Amazing experience
Palace of Versailles Paris Full Day Bike Tour with Picnic
What a wonderful way to experience an incredible part of history to truly get the sense of scale, grandeur and beauty. So much fun had by our family to experience the local market having a personalised & guided tour of all that Versailles has to offer with its amazing palace beating the queues, having the various rooms explained by our amazing guide, the the beauty of a picnic lunch in the shade of the grand canal & onto to see the beautiful gardens. So easy having been met at the train in Paris - we will be doing this tour again!

European Heat Bubble
Along the Rhône River from Geneva to Lyon
It was a well thought out trip but the first day was long and steep for Florida bikers. The accommodations were adequate and Perouge was gorgeous. Great breakfasts and the rides along the river were idyllic.

Great bike tour !
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
Excellent way to experience France ! Charming hotels, friendly locals all saying "Bonjour!", amazing cycling network, we were self-guided, but were provided with a great cycling app which told us when we were off course. Some suggestions: I wish we were told that leaving Chassey Le Camp was not the same way as our arrival...as the mountain climb was painful and we did not have an e-bike; the Fleur De Sel restaurant was not very friendly, maybe someone should check if they want to be mentioned in a booklet for cyclists; and when we arrived at noon to a couple of restaurants in Cormatin, they said they were full inside and outside despite having empty seats, we think it was because we were dirty biking through the rain, so you should warn other cyclists.

Everything i wanted and more.! I am very very pleased with the experience.
Burgundy Wine Trails: Beaune to Macon on the “Voie Verte”
My tour was something I will remember forever. The bike was well equipped for the tour. The phone holder worked very well and the app was easy to use. My favourite part of the tour quickly became the first 20 min of the day after leaving the hotel and having a beautiful morning ride of out the towns into the country side. The scenery was so so lush and green. Birds singing, flowers blooming everywhere. We took a long slow lunch in the many beautiful towns and had a wonderful experience. Will be taking about this trip to everyone!

Interesting ride through the beautiful Boudreaux region of France
Atlantic Coast of France
Great rides on pretty much car free roads. Vineyards as far as the eye a see in many areas. Good wine at great prices. Especially liked exploring Bordeaux city.
Ebikes worked well, but we’re heavy for my wife. App giving directions was great at times but confused us at other times- What was the date of your tour?

Good trip, bad weather
Loire a Velo: Orleans to the Atlantic
Very good ride with good roads and little car traffic. Beautiful chateaus and scenery. We were plagued by poor weather and too much riding in the rain

Loire a Velo: Orleans to the Atlantic
The trip was memorable!!! The 4-star hotels were well-located and offered excellent service. The distances covered were appropriate, leaving plenty of free time to enjoy the destination upon arrival. The electric bikes worked perfectly. Kate's attention and advice before and during the trip, as well as that of the local provider, were invaluable. We will definitely book with Biketours again.

A great trip.
Along the Rhône River from Geneva to Lyon
The scenery was fantastic. The route was a good balance of relaxing and challenging. The bike was a good quality bike and well maintained. I’m glad we opted for e-bikes. We had no seasoned cyclists in our group, but we coped with hills and terrain quite effectively thanks to the e-bikes.

This trip was a fantastic fit for us
Canal du Midi: Carcassonne to Sete, the South of France and the Sea
This was our first bike tour in France; we will definitely be back for more. In general, the tours and experience were as advertised. Actually, the experience exceeded my expectations. Each of the stops were interesting in their own right, and Carcassonne was a great place to start. We loved the aesthetic of the canals and boats. We saw towns and back country that we never would have seen by car or train. The riding was spectacular. We were very pleased that 95 percent of the riding was on backroads and along the canal trails. We had very good food. I was worried about the one dinner that was included in the tour at an inn in a small village. It ended up being one of our favorite meals.
Hotels were perfectly fine (the trip was two years ago, so I don't recall the details). The bags and portering worked well at each location. The first day reception and bike and map training were also on point. The map app worked great. I was really glad I had ear buds. We really didn't have to reference the maps much along the way because you get verbal prompts from the app when the path changes or veers in another direction.
Yes, there are some climbs, as advertised, through a couple of passes. I was a happy for the exertion, my partner was happy with the e-bike!
About us: We are a couple from the US, fit, 52 and 61 at the time of the trip. We did a self guided tour. One of us was on a regular trail bike, one was on an electric trail bike. We have traveled in France many times.

