France bike tours

Discover France, a country synonymous with cycling, and not just because of the Tour de France!

The country’s diverse regions, from the opulent châteaux of the Loire Valley to the fragrant lavender fields of Provence, the flourishing vineyards of Burgundy to the awesome French Alps, make it one of Europe’s favorite travel destinations. The inexhaustible variety of culture, natural beauty, and ideal biking landscapes to uncover makes France one our travelers’ favorite locations.

  • What makes France a great destination for a bike tour?

    On a bike tour of France, you’ll discover an enthralling depth of culture and history, from the decadent royal history of the Palace of Versailles to the towering Mont Saint-Michel, the sobering sands of Normandy’s D-Day beaches to the incredible fortress of Carcassonne. Whether you opt for a bike tour or a bike and boat trip, you’ll uncover the phenomenal highlights of France, the most visited country in the world.

  • When is the best time to take a bike tour in France?

    The best time for a France bike tour is spring (April to June) or fall (September to October), when temperatures range from 18–26°C / 64–79°F and crowds tend to be smaller.

    If you’re taking an alpine or coastal tour, summer is your best season. If seeking a holiday in winter, southern France will provide warm temperatures.

  • Are France bike tours suitable for beginners?

    Yes, many cycling routes in France are flat and well-marked, making them excellent choices for beginners. In particular, the Loire Valley and the Alsace are perfectly suited for beginner bike trips. E-bikes and support vehicles are also often available.
