5-day bike trip in the heart of Provence

We had a beautiful tour through Provence in mid June. The wineries and villages were beautiful. There were some tough uphills, and we did not use e-bikes, but we are in our mid 60s and managed it. Just be in fairly good aerobic shape.

The bike ride through Provence was beautiful. The quality of the bikes was good and the route was easy to follow and mostly on flat terrain through Vineyards and small villages. We opted for the mid range accommodation upgrade. Two of the four hotels were lovely. The other two were not nice and not worth the extra money. Overall we enjoyed our trip. It was a wonderful way to see the countryside.

Velo voyageur have been professional and efficient from the get go when we booked our tour from New Zealand. The GPS app was incredible so much thought and research behind it. Really easy to use and you feel very supported. The bikes routes were lovely and were mainly off the main roads. Our bikes were excellent and we had tools go any event. We did need support for a back flat tour and we’re directed to a nearby bike shop through the company. Excellent hotels .

Everything is taken care of so you can just enjoy the ride. The ebikes were excellent, hotels comfortable and the navigation app worked great.

We really enjoyed our self guided trip through Provence with 4 days of cycling and 3 other couples. The hotels were perfect for us with respect to accommodations, breakfast, and friendly staff that were always willing to help us with our luggage, bikes, and storage. Three of our hotels had great restaurants in place for our convenience especially since it was early in the shoulder season with many restaurants not open yet open. Mid April saw no touristy crowds with tourists but our week riding there corresponded with Le Mistral Winds. We cycled through gusts of 46 mph making this an unforgettable experience. The bikes were comfortable but the GPS app took some getting used to. We would have liked the app to navigate to/from our hotel instead of the tourist centers. However, the directions were clear and the volume was good if put your phone in a pocket to avoid overheating in the plastic map covers. The handle bar bag and panniers had adequate space. We even rode with a bottle of wine in there that we bought from the wine museum. We would recommend you bring your own water bottle or Le Vélo could provide one which would be good for marketing. One of our riders had repeated flats so we called Le Vélo and they sent out a reliable mechanic that fixed the problem with the rim. Throw in some duct tape as this helped a seat post from slipping and a mud guard from rubbing but all 8 bikes made the trip well especially on the off road parts. Our overall experience was awesome cycling at our own pace along the Rhône river, amongst olive groves and vineyards, stopping off at recommended cafes for lunch, enjoying the wine tasting, and picture taking of the beautiful poppy fields, les Dentelles and Mont Ventoux. We would love to do another trip with Le Vélo soon.

We bikes for 4 days around Provence. The route was easy to follow and directed us along interesting quiet roads, and 35km per day or so was easy to do. The bikes and equipment (panniers, phone mount, front pouch) were of a high quality and perfect for dry or wet weather. The accommodation all had very friendly hosts and were located in convenient locations close to town. We loved our cycle trip!

In genearl good service and organizing. Nice routes with little traffic. Charming hotels with friendly staff. Good bikes and a very useful app.

We booked a trip in July, and the biking was lovely. Quite flat, and a beautiful landscape. The bikes were of good quality, and the app with directions was easy to use. Nice hotels in category A, and very good service from Velo Voyageur.

Great trip, well organised with good app, bikes and support when required. Would highly recommend

We were very happy with the trip, we are a couple in our fifties who have never completed a cycling adventure like this previously. Le Velo Voyageur provided highly detailed trip information which included a log of instructions and maps - this was all clear and understandable. Our trip was rated moderate which meant some gentle grades and occasional gravel paths on predominantly quiet smaller bitumen roads that took us through smaller towns. The route choice was perfect as we were after a slow relaxed holiday ride that allowed us to safely travel this region at our own pace. I suspect that the trip enabled us to explore parts of the region we may not have otherwise considered. We opted for the basic level of accommodation which in our opinion was excellent - and provided clean hotels, good breakfasts, comfortable beds and accommodating hosts. The baggage transfer system worked well. The bikes were excellent. Thank you le Velo Voyageur.

Honestly, our 4 day cycle trip was one of the loveliest holidays I've ever had. You organised it perfectly and every aspect of the trip - from the routes you had suggested through vineyards and the prettiest towns to the places we stayed - all wonderful. You can be sure we will be booking another trip with you, it's just a question of when.
