We had such a great afternoon with Jean-Luc. The bikes were easy to ride and the route we took was not difficult and with very little traffic. We also had very enjoyable and informative gastronomic experiences. Jean-Luc was great company, he answered all of our questions and his knowledge, passion and humour made for a memorable day trip near Cognac. We highly recommend it to everyone who wants to know about Cognac and a historical, technical and artistic appreciation of cognac making.
The tour that gives you a little more….

Amazing day, perfect weather and a great tour of the region by Jean Luc. The bikes make sure that even if you haven’t really been cycling before it’s easy. Lovely stops at local businesses and obviously finishing with the local cognac producer where you get to sample the whole range of cognac’s. Jean Luc spoke perfect English and French and was very knowledgeable so all questions were answered perfectly and he was very kind and helpful to be with. Lovely way to spend a day in Cognac, but don’t take my advice.
Highly Recommend

Really nice ride around the area. Visiting and tasting balsamic vinegar as well as cognac farms. Very friendly and knowledgeable guide Jean-Luc. Perfect English explanations… The cycling part is doable for all ages that fit an adult bike and is done at a very relaxed pace.
I must do when you go to the cognac region!!

A wonderful experience, Jean-Luc Was an exceptional guide and knew all about the history. Went to our own pace, and the bikes were easy to use. We probably would’ve liked more drinking less riding. 🙂
First class tour in an historic and beautiful part of the world

Jean-Luc the guide has lived locally for about 20 years and, quite understandably, he clearly loves the area, His knowledge is vast of an intriguing place. The excellent e-bikes make the sometimes hilly route very easy for just about anyone. If you are in the region I absolutely endorse this tour.
