France bike tours

The best way to discover one of the world's most diverse countries

Escape the routine and rediscover the joy of movement through peaceful countryside, cultural wonders, and timeless traditions. Cycling in France is more than a journey—it’s a sensory, soulful experience where every ride reveals a new story.

Whether you’re longing for the peaceful rhythm of coastal roads, the aroma of wine-covered hillsides, or the echoes of centuries-old villages, France bike tours offer you a window into authentic, immersive travel. From the mountains to the Mediterranean, every region reveals its charm, one pedal stroke at a time.

If you dream of pedaling through lavender fields in Provence bike tours, sipping wine in a shaded vineyard in Burgundy bike tours, or tracing ancient trade routes along the Canal du Midi bike tour, you’ll find every ride tailored to your pace and passions. Discover charming villages, elegant châteaux, and sunlit terraces waiting at every bend.

Choose from over 170 curated bike trips France wide. Ride through vineyard trails in Alsace bike tours, explore the iconic Loire Valley cycling tour, take in dramatic coastal views on the Corsica cycling tour, or test your limits in Pyrenees and the Alps bike tour. Each route captures a different expression of France—through its landscapes, culture, and cuisine.

Traveling by bike, the ideal trip

The first benefit of a bike vacation is that it gives us a break from our busy daily lives. Pedaling, even at speed, usually means slowing down. It means taking the time to really look at the landscape, to see it change, and to feel a magical sense of freedom. It’s breathing deeply, clearing your mind. It’s pedaling, which is good for your heart and your body. It’s also about choosing a sustainable journey that respects others. It’s about surprises along the way, encouragement received, and encounters that create unforgettable memories.

Bike travel within everyone's reach

If it’s the perfect fit for you, traveling by bike does not require any special skills or any particular physical or technical aptitude. The expertise of our travel consultants will help you select the trip and bike model that’s right for you. Whether traditional or electric, all our models are characterized by the quality of the best brands and the latest technologies, their light weight and their ease of use.

France, the ideal country to travel by bike

The country of the Tour de France has established itself as the world’s second most popular destination for cycling tourism, just behind Germany. This type of itinerant vacation has exploded and the number of people traveling by bicycle is growing by about 20% a year (source: Vélo et Territoire).

France is a playground unique in the world, with an exceptional geographical diversity for such a large territory, between rivers, mountains and more than 2,000 km of coastline.

In addition to the great mountain passes made famous by the Tour de France, France now has 20,000 km of cycle paths and greenways. Cycle tourism is a real priority for the authorities, which are encouraging the development of infrastructures and services to offer the best possible welcome to cyclists.

You can also find your luxury european bike tour, your bicycle tour in Europe, your cycling challenge or your cycling training camp.
