Cycling from Bordeaux vineyards to the ocean, Arcachon basin

A self-guided ride through fine vineyards and to sandy bays

This locally run self-guided bike tour takes in the Bordeaux area and its treasures: from the prestigious Bordeaux vineyards to the Atlantic coast. Discover the richness of the Gironde region as you cycle from the Premières Côtes de Bordeaux wine-making area to end your holiday with a swim in the ocean. Evazio, an English-speaking Bordeaux-based bike company, can provide everything you need, including a full road book with maps. Start by cycling through the Entre-Deux-Mers vineyards and onto the vast forests of the Parc Naturel Régional des Landes before reaching Arcachon Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The route takes in dedicated cycling paths as well as mostly flat smaller backroads. The starting price is for 5-7 nights' B&B in charming 3-star hotels and guesthouses, GPS app with vocal guiding, daily luggage transfers, return ferry from Arcachon to Cap Ferret and taxi transfer on your first day or last day. There is also emergency phone call support 24/7. Touring bikes with panniers can be provided on request if you're not bringing your own.
