French Alps Cycling tour operator Cyclomundo offers Valentine’s Day discount.

GAILLARD, GREATER GENEVA, FRANCE – Flowers and chocolates won’t cut it for some active couples this Valentine’s Day. For those folks, French Alps Cycling tour operator Cyclomundo is offering steep discounts on intimate, self-guided bicycle tours through France, Spain, Switzerland, and Italy.

Through Cyclomundo’s Valentine’s Day discount, cyclists can save 20 percent on their partner’s fare. This discount can be applied to all self-guided Cyclomundo tours booked February 4-26 (the tours can be scheduled for any date).
Dates for companion tours are fully customizable, so they can be timed around Valentine’s Day, a wedding anniversary, or any other significant date.

An intimate, self-guided experience

While many European cycling outfitters only provide trips led by guides, Cyclomundo’s self-guided philosophy allows cyclists to experience the country and culture of their choice on their own terms.

This approach produces a romantic atmosphere for couples, who can share an intimate experience and enjoy a trip that is truly their own while knowing they are never without help.
Cyclomundo provides cyclists with detailed maps and suggested itineraries, books all lodging and performs luggage transfers en route. The company’s staff work as an invisible hand on tours; they work to ensure everything goes smoothly for guests, but stay out of sight and out of mind unless their help is needed.

The company’s tours are available in France, Switzerland, Spain, and Italy. They are designed for riders of all ability levels, from those who want to test their mettle on sections of past Tour de France routes to those who would rather take a leisurely pace through the gardens and rolling hills of Tuscany.

A “jaunt” through the South of France for active couples

The Valentine’s Day companion discount applies to all self-guided Cyclomundo trips and is available for all dates, but the company’s guides have selected one trip in particular as the best option for active lifestyle couples.
Cyclomundo’s four-day “jaunt” through Upper Provence and Luberon is one of the company’s harder trips, and takes travelers through some of France’s most beautiful terrain.

Riders will travel anywhere from 37-48 miles each day over mountainous terrain, at one point making the climb to Mont Ventoux, one of the most famous climbs in cycling and a Tour de France classic climb.
The ride winds through France’s stunning Dentelles de Montmirail mountain range and visits three of the country’s most beautiful villages: Venasque, Gordes, and Roussillon.
Each night, travelers will enjoy the finest accommodations Europe has to offer – the four-star La Coquillade in Gargas, the Hostellerie du Val de Sault in Sault, and a former estate of the Marquis de Sade, Le Chateau de Mazan.

Full price for this tour is €940, or about $1,215 U.S. With the Valentine’s Day discount one member of a couple will have their rate reduced to €752, or about $970 U.S.
