France by bicycle

Discover France, from its big cities to its beautiful regions

France is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. Paris and its lights, the French Riviera and its great beaches, the summits of the Alps, the pleasure of eating a fresh croissant... there is something for everyone!
Between land and sea, cities and countryside, mountains and valleys, France impresses by the variety of its landscapes and thus, by the number of cycling options that can be integrated to a cycling tour.

The Hexagon, an example of cycling variety

Asterix's country is full of architectural and natural jewels that lend themselves exceptionally well to cycling. Discover the Alsatian countryside and its Franco-German heritage, ride around the Auvergne volcanoes, follow the Canal du Midi or let yourself be lulled by the scents of the lavender fields that abound in Provence.

The most courageous will head for the Alps and its legendary passes: Galibier, Alpe d'Huez, Izoard... recreate your favorite stages of the Tour de France during your dream trip! If you are looking for relaxation and wide open spaces, let yourself be convinced by a Toulouse-Nice trip that will offer you a dive into the rich history of the region, as well as the Mediterranean Sea!

No matter which trip you choose, one thing is certain: gastronomy and wine culture will be on the agenda! Why not opt for a Self-guided package that will allow you to find the perfect balance between the joys of the road and the pleasures of food? Traveling in France means climbing the Tourmalet during the day and eating a tartiflette in the evening!

Well served from Quebec, France offers several possible points of entry: Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux, Nantes.

Thanks to the French railway network, where a large number of trains offer bicycle facilities, it is also possible to combine several regions during the same trip! Do not hesitate to contact our agents who will be happy to create a customized trip for you, according to your wishes and needs.
