Creating unforgettable guided cycling holidays since 2002.
At French Cycling Holidays, we love France and we love cycling.
Since 2002 we have shared this passion to give our riders an unforgettable experience, helping them get to know the real France.
Cycle past medieval villages perched on craggy hilltops… Sip coffee in sun-soaked squares… Cruise down shady avenues of plane trees… Inhale the scent of the pine forest or the salty sea air, before settling down for a lazy lunch…
- Relax! Let our French-speaking guides show you the best of France
- Stay in comfortable, charming and independent hotels
- Wine and dine in our favourite restaurants
- Make unforgettable memories exploring the French countryside on two wheels
Our guides are there to help you experience the very best of the region, whilst ensuring your vacation is stress-free. All you have to do, is pedal!
Our cycle guides take care of the smallest details
With their loyalty and expert knowledge, our wonderful bilingual guides are what make your holiday extra special and set our cycle tours apart.
Experts in their region, our cycle guides’ insights, recommendations and practical skills ensure that you get so much more out of your cycling holiday than relying on a guidebook.
Choosing the best cafés, knowing where to get an amazing local beer or cider, visiting a fantastic artisan cheesemaker or olive producer, and introducing you to the vignerons who share their passion as well as their delicious wines… A little local knowledge sure goes a long way!
Riding with a guide also means any problems can all be dealt with smoothly and swiftly to keep you and the group on the move. (And if your riding guide can’t fix it, our minibus is never far away, with spares and snacks!)
New! E-bikes available on all our guided cycling holidays
With the ever increasing popularity of electrically assisted bicycles, we are pleased to announce that e-bikes are now available on all of our holiday tours, including e-road bikes for our challenging mountain tours.
E-bikes are a fantastic way to try a more challenging tour, or to enable a less experienced cyclist to accompany a more advanced partner without worrying that it might be a bit too much for them. Contact us to discuss your requirements; we're sure to be able to help!
How to choose the best cycle tour?
We know that with so many breath-taking landscapes, so much history and culture, and such a wealth of French foodie destinations, it is extremely challenging to pick just one area of France to explore by bike. Let us help you decide the best French cycle trip for you and your group.
