Cycle Tours - why choose us

So you have booked your holiday and travelled to our region of France. During your stay you want to ensure you take in the major cols and local landmarks, plus, some of those secret hidden gems that will surprise you. These can be just as great an experience as the historical climbs from the 'Tour de France.'

We regularly hear conversations like this:
'we have been here a week and still only touched the surface of what is on offer'

There is just so much 'parcours' to try and fit into your holiday. It's our role to try and help you experience as much as you can and quite possibly a little bit more than you anticipated.

Many of our visitors are in groups of mixed ability:
'there is always a couple of cyclists who have spent the last 6 months on a dedicated training plan, on the other hand their friend is with them who hasn't been on a bike for weeks and done no pre-travel prep whatsoever.'
We relish this challenge, we can help plan your itinerary to ensure it meets the ability and expectations for everyone.
