Looking for 'inn to inn' bike tours in Europe
What are your recommendations for a good 1-2 week bike tour in
Europe. Ideally, we like to bike from 'last night's inn' to 'tonights bed and breakfast' so that we could see the sights during the day and somehow have our gear transported to the inn at the finish of the day's ride. Do you know of any companies that might set up a tour with this service? I'd also appreciate recommendations in general for good areas to bike in. Thanks, jim cant |

What you ccould do too is start off in a Logis de France hotel. These
are good and sheap. They are an association with hundreds of hotels. You can get a map in any one of them and book the next ones from that. They won't carry your gear but the Dinner Bed and Breakfast is fantastic value. Stick to D roads. |

Do you know of any companies that might set up a tour with this service? I'd also appreciate recommendations in general for good areas to bike in. When I went cycling in Burgundy four years ago, I discoverd these services were common and available though touring companies and bicycle-rental shops alike. We were, for various reasons, renting bikes over there, and needed to do so through two separate shops. Both offered a menu of services. They would rent us any equipment and gear we needed, make reservations for us, port our bags from place to place, and deliver and pick up bicycles at hotels. Any and all for a fee. Itinerary-planning advice was free (and invaluable). All those services together are what is called a "self-guided" tour. (Add a guide and you've got a touring-company-style tour.) This is pretty common. You just need to pick a region and start looking for places that rent bicycles or run tours. I can't tell you where to go, but I liked Burgundy a lot. |
