Looking for travel ideas for family vacations? France is a great family vacation destination and we are adding to our list of family travel options. Currently, we have a number of cycling and walking tours that are very family friendly. By family friendly what do we mean?

We realize that a family of adults as well as a family with children both very young and adolescent bring a variety of abilities and desires to a trip. Our cycling and walking tours can be accommodated to many. In several regions of France we offer trailers for small children, trail-a-bikes for larger kids, and individual bikes for children through teenage years. Depending on the ages and abilities, we can advise what the best solution is for your situation. Our walking tours vary in level of difficulty and we can advise what might be best to suit each family's needs including the arrangement of transfers, and or support vehicles. We have had elderly family members come along to and instead of cycling or walking we have arranged transfers and vehicle rentals to meet up with the family as they explore the countryside.

Some links to clear family friendly programs:

Champagne Cycling Tour - stay in one location and do loop rides out and back

Gordes Provencale Cycling Tour - one location with loop rides

Brittany and Mont St Michel Cycling and also Hiking - both trips go between St Malo and Mont St Michel and offer relatively easy cycling days over flat terrain, beaches add fun for kids, and the impressive site of Mont St Michel is a favorite for any age.

Custom ideas: Families of more than 6 persons may want to have their own custom programs. We are happy to work on a proposal in function of your desired riding per day, level of accommodation, and duration of trip. Just contact us at the info above to have us quote.

Paris offers a variety of family experiences. One challenge for families can be the cost of lodging as many small hotels do not have rooms capable of lodging 4 or more persons. We have a variety of modern apartments fully furnished and staffed to meet this need. Contact us with your family's intentions and we can quote you a great vacation or refer you to a better source if we can't do it.
