The 105th Tour De France kicks off this weekend and is one of the most gruelling sporting events in the world, covering more than 2,000 miles through France. However, you don't have to be an elite athlete to cycle through this wonderful country. AmaWaterways offer plenty of opportunities for guests to explore on two wheels and are currently offering savings of 25% off selected Summer 2018 itineraries - meaning keen cyclists can explore for less.

AmaWaterways was the first river cruise line to add a fleet of bicycles on their European Ships, enabling guests to independently explore the historic Normandy coast, the rolling hills and vast vineyards of Bordeaux or picture-perfect landscapes of Provence.

For a more structured day, complimentary cycling excursions are offered to suit a range of fitness levels. Favourites include cycling past fairy tale chateaux in the Gironde Estuary, following in the footsteps of the Santiago Pilgrims & exploring the Saint Emilion and Pomerol vineyards.

Back on-board, guests can cool off in the whirlpool, enjoy a massage or simply relax and watch the world go by – while the ship transports them to their next cycling adventure.

The seven night 'Taste of Bordeaux' voyage departing on 23 August on AmaDolce currently costs from £2,449 per person (a saving of £683pp) in a Category D stateroom including flights from London and return transfers to and from the ship.
