So whatever your choice of cycling attire from lycra to cinos, Tour de Vines will set you along the lavender scented paths in picture perfect rolling hills dotted with vineyards and a mountain backdrop in Provence, one of France’s most idyllic country villages. Tour de Vines, an Australian wine cycle tourism specialist has created three new cycling itineraries in Van Gogh’s romantic home where one can visit medieval castles, dine in incredible restaurants and sample the famed Chateauneuf du Pape wines, amongst many.
These three new programs Provence Roman, Provence Luberon and Tour de Provence complement the already popular 
Tour de Bordeaux and Tour de Loire Valley programs. There is something for every level of cyclist from easy to moderate to experienced with a wide range of departures beginning in May and continuing to October.

Sample the local food starting with a sweet Cavaillon melon or one of the classified goats’ cheeses accompanied with fresh figs or order a selection of tapenades in this Spanish influenced district. There are truffles, bouillabaisse and the local daube (beef casserole) finished off with ambrosia of the gods made by Chocolatier Joel Durand in St Remy or the master Nougatier Boyer of Sault might provide a lighter option.
Tour de Vines will immerse you in the environment and culture and especially in the traditional flavours that permeate Provencal cuisine and wines seeking out the road less travelled on inspirational cycling journeys.
