Cycling France - Tour Upper Provence (Option A)
This six-day, self-guided bike tour allows you to explore the heart of Provence at your own pace. Running from/to Avignon but with the cycling beginning in either Bédoin or Mazan and ending in Roussillon or Gargas, this bicycle tour features relatively short daily rides, allowing you to fully experience Provence rather than just see it as you pass by. Provence is a wonderful region to cycle and this tour really does immerse you into the delights of the area.

I just wanted to let you know that the 3 girls from Utah had an amazing time!! We loved the routes through Provence, all of the hotels, and the food was delicious! We especially enjoyed Hotel le Pins. The staff were so friendly and it was truly a lovely spot! It was so nice to unwind there after a very windy day and rest up for Ventoux...which we did on the most beautiful sunny, low-wind day! What we enjoyed most was the variety along the way. Each day highlighted something new and unique to the Provence area and we loved the surprises we experienced at every turn. Thanks again for a lovely trip and we will definitely ride with [the tour operator] again!

I can't say enough good about [the tour operator]. We enjoy travelling on our own so this is the perfect solution for us. The quality and value of these trips surpass any of their competitors. My husband and I have participated in the Provence tour which started and ended in Avignon. We stayed at very nice -- and some historically significant -- hotels and always, always had wonderful meals! We only had one minor mishap on our first day. We encountered the famous mistral winds and our cue sheets were blown from the bike. We managed to gather each and every one of them! This May we also biked in the Dordogne region...and again, our experience was fabulous. We will definitely travel with them again. Their routes are beautiful with very low traffic and we could have never found them on our own. My only caution to others like me (I hadn't even gotten on a bike this year) is to consider the hills. Next time I may be renting a pedal-assist ebike!

The tour started and finished in Avignon. I was very happy with the organisation, the cues sheets, the accommodation (I had the A+ plan) and the food was superb. I did not rent a bike but I saw the quality of their rental bikes and they look to be very good. I travelled alone on a self guided tour and had no issues. I am already planning another tour for next year. I certainly can recommend this company.
