Feedbacks
We loved our tour - you and your team did an excellent job - the hotels were great and everything worked just fine!
We remain extremely satisfied with Discover France. We have been doing self-guided bike trips for 40 years, mostly in Europe, mostly in France, with a great variety of companies. We have done at least one trip a year, and more recently two. This ... was our fifth or sixth tip with Discover France (with another already booked for this fall). For our sensibilities, Discover France really delivers. Trip descriptions are accurate, ugly surprises have been non-existent, customer support before and during the trip is outstanding. All the planning is well organized. Luggage transfers have been prompt and reliable (although depending on the trip, delivery can be later in the afternoon on some routes). Pricing is fair. Response to emails is quick and accurate. The phone support during trips the couple of times we have needed it is excellent. A lot of US bike tour companies are really just middle-men, reselling trips that are actually run by small local or regional providers. Being a French company, Discover France is the actual provider for at least the France based trips, and so they have more direct control and knowledge of the trips.
