Erwin was a great tour guide; knowledgable on all things pertinent to a cycling tour of France! He was also flwxible and adapted as needed (heat wave conditions) and if you are monolingual having a guide who is so fluent is a God-send. Will def consider a future tour - not immediately as its a long way to come from Australia!

Fabulous leaders and incredible route - pathways along the river or back country roads or cycling through small cute towns. Mostly flat - and very nicely paced with coffee and photo stops, or lunch, or a chateau visit! Only reason this didn’t get excellent from me was some of the hotels could have been better (and their free breakfasts)

Amazing food and service, overall good value. Unfortunately for us, the currents were too strong to sail often, due to heavy rain, so had to stay in Nantes for most of the time
