Recommended tour operator: Belle France




Belle France says
The Loire valley lends itself perfectly to family cycling holidays. The gradients are undemanding, there are miles of peaceful lanes connecting dozing, pretty villages, historic chateaux, chunks of history and fun attractions.
It’s also quite compact, so distances needn’t be too great if you don’t want them to be.
We find that children love cycling holidays as they are so occupied with what they are doing, seeing and hearing.
On this holiday they get to explore roman ruins, troglodyte houses, sandy river beaches, castle ruins and Leonardo da Vinci’s house.
If that isn’t enough, they’ll love the zoo-parc and also Fantasy Forest where they can try tree-top monkey trails, caving, aerial runways, bouncy castles, devilkarts and more.
Mum and Dad will enjoy plenty of delicious French cuisine, with five of the six nights on a half board basis, with plenty of child-friendly choices available if the smaller people are not quite up to frogs legs yet!
We can offer a full range of bike sizes, including chariots and tag-alongs for smaller or less confident riders.
You also have the peace of mind of our own British courier on the ground should back-up support be required. He will meet you from your train and move all your bags from hotel to hotel whilst you are out soaking up the fresh air all day.
