Description

Meet your guide in Aix-en-Provence at 8am and set off for a wonderful day cycling through one of the most beautiful regions in France: the Luberon.

After a short drive aboard our minibus you will arrive in Bonnieux. This is one of the most impressive Luberon villages and has stunning views out across the patchworked valley of orchards and vineyards surrounding it.

Time to climb on your e-bike, get pedalling and enjoy your ride.

Start towards the village of Lacoste. You will stop by the remains of the Marquis de Sade's castle, one of the Luberon's unmissable 11th century jewels. Snap away at the incredible views over the valley and the neighbouring villages.

You'll enjoy a guided ride through olive tree plantations, vineyards and lavender fields (if you come in June-July).

Time for a break and lunch (not included) in the charming village of Ménerbes, listed as ‘one of the most beautiful villages in France’ and made famous by Peter Mayle's novel ‘A Year in Provence’.

Get back in the saddle for a few more pedal strokes before returning to Bonnieux for a well-deserved rest in the minibus.

You will arrive back in Aix-en-Provence at the end of your e-Bike tour at 4pm.

The guide reserves the right to change the order of the stops according to the e-bike riders’ progress.
