In our "Experience" and more leisure tours, we offer you the opportunity to ride the best segments of the race, through the bucket list cycle routes of France, on the same day of France’s premier bike race in 2024. Our "Experience" tours are designed to ride between 60 -100km on each stage with multiple ride options. You will have time to watch the race start or finish or from a strategic mountain position to watch the teams tactically fight for their leaders, enjoy relaxing drinks at hotels, and explore the villages and towns we stay at each evening.

If you are looking for a more challenging tour, the "Ride Every Kilometre" tours are available - the opportunity to ride the entire journey – every single kilometre – with your friends. You can choose to ride 3, 6, 9 or even all 21 stages of the race. You and your companions will need to be strong cyclists to achieve this challenge, but you don't need to be an elite athlete ... ours is a journey, not a race, and we'll leave enough time on each day to enjoy our lunch breaks and photo stops. This tour is designed to be ridden 24 hours before the official stage.

We are ready to get into a new adventure on the French soil!

To book a Ride Every Kilometre Tour in France, get in touch to get the full itinerary and information. We require a minimum of 7 and a maximum of 14 riders on each tour to be able to depart. We will organise the logistics of accommodation, meals and transfers. Depending upon the number of participants, you’ll be supported by 1 or 2 expert guides and 1 or 2 drivers/mechanics. Your group will ride together and the GTP support van is always nearby – with drinks, snacks and dry clothing, as well as mechanical and moral support.

Join us for a cycling holiday of a lifetime with your friends, riding this incredible challenge, makes this an unforgettable experience.
