7 day Custom Escorted tour
Our French bike tours are appreciated by our clients because of the choice of their hotels and especially for the gastronomic highlights in the restaurants. That’s why we are excited to present an unforgettable cooking course in the Provence region. A cooking course where all lovers of the fine cuisine of Provence will be able to prepare their own meals.
You follow special cooking courses in one of our nicest hotels (rated 2 chimneys by Logis de France) not far from Avignon, in a very peaceful and relaxing area. Every day at 5 p.m., you’ll take possession of the kitchen in company of the chef and become his assistant, and at dinner you enjoy the fruits of your labour.
That’s not all, because during the day we organise different themed excursions by bike. For example, shopping at the excellent food market in Villenueve-lez-Avignon, or visiting one of the famous wine cellars of the Cotes-du-Rhone, or cycling in the middle of the fruit trees along the Rhone river. You'll also discover some of the specialities of the area by the 3 picnics we organise in the lovely surroundings of the Provence countryside.
