  The tranquil Provençal landscapes and wild moors of the Camargue region

  The colors: from the green expanses of vineyards to the pink of the salt marshes of the little village of Aigues Mortes

  Relaxation on board at the end of each day's ride

  What awaits you

  A week of cycling, suitable even for less experienced cyclists. The stages are mainly on back roads with little traffic, mostly flat, with a few ups and downs in northern Arles. There's only one more challenging stretch, to reach Les Baux de Provence, but the extraordinary scenery that you pass through certainly repays the effort. The rides are combined with boat rides to reach the starting points of the routes and to enjoy the views from the water.

  This tour can be self-guided or guided: choose to cycle at your own pace using our App, or with the whole group following the tour leader.
