Overview

Prepare for an immersive journey that takes you deep into the heart of the 2026 Tour de France. This five-day EXPERIENCE escape is designed to push your limits on cycling's most famous roads while granting you exclusive, insider access to the world's greatest race. Your adventure starts within the ramparts of medieval Carcassonne, a stunning introduction to the Occitanie region, climaxing in an unforgettable D-Day TDF Stage Arrivee in Foix, where you'll have the unique privilege of crossing the official finish line and standing on the Tour de France podium. The true test awaits in the mountains, where you are perfectly positioned to launch assaults on two classic TDF giants. Witness the electrifying, behind-the-scenes chaos of a Stage Start with VIP access, then feel the silent exhaustion of the professionals as they battle past your private viewing camp. Non-rider partners are warmly welcomed on our Experience Tours. These journeys are designed to be shared - while riders conquer the roads, non-riders can enjoy cultural activities, scenic viewpoints, local cuisine, or cheer on the riders from our support vehicle.