First Bike Trip
Cycling Paradise of Provence - to and from Avignon
Overall, the e-bikes and service provided by Phillip were exceptional! Claire was also very helpful with check-in and the initial overview — much appreciated.
We did encounter a few challenges with navigation. We didn’t receive all of the correct maps in advance, and the maps provided were a bit tricky to follow, though we managed in the end.
The hotel in L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue was disappointing. The bed consisted of two twin mattresses pushed together with a sheet, and the frame legs weren’t secured. Additionally, the hotel’s location on the edge of town made it inconvenient to walk to restaurants after a day of biking. Breakfast was quite minimal — one slice of ham, one slice of cheese, one roll, and a single cup of coffee.
The first and third hotels were good overall.
It would be great to have more suggested points of interest along the routes — for example, recommended stops at local wineries or scenic spots.
Just FYI - I am a travel agent and will now be able to advise clients on bike tours experiences.

Bike tour of Southern Fran e
South of France: UNESCO World Heritage Sites
We loved our bike tour through the rolling hills and quaint villages of France. We especially enjoyed visiting the UNESCO Heritage Sites and wished we’d had a little bit more information on this history of the region.
Would it be possible to include some not so famous sites that are worth visiting on your map interface such as chapels, wineries or cafes worth visiting ?- What was the date of your tour?

Tour was cancelled morning we supposed to go.
Loire Valley & Chambord E-Bike Tour with Food Tasting from Amboise
Would have appreciated knowing sooner about the cancellation so we could have made other plans. The bike tour was the main reason we came to Amboise.

Perfect amount of mileage
Nature, Villages & Castles of the Loire River Valley
It was a wonderful experience. The hotels were clean and comfortable and always expecting us when we arrived. Never an issue with our luggage transfers either. Would definitely use Biketours.com again to organize our next trip!

Bubbles and bikes a great combination
Champagne Getaway: Charming Villages & Regional Wine Cellars
This self-guided tour was fantastic. The routes were well planned on lightly trafficked roads. The accommodations exceeded our expectations. And the champagne was extraordinary. We could not be happier with our selection of Bike Tours to provide services to us for our tour. We would not hesitate to recommend the company and this tour to our friends and family.

German Influences in a Very Different Culture
Alsace Wine Country
This was our tenth European bike tour. We have pedaled many of the countries around Germany, but never in France. Beginning in Strasbourg, the rich history and architecture of the region take their grasp. The first two days were flat and easy, enjoying the quiet between cornfields and canals. The quaint villages along the way are filled with stone and timbered houses, cobblestone streets and ponds with serene swans. Some of the hill country through the grape/wine road presented challenges, but nothing that could not be accomplished. We enjoyed the German influence on the local cuisine, along with the famous wines of the Alsace.

Beautiful
Loire a Velo: Orleans to the Atlantic
Of the nearly dozen bike trips we’ve taken, the sights and the bike paths were probably the best. Biketours.com was very helpful in organizing us for the trip.
BUT THE E-BIKES WERE VERY HEAVY AND HARD TO MANAGE. LIGHTER WEIGHT E-BIKES WOULD BE SAFER.- What was the date of your tour?

Amazing bike trip down the Loire
Custom and Private Bike Tours in France
We loved our custom bike trip we did with friends in the Loire River valley in France! Most of trip was on dedicated bike trails and one-lane roads shared with the occasional car. The 4 star hotels exceeded our expectations. The route was well organized and we found we could easily stay on the selected paths. Overall, it was a great experience and we want to do something like it again!
