The 3 trips that I have been on have greatly exceeded our expectations! Absolutely wonderful cycling trip with DuVine Adventures, everything about each trip has been top-notch.  Our guides were wonderful ­ knowledgeable, friendly and fun.  The cycling was fantastic, ­ we took advantage of the optional rides, and they were wonderful!  - Howard W., Hollywood , FL

Just got back from a great cycling tour in Provence .  This was my second trip with DuVine, and they always seem to make life so easy.  The service is outstanding which is very important, and I love the bikes and hotels they use - over the top vacation! - Susan L, Boston , MA

Pro's: Guides were attentive and accomodating; hotels were comfortable and had special features of one sort or another; bikes were well maintained; cool spa outing. Con's: Insufficient transport for group as only one van available for 'rescue's' during riding time; 'moderate' ride was challenging enough that some experienced men had to walk some hills; little or no time to explore small towns we rode through. - M. Stewart, Lafayette, CO

My wife and I have been on 4 DuVine trips, and have always asked our friends to come along!  ...The accommodations are always exceptional, the food is exquisite and extremely yummy, the guides are fabulous and take customer service to a new level, and the biking through the countryside with such extraordinary landscapes and sceneries are sensational and breathtaking.  - Kandestin, Gerry Montreal, QC

A week in Sonoma & Napa was just outstanding! Each hotel was handpicked and unique as were the individual wineries we visited.  Daily routes were 25, 40, or more and the maps/directions were very accurate. The lunches were great and each dinner excellent.  The guides were exceptional and made the trip!  Our group bonded and I'm quite sure we will meet again on another trip with DuVine.

Duvine Adventures delivered more than we expected in terms of service, equipment, knowledgeable guides, food and accommodations. I would recommend this company to anyone regardless of their level of cycling ability. They are able to accommodate those who cycle and those who do not. - Carol Petock, Richmond, Virginia

My son and I recently completed a five day bike tour through Provence, Fance with Duvine adventures. I had very high expectations for this trip and I was not disappointed. The guides were knowledgeable, experienced and very friendly. The accommodations were as described, upscale and unique. The bikes were easy to operate and easily adjusted. The food was described as exquisite and it was just that. Hearty breakfasts and gourmet picnics were provided and each night we dined in top restaurants that enabled us to sample local cuisine. My son and I are already taking about another Duvine trip . I would highly recommend this tour company to anyone considering a biking trip.

These guys are awesome, they left no stone unturned! The guides David & Kristen were great, the scenery through the Loire Valley was amazing and the food and the wine ... what can you say about French food and wine ... nothing but excellent!! - Maurina Duncan & Brian Hole , Port Moody, BC
