We offer vehicle support for the riders and the spectators will be transported to the day’s touristic venue or to a vantage point to watch the race.

Transportation

On days where we move on to another hotel, we will transport luggage, bike boxes and bikes and we will offer an adapted itinerary depending on the day’s logistics.

Spectators

Riders and spectators may have a different itinerary daily but are reunited to enjoy the race watching experiences together. We attempt to keep hotel changes and transfers to a minimum.

Who is this tour for?

Cyclists and Spectators

Our tour is suitable for both cyclists of any level and non-cycling spectators. The hotels we stay at are in excellent locations with the world-renowned French cuisine we all enjoy so much.

Our daily, guided rides give cyclists the opportunity to ride some of the most beautiful climbs that feature on the 2025 Tour de France.

We stay in nice places but we will also provide plenty of opportunity for spectators to enjoy time away from the Tour de France with scheduled visits to local towns and villages.
