Overview
Experience the rich history, culture and landscape of southern France on an e-bike! Have you ever ridden, heart pumping, wind in your hair, up to the gates of a medieval castle, rising from the earth on the tallest peaks, or from the face of a cliff? You can.
Imagine riding across a valley in beautiful weather, fresh air, and surrounded by native flora. You see a medieval castle off in the distance, looking like the lore and legends you heard as a child, only this is very real. You ride to the gates, and enter for a tour. Welcome to one day of an Athara Adventures e-biking tour.
During each ride, you will experience a variety of terrain on primarily double-track gravel, paved, and forest trails. You will see vineyards in a Mediterranean climate, then transition to forest with ancient gorges. You will experience challenging and rewarding rides each day, in addition to the experience of being immersed in local culture, eating delicious food, and drinking local wine while laughing and recounting the adventures of the day.

We will be in some rural areas, and there are shops and cafés that only take cash, so it is important to have euros with you when you travel. Generally speaking, €300 - €500 should be fine for the tour, but you can plan your cash amount based on your personal spending plans while you travel. We have found it simplest to purchase euros from your bank prior to traveling to Europe. Another option is retrieving cash from an ATM at the airport when you arrive in France, which gives you the best exchange rate on that day. Tip: Make sure you are aware of your bank’s fees for international withdrawals, as well as other credit card usage fees.

Athara Adventures strongly recommends that you obtain travel insurance. Depending on the type of tour that you have booked, Athara Adventures may also require that you secure or show proof of other insurance.
