600km over 6 days (shorter routes or more days available), starting and finishing in the magnificent city of Bordeaux. Beautiful river gorges of the Dordogne and Lot Valleys Cycling Tour, vineyards, and a seemingly endless procession of breathtaking medieval villages. The scenery is amazing, your camera will be worn out by the end of the trip. Great quiet roads with lots of variety but no lung-busting steep grades. Here you will find some of the most beautiful cycling roads in France. April, May, June, September, and October are great. May is my favorite time. July and August can get very busy.

Fly in and out of Bordeaux with Aer Lingus or Ryanair.
