Our
holidays are unique
You won’t
find anyone else offering the same holidays. We research the
best routes, based upon our detailed knowledge of the area,
and we provide detailed notes to guide you through each day.
The holiday notes also suggest ideas for exploring your holiday
region on days when you are not moving on between hotels.
It’s
all taken care of
On a Boots
& Bikes holiday, we do all the work. We leave you free
to enjoy your holiday without a care. We book hotels, flights
and train tickets and move your luggage from hotel to hotel.
There is always a Boots & Bikes representative nearby
to provide local support should you need any help.
Cycling
holidays in France
We offer
unique independent cycling holidays. We lend you a bike specially
suited to the quiet country roads, towpaths and tracks that
you may encounter. We do not use very rough or difficult tracks;
this is a holiday, not the Tour de France or a mountain bike
race. We provide hybrid bicycles that are comfortable and
easy to ride for keen and occasional cyclists alike. Your
bicycle will be cleaned and serviced ready for you to use.
The bikes are well equipped and all have panniers big enough
to carry your essentials for a day out in the countryside.
Walking
holidays in France
Our walking
holidays are independent and supported by detailed route notes.
We know that the best walks include a variety of terrain and
changing views. Some routes follow the Grande Randonnées
that cross France and are well sign-posted and often surprisingly
little used. In general, we avoid walking on roads but inevitably
there is some roadwork on quiet roads to link up footpaths
and to visit small towns and villages. The walks are suitable
for any reasonably fit person and often a choice of route
is offered to suit different abilities and tastes. There are
no sharp drop-offs and no scrambling. We have graded the holidays
in terms of the physical effort involved so that you can choose
the holiday that will suit you.

Choosing
a Boots & Bikes holiday
This website
contains full details of how to choose the Boots & Bikes
holiday to suit you. There are separate pages for walking
and cycling holidays in each holiday region. Each holiday
is described as accurately as possible and summarised in a
“Quick Facts” panel for easy reference.
Details
of how to book, prices, travel details, our terms and conditions
and a booking form are all included within this website.
The
Tour
Usually,
the holidays start and finish at the same hotel and you complete
a tour of the region moving from hotel to hotel. In general
you move on to a new hotel every second day. This gives the
holiday a natural rhythm; one day you move on, the next day
you stay put and rest or take an excursion to explore the
features of the area. The hotels are chosen for their individual
merits and all welcome walkers and cyclists. We avoid very
grand hotels where a tired and dusty client might feel uncomfortable
on arrival. Each of our hotels are very different but all
of our hoteliers will be pleased to see you.
