Overview

From Bordeaux to Sarlat via Bergerac, enjoy the best of the French South West! Cycling through some of the most prestigious vineyards and the magnificent valleys of the rivers Dordogne and Vézère. Discover Bordeaux and Dordogne by bike. Admire magnificent landscapes by browsing the great wines of Bordeaux and St Emilion before being greeted by Périgord. The Dordogne Valley offers rich and tasty regional cuisine, enchanting castles, peaceful and flowery villages, green countrysides and beautiful and constantly changing landscapes. At the meanders of the Dordogne and the Vézère, you are rewarded by superb views: the "cingles" (meanders) formed by the rivers, a medieval castle overlooking a valley, a manor house surrounded by walnut trees to the charming medieval town of Sarlat.
