What people love about Bicycle Tours in Provence
- Bike Tour, Provence, France (guided groups)
The Chain Gang trips are top notch and huge fun. Over 10 years or more I have been on most of the Chain Gang’s trips in France - three of them more than once - and I can highly recommend them for the cycling, the routes, the guides and the cuisine. Some of my best ever holidays have been with the Chain Gang. The cycling can be challenging at times but is not prohibitively over strenuous for casual and leisure cyclists. As well as cycling through quiet and often deserted back roads of France, the days allow times for good lunches (often picnics), sightseeing, visits to vineyards and plenty of time to enjoy the local attractions. The hotels used en route are all comfortable and welcoming. Most of all, the Chain Gang guides are exceptional - excellent company, great mechanics and by the end of your week good friends as well. My personal favourite trips are the ones to Provence, the Dordogne and the Bordeaux Wine Trail. I can heartily recommend the Chain Gang trips to anyone or any age who enjoys getting out on their bike.
- Mont Ventoux to Luberon
Great tour routes, excellent hotels and really good food
- Provence Camargue To Nimes
The bike tour covered some beautiful and very interesting territory but it was also very strenuous so we often got into town very late and exhausted without the time or energy to tour the town. The days varied from 18-35 miles and included one very steep day and one day where we had to deal with headwinds. The directions were clear in the countryside but sometimes challenging going in or out of the towns so that we had to supplement with google maps which didn’t take into consideration traffic, biking lanes, closed roads. One of the most exciting experiences was the ornithological park in Camargue which we found on our own. The view from Baux was spectacular.
