We were a party of 3 self-guided - 2 normal bikes/1 e-bike. Starting late May. Weather perfect and a lovely time of year with wildflowers along the roadsides. Route was fascinating and varied with vineyards, agriculture, villages, mountains and more. Who knew the Romans built so many edifices, roads, and towns that still survive today in this area? So much to see. We had added an extra day for each town and were so glad we did. Hotels all acceptable, with one glitch re booking in Nimes. Taxi service for luggage worked perfectly. A small thing, and really the only gripe - the Guibo app navigation was a bit dodgy at times and we would have preferred additional backup resources to support the route. 100% reliant on good phone reception and working data. It was a memorable trip with great weather, friendly people, gorgeous food and wine and amazing history to explore.
We had a great holiday cycling in Provence and the ebikes were excellent. Most of the hotels were really nice with a very good breakfast and located close to the town centre. There was so much to do and see that we didn’t have enough time for everything. The only day we would have changed was the day cycling in the Camargue area which wasn’t anything special. We saw a few flamingos in the distance but with hindsight I wish we’d stayed in Arles to have a better look at some of the amazing Roman buildings. A whole day in Nîmes would have been worthwhile too. One wet day only, but be sure to pack something waterproof. The app for the route guidance didn’t work very well in narrow lanes in city centres but it was fine in more open spaces. In mid-May the temperatures were very pleasant and there were flowers everywhere in the lush, green countryside. Certainly a holiday we won’t forget.
Excellent guidance via the downloaded gps/ map. The two of us were totally on our own each day, but had no trouble following the route accurately. Beautiful countryside! And all cities visited were very interesting for individual reasons. Our luggage was always correctly and timely delivered.
