Hot Deal: Tour de France Trip & Etape du Tour

Priced at 499 euros; this is a smokin deal for truly independent types: Self Contained Pyrenees Cycling Tour at the Tour de France. This package was just added today as we modified our Etape du Tour offers. At 4 nights, the charming little hotel is in the key town of Argeles sur Gazost and right at the foot of Aubisque and Hautacam. Not too much further to Tourmalet or Luz Ardiden or even Pau, this is an excellent location. These places will not last long!
ETAPE du Tour - A full stage of the Tour de France over closed roads! Our Short Etape du Tour program has sold better (990 euros with guide and vehicle!) and we sold almost all of our Etape entries to custom groups (about 40 people combined). So, we have up to 7 remaining places for Etape du Tour for this short trip, which is a guided program to make handling the logistics of Etape really easy. If you have the time, you can add on the self contained program above for a week that is under 1500 euros for 7 nights at the Tour de France and experience you'll never forget!

Paris Nice 2010

The program has been announced on the 29th of January, and can be viewed at:

The route bends a little west this year through the Loire Region to Limoges before turning back to the east in a gradual descent down the country of France and into the "Cote d'Azur" at Nice. That's a trip through some typically cold country late winter to the warm and sunny Med coast. 7 stages and a prologue that see over 200km in just about every stage. There is some climbing too! The race starts March 7 just outside Paris and finishes in Nice on March 14.

Not coincidentally, but specifically in conjunction with Paris-Nice, we are offering some early season guided cycling tours on the French Riviera to ride the sunny region and see the end of Paris-Nice. Check out the program on this page of our Cycling Classics Site: http://www.cyclingclassics.com/riviera.php This trip is a guided program and priced at an amazing price of 1595 euros! It is low season, airfares are cheap, and the Mediterranean coast is usually a nice warm place to be in March!
