Dordogne Adventure Tours 2024/2025

“This was an excellent trip. The local operator was very well organised, helpful and professional. The trip notes were excellent, the accommodation of a high standard and the included meals were great value. We enjoyed a generous sampling of the local food and produce, as well as the local wines. The Dordogne is a very picturesque, historic and interesting area to visit.”

“Our week was particularly hot, as temperatures in the high 30's swept over France. This probably made the hills a bit more of a challenge, but they are achievable since the bikes are very good and have plenty of gears.We would recommend this holiday, the cycling distances are all less than 50k, taking us through stunning scenery and pretty villages.We were well briefed by the tour operator's staff and when we had a problem with the bike that needed assistance, they came to us within 10 minutes.The first hotel is without doubt disappointing, cramped and poor facilities. However the restaurant next door at La Veille Auberge is excellent.Les Glycines and Le Moulin de Mitou were fantastic with great pools, nice rooms and outstanding food.On our free day at Eyzies de Tayac we hired a canoe from just outside the hotel and paddled for 18k although other longer and shorter distances can be arranged.”

“Overall our trip was wonderful, the walk was great and we enjoyed it very much. We started at 9am each day and finished by 5pm, we took an hour to have a picnic lunch each day. The food was to die for at each place. A couple of things to consider if you are an older walker. 1. If you have the time, leave a day between walks. There is so much to see in each town and we didn't have time each day to see (especially Domme, which is beautiful, take a extra day) 2. Follow the instructions exactly (the rock wall with two letter boxes is not the turn, further along is a rock wall with one letter box). 3. Accommodation is on the 2nd floor with no lift, keep your luggage light. Thoroughly recommend this trip.”
