My dad and I had the time of our lives on the 2021 Tour de France trip. It exceeded our expectations! I am a recreational rider and my dad is 76 years old, and you were able to accommodate both of us without any problems at all. There were too many great moments to list all of them, but the following stood out to me:
• Climbing the Col du Tourmalet! This was honestly one of the best days of my life…to make it all the way up with cheering crowds and with people of all ages, nationalities and abilities alongside me…there are no words. And then to watch the pros climb up mere hours later with the beautiful Pyrenees in the background….it is something I will never forget.
• Watching the final stage on the Champs with delicious food, amazing location 50 meters from the finish line and a festive atmosphere – so fun!!
• The guides were amazing. Sandra was so wonderful to stay back with my dad and help him up the hills, and I learned so much from all of them. They were knowledgeable, encouraging, inspirational, funny and resourceful.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Custom Getaways to anyone, and the Tour de France tour is something every cycling fan should put on their bucket list.
