The Alsace wine route (EuroVelo route 5) was a great introduction to this region, the villages and towns of the area are very picturesque and made for a great 3 days cycling, we chose e-bikes as it is a hilly area, and made for a leisurely experience. Even though we didn't have hot and sunny weather in October it didn't detract from the enjoyment of the bike trip.

We had a wonderful time on our ride from Bordeaux to Sete. The bikes were very comfortable and sturdy; the hotels were very nice and atmospheric; and the level of planning and response from French Bike Tours was way beyond our expectations. We especially appreciated the excellent GPX guides which made everything easier. [...]
We did three tours this summer with FBTs. Brittany, Provence and Alsace. The routes through Brittany and Alsace were absolutely beautiful and the accomodation was great at all three. [...]
days of cycling from Bordeaux to Toulouse, the changing scenery was a source of delight and wonder. We started the journey on a rail trail then cycled among hills of vineyards and distant towns and villages. Midway through the 2nd day we reached the canal, and cycled along the FLAT terrain for the remainder of our journey. [...]
I had a great holiday cycling along the Canal du Midi. Although I booked at quite short notice the French Bike Tours team worked hard to put together an itinerary that exactly met my needs. Everything went smoothly and, based on my recent experience, I highly recommend French Bike Tours for anyone looking for a self-guided cycling holiday. [...]
The beautiful Loire cycle routes are great for a relaxed cycle holiday with lots to see along the way. The whole trip was organised very well and went smoothly. In the main the comfort plus accommodation was lovely and it was great to have a pool to swim in at each hotel after a days cycling. [...]
