Fabulous tour!
Loire Valley Châteaux & Gardens Tour
We thoroughly enjoyed our Loire Valley bike trip! We could not have had a better guide! He was attentive, incredibly knowledgeable, kind and funny. He even stopped to help another cyclist along the way who had a broken spoke. There was just the right amount of cycling, touring and eating. Our group is already making plans to do another trip next year in Europe.

Brilliant! Everything I would want in a bike trip
Provence’s History, Landscapes, and Luberon National Park
This was an excellent way to experience southern France. The ride was on quiet roads and byways through fields of sweet smelling herbs and lavender

Fabulous experience
French Alpes Tour: Alpes and Ventoux
Our group of eight thoroughly enjoyed our Bike Tours experience. The hotels were both comfortable with excellent breakfasts and multi course dinners featuring local cuisine. The bikes were as advertised and all in great working order. The guide picked us up in Grenoble and was fantastic. He accompanied us on the rides in van providing water as needed and set up a nice picnic lunch for us. He was also an avid cyclist and accompanied us on bike on additional supplemental rides when we encouraged him to. Overall the tour was 6 days of outstanding cycling and everything that was advertised and more!

We loved it
Paris Evening Bike & Boat Tour
I've done this tour twice when I've visited Paris - the first two years ago and then this June. I loved them both - they were different but each wonderful. The tour this June (2025) took great advantage of all of the new bicycle lanes in Paris so it was a lot of fun to ride on those all through Paris!

Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
The perfect way for me to experience the French wine country. Beautiful scenery, all bicycle trails and country roads with very little traffic, quaint villages, interesting places to see along the way, and the hotels and meal packages were superb.

Bubbles and bikes a great combination
Champagne Getaway: Charming Villages & Regional Wine Cellars
This self-guided tour was fantastic. The routes were well planned on lightly trafficked roads. The accommodations exceeded our expectations. And the champagne was extraordinary. We could not be happier with our selection of Bike Tours to provide services to us for our tour. We would not hesitate to recommend the company and this tour to our friends and family.

Wonderful three Lakes Tour
Three Lakes Tour: From Geneva to Annecy
We were two couples that did the self guided tour of the three lakes region near Annecy. The hotels were nice, breakfast and dinners were great. The downloaded guides on our phones worked great - every now and then the guide told us to go left instead of right but if you're seeing the map on the phone one can figure that out. Bag transfers were seamless. Such a wonderful experience of seeing the region from a bike. Much of the ride was on bike paths - the other areas were on roads with a bike lane. A few miles of ROUGH road but that was just fine. We loved the entire trip.

Wonderful Tour to Little-Known Area
Alsace Wine Country
This is a wonderfully varied tour to an area that most Americans don't visit. The first two days are flat, along shaded canals and country roads. The next two days are hillier, through vineyards and historic towns. The final day has one last beautiful view over the Rhine River valley before descending to another flat day of riding along shady canals. The accommodations are wonderful and mostly in the center of town. The luggage service was reliable each day. The breakfasts were always well stocked. The bikes were well suited to the terrain with plenty of gears and strong tires.

Provence bike tour
Provence’s History, Landscapes, and Luberon National Park
This bike tour is a great way to see southern France. It was very hot when we did this trip and some of the climbs in the mountains were challenging. It was also rewarding to make the climb since the downhill after was amazing! Some training is suggested especially if you go during the hottest part of the summer. Enjoyed the scenic old villages of the Alpilles and in Luberon. Benefits of the guided tour is the great camaraderie among travelers around the world and eliminating the planning and decision making.

Unfortunately, had to cancel....
Marseille Highlights Bike Tour
We had booked ebike tour of Marseille while in port from our cruise but unfortunately, our ship re-directed and we were unable to stop in Marseille. BikeTours support was quick to respond when I reached out to them
They were trying to be flexible with me and accomodate. I GREATLY appreciate their support. They refunded the tour immediately. I will definitely look to them first when traveling to use them again. Highly recommend.

Trip of my dreams!
Wine, Dine and Electric Bike in Burgundy
The perfect way to France! Our guide was great - a very knowledgeable local and wine. He loves his hometown (Burgundy) so much. We enjoyed our journey safely with him. The hotels were very charming and comfortable. The meals were perfect.

Quintessential Provence!
Cycling Paradise of Provence - to and from Avignon
A great sampling of quintessential Provence villages and sights... hilltop villages, wild poppies, fields of lavender. We thoroughly enjoyed all the scenery and activities along the way.
The first day of riding between Avignon and CdP was congested with car traffic (as to be expected close to a bigger city/area), but the other days were primarily smaller roadways and paths and very enjoyable and scenic. We did the add-on day to Arles and were really glad that we included that city in our tour. It felt complete to conclude the trip in Arles. A few of the gps routes lead us into the city center at end of day (instead of directly to hotel), but it was easy to navigate to hotels, and the gps tracks were otherwise very helpful to follow.
We opted for the self-guided tour but felt very supported by the local tour operator who was very responsive to any inquiries we had via WhatsApp.
We have many good memories of this trip!

We all enjoyed everything about our trip!!!
Provence by Bike and Boat
We absolutely enjoyed our stay on the Caprice. Georgio was our guide and I don't think we could have enjoyed anyone better. He is very knowledgeable and witty! We would love to ride another tour with him in the future. We were a group of 5 and we all had the best experience. The Caprice staff treated us very well. The ship was always clean and comfy. The post ride snacks were perfect after riding in 97-degree weather every day. All the food was more than we expected, and we were thrilled with the vegetarian options for those of us that are veggie preferred people!
Still going thru all the photos and reliving the trip. We made great memories and hope to meet up with Georgio again in the near future. Thank you all for this very memorable trip.- Countries included in this tour?
