Bike Race Tours

For the true cycling fan who wants to live the race

This is cycling at its most electric.
Our Bike Race Tours place you at the heart of the world’s greatest professional events — Tour de France, Giro d’Italia, Vuelta a España, Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Tour Down Under and more — where you’ll watch the peloton roar past from prime roadside positions.
But you won’t just spectate. You’ll ride the same legendary roads the pros race on.
Each day blends:
• Fully guided small-group rides on iconic routes
• Strategic race-viewing access
• Exceptional restaurant lunches in perfect viewing locations
• Premium accommodation and seamless logistics
These tours are ideal for passionate cycling fans who want to combine serious riding with unforgettable race immersion — and for non-riding partners who love the atmosphere just as much.
If you want the energy of race day and the romance of the sport, this is your tour.
Unpack once. Ride every day.

Leisure Bike Tours

For riders who value enjoyment over intensity

Slow the pace. Savour the scenery. Stay for lunch.
Our Leisure Bike Tours are about pure pleasure — discovering beautiful regions by bike without pressure or performance expectations. Ride quiet roads through Lake Annecy, the Algarve, Adelaide, or coastal Italy, with distances and terrain tailored to your comfort level.
Here, the experience extends well beyond the bike:
• Relaxed, scenic daily rides
• Flexible route options
• Long lunches at hidden-gem local restaurants
• Time to explore, unwind, and immerse in the culture
These tours are perfect for couples, mixed-ability groups, or cyclists who want a premium experience without the emphasis on difficulty.
