            Provence - Aigues-Mortes to Avignon

            Bike and Barge holiday

            E-BIKE HIRE AVAILABLE

            This holiday is well-suited to both normal bikes and pedal assist e-bikes and you can choose to hire either when you book your holiday with us. Confident cyclists will enjoy the boost from a battery for those cheeky climbs, and with less effort required on the bike, you’ll have more energy at the end of the day for off-the-bike activities.
