Overview
Explore the best Provence has to offer. Culinary highlights include a splendid Mediterranean feast of Côtes-de-Rhône wines, exquisite olive oil from a local olive press and more Roman ruins than you will find even in Italy. France’s small country roads will lead through the secrets behind the local artisans savoir-faire. And we’ll give you the chance to taste it all from special visits and markets right up to special dinner at a local chef’s home. You’ll also visit the places where Van Gogh and Cézanne painted a majority of their most well-known paintings. This trip gives you a superb view of both medieval and Roman masterpieces such as the theater and arena in Arles, the impressive Pont du Gard, and the medieval jewel of Uzès. A great bike tour for friends or couples where one partner likes to ride more than the other.

High intensity, engaging, and immersive bike tour of Provence. Best of the best!
Terri R., Charlotte, NC – September 2023 -
Wonderful accommodations, food, support from staff, great discussion of history of area, bikes and support were great
Carolyn S., Olney, MD – September 2023 -
A fantastic tour of Provence, with challenging but not over the top cycling (unless you climb Mont Ventoux!), with great guides, lovely people, great food and wine, an overall great mix of physical beauty, cultural interests and cycling fun.
