Ideas for organized bike trips in France or Italy this summer

Hi everyone,

With summer just around the corner, I’m looking for ideas for organized bike trips in France or Italy. I’m pretty used to traveling independently, but this time I’d like to try something more structured—either in a small group or with minimal logistics (accommodations booked, luggage transport, etc.).

I’m open to different difficulty levels, as long as the setting is pleasant (countryside, seaside, well-known routes, or even a bit more off-the-beaten-path). If you’ve already tried this kind of trip or have good recommendations for agencies or providers, I’d love to hear them!

Thanks in advance for your tips! 🚴‍♂️☀️

I’ve booked an organized trip along the Loire with Rêve de Vélo Travel—I’ll keep you posted! 😊

Hi there,

You might get some inspiration from Tina’s bike trip here: https://www.instagram.com/p/C8cDpNUILhB/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MWVjOWtlMnplbGo5aw==

From her experience, it can be really tough to do long bike rides in Italy (few dedicated bike lanes, for example).

Here’s a site to check out (maybe you already know it): https://fr.eurovelo.com/italy

Happy planning! !

My partner booked a bike trip along the Loire with Terre d’Aventure. The reviews are good, so he’s setting off with confidence!
