France Countryside and village visits Trips

A very enjoyable week cycling around Provence in glorious weather. Good company and an experienced and knowledgeable tour Leader. Our third cycle tour with Explore all of which have created great memories.

Great cycling & a beautiful area to visit. Erwin is so welcoming, knowledgeable, accommodating & passionate about ensuring the group have the best holiday. The accommodation is perfectly located and we had time each day to explore. Would definitely recommend this trip.

The cycling was graded as "easy" and I was pleased that was indeed the case as I had never done a cycling holiday with Explore before. The group of 16 looked rather daunting at first, but we all got on really well together and had good fun, especially all mucking in to make an unexpected barbecue in the grounds of our accommodation. The accommodation was appropriate for the places and areas where we were, and the tour leader organised everything well to see the most interesting places, have good meals and a wine-tasting, and stop for appropriate breaks. The "optional" harder day was the most enjoyable, the beautiful scenery and stunning village of Minerve more than making up for the uphill ride.

I can’t say enough positively about Erwin, who was always aware of us and available for questions. He was always patient with us and writing us to cycle safely. He’s an excellent guide tour guide to leader Good mix of we 16 cyclists I’m glad I had an E-bike as I could not without a lot of strain on my 82-year-old legs with bilateral knee replacements cycle up the long Hills

Erwin was great tour leader who went over and above to ensure the group and individuals had a fab experience. The cycle routes were well planned, social evenings were fun and we finished the week with a swim in the Med!!

Erwin was a well organised ,experienced and cheerful guide who instilled an enthusiasm for exploring the beautiful towns and countryside of Provence .He was knowledgeable and flexible and provided great bikes It was my first experience of a group cycle and I am looking forward to another .
