“Hi Monty.I just wanted to write and thank you for putting on such an amazing trip. Going into this, it was all about the physical challenge for me but it became clear after day 1 that this trip was so much more than just the cycling. Amazing weather, beautiful scenery wherever we went, fantastic people, culture, architecture, food and wine all combined with arguably the best cycling in the world, there is not a whole lot more to say! After seeing the tour a couple of times I was also very happy with our itinerary and the fact that this trip was about our bike riding adventure and not chasing the tour endlessly. A truly fantastic experience and one that I will return for again in a couple of years – maybe as my 40th present! Thanks again Monty.”

“The trip of a lifetime! Two weeks in France, following Le Tour, with Mont Cycling = Fantastic Holiday! Peter Montgomery, ‘Monty’, is an organised, helpful, entertaining, and gracious host. The destinations – Annecy, The Alps, Provence, The Pyrenees and Paris – are superb. The riding is hard and well planned. The food is incredible. The wine is better. The company was fantastic. And, all with a minimum of organisation on my part. Book a flight, do some training, pack your bike, and let Monty do the rest. You won’t regret it. Highly recommended!”

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and John for the most amazing experience with Mont Cycling Tours in France. I have only been riding for just over a year and came to France a little unprepared after a very busy work schedule, so I was a little apprehensive about riding up mountains such as Mont Ventoux! However with the support and encouragement of John and yourself I was able to accomplish some of the most challenging mountains in France. The scenery was simply breathtaking and as you know I stopped many times to photograph the spectacular views, picturesque villages and of course the amazing cars. From riding in Provence to the Cote d’Azur, and the Pyrenees, the trip gave me a great insight into the life and culture of these stunning regions of France. The food and wine aspect of the trip was incredible and the restaurants that you chose were first class. This is one of the most amazing life experiences that I have ever had, and I would highly recommend you to anybody looking to ride in France.”

“Thank you for a fantastic tour, it was above my expectations. You were well organised but managed to combine this with a relaxed good humored manner which set the tone for the trip.The accommodation was good and your choice of restaurants was first class. The riding was every bit as tough as I expected and at the top of the Aubisque, my legs had certainly had enough. The fact that I found the climbs hard makes it even more rewarding and memorable when I finally got to the top. For me, you got the riding just about right. Thanks again.”
