Read our reviews from all our self-guided cycling trips in France

A very well organised trip, we enjoyed it all. Ever changing scenery, so much to see all the way along the route. Lovely places to stay, endless options for great food, and local sites to visit and or see. [...]

We did the tour with 11 people, all over 60 years of age, with a range of biking experience, with two people on e-bikes. It was a tremendous two weeks of exercise, site seeing and good food!

What an amazing tour! I had a fantastic 2 weeks. So much history and so many things to see cycling beside the might Rhone - from vineyards to apple orchards, from roman ruins to flamingos. [...]

Amazing self-guided 600 km Loire à Vélo French Bike Tour from Nevers to Brevins Les Pins on the Atlantic coast, along quiet, mostly smooth, off-road cycle paths, through genuine off-the —beaten track French villages and towns. Wonderful congenial French hotels and hosts, sumptuous breakfast, superlative organisation, faultless luggage transfer, excellent bikes. Everyday was a new and exciting cultural and scenic experience.  [...]

Die Reise ist von der Buchung an perfekt organisiert - wir haben problemlos einen zusätzlichen Tag eingeschoben. Die Räder waren gut gewartet, mit ausreichend Packtaschen versehen und für die Strecke gut geeignet. Die Streckenführung ist hervorragend gewählt und durch die App gut begleitet. [...]

Excellent Loire bike tour and one of the few that combines the full track from Orleans to Angers in a package. Limited day-to-day distances, so you have ample time to visit the castles, going for a drink on a terrace and enjoy nature.

We would highly recommend this trip for the varied scenery, beautiful towns and villages and easy to follow and safe cycling routes. The hotels were very friendly and welcoming and very good value for money. There are some hills to climb but the challenge was worth it the views were stunning.  [...]

Cycling, Chateaus and Ice cream. A fabulous trip - even the extreme heatwave didn’t change that. With this weather we adapted and left accomodation early to cycle in the cooler mornings. [...]

Every step of the way the team at French Bike Tours were were responsive and happy to help. Our ride east from Bordeaux was a great experience and every part of the trip worked like clockwork. We felt comfortable on our bikes, the App was like a virtual guide and assistance who was with us for the whole journey, and the accommodation was always comfortable and conveniently located. [...]
