"Excellent bikes and the route was well planned and easy to follow. All the accommodation was excellent. The hosts at all destinations were helpful. A special thank you, please pass on to Hotel Le pre des Baux Maussane to the lady of the house for doing some much needed washing for us. We would never have experienced French hosptiality to this extent at all the destinations and it was an adventure to get off the beaten track, especially going through some of the smaller villages where we stopped for coffee or lunch. Trying the chocolate eclairs for morning tea in St Etienne du Gres was scrumptous. I do some biking but my partner although reasonalbly fit does not bike, this trip was challenging enough for both of us, loved the backroads and bike paths, not so keen on the main roads, and just hung on on the small amount of gravel road. A tour of France which cannot be experienced by car or staying in the major cities. We saw a side of French hospitality and scenery which many miss, by getting out into the countryside. "
