Overview

Join us on our week long tour of Brittany, where we will soak up the Bréton culture and beautiful scenery, all whilst on our 'bisiklets' - the Breton word for bikes. The region is very bike friendly, with some traffic-free cycle routes and plenty of quieter roads. Beginning in the attractive coastal town of Saint-Malo, we head across to the stunning UNESCO world heritage site of Mont St Michel on our first morning. You will see many charming castles and exquisite villages throughout the tour, a range of scenery including charming coastal views, white-sand beaches, medieval villages and undulating countryside. Covering a total of 300 - 345 miles / 483 - 555km depending on which route options you choose, this grade 4 tour provides another superb experience in a similar vein as our other tours—you will be well-fed and well-looked after! This tour has 6 days of cycling with some optional shorter or rest days and we stay in the same hotel for two nights in Josselin and Dinan, so there are some shorter and longer day loop options on those days.
