All cycling stages are on paved cycle paths or side roads. Occasional contact with traffic (in Cannes and Nice, partly on the promenade, partly on cycle paths on busy roads). Stages can be extended or shortened individually so that both leisure cyclists and sporty cyclists get their money’s worth.

Away from the coastal bike paths, the terrain is partly hilly. The use of an e-bike is recommended.

Individual arrival (airport Nice or Marseille, good train connection with the TGV to Toulon/Hyères). Your hotel is located in Hyères-Plage, close to the beach.

You visit the enchanting old town of Hyères. Along the Route de Vins, you cycle through the picturesque vineyards and enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. Visit one of the countless traditional wineries and castles of the Côte de Provence and taste delicious rosé wines or freshly pressed olive oil.

May we take you to paradise? Passing flamingo colonies, you cycle to the boat station and transfer to the dream island Porquerolles, (payable on site). The island is car-free, characterized by olive plantations, vineyards and romantic bays with white sandy beaches. Worth seeing are the Plage de Notre Dame, the fort and the Lighthouse.

On well-developed cycle paths you cycle over the old salt works, past vineyards and olive groves - the sea within a few meters - to the fishing village Le Lavandou, at the foot of the Moorish massif. With a little perseverance or by e-bike, a detour to Bormes-les-Mimosas, famous for its panorama and the old town, is worthwhile.

Today you will not only change your hotel, your will find yourself in a whole new world. From the unspoilt coast you travel by train (included) to the capital of the Côte d’Azur. Nice awaits you with its old town, fashionable buildings and museums.

The famous Promenade des Anglais takes you along the Mediterranean coast to Antibes. The small town of Greek origin is not only well known for its marina, but also for the Old Town and the Picasso Museum. Surround the Cap d’Antibes with its botanical garden, where the high society owns its holiday villas.

Take the train in the morning (not included) and reach Grasse, the perfume capital of the world. With a long downhill ride, today’s stage will take you off the beaten track to Cannes on the coast, where you continue along the coastal road to Antibes. From Antibes you can either return to Nice along the Promenade (adding another 15 km to the route) or take the train.

Alternatively, you have the opportunity to take part in an interesting city tour by bike (optional) or you can take the time to enjoy the city by bike. Explore Nice and its museums on your own. The principality of Monaco is only 25 minutes away by train.

At the end of your cycle trip you can stock up on Provençal specialties at the famous market Cours Saleya and drink a café au lait before you start your return journey. It is also a good idea to extend the trip - Nice and the surrounding area still have a lot to offer. The car rental prices on the Côte d’Azur are really low. Individual departure or extension.
