France Bike Tours

Backroads hosted our first France bike tour in 1988 in the gorgeous Loire Valley. Since then, we’ve deepened our roots in the country. Let us show you why we love cycling France. We will take you past fairytale castles or through fields of lavender in Provence. Meet with local vintners and dine at Michelin-star restaurants after a day biking in the wine countries of Chablis and Burgundy, following the Route des Grands Crus or visiting famous towns like Chassagne-Montrachet.
