day
• Advanced – Although not aimed at expert cyclists, this is a combination of on and off-road with some hills and technical challenges. Up to 100km per day

See here for a detailed description of ride levels and rider ability.

Current tours span three to five days and will start at a central location and riding out on different routes each day, returning for an evening meal and other activities. Several cycling routes are offered and vary according to the dates or can be chosen in our made-to-measure tours. Click on one of the above options.
