Rave Reviews:
Bordeaux to Dordogne

Dave Bowden

Whether you’ve been working at something for five minutes or five decades, it’s always nice to hear an encouraging word (or two). And thanks to our amazing travellers, we frequently find ourselves feeling very encouraged indeed. Check out what some of them have to say about one of our signature trips, Bordeaux to Dordogne Biking, and our Bespoke trips in the region.

“The varied routes on this trip were amazing: from riverside shady trails to serious hill climbing; from countryside roads through the vineyards to biking along valleys of historical castles. Combine that with coming home each day to an incredible hotel and meal? Perfect.”

– Jim Magil

“We love that B&R’s personable guides really add to the trip rather than just facilitating it.”

– Jane Santogrossi

“There are way too many wonderful moments to pick just one—or even 10! Every day was more memorable than the last.”

– Susan

“Arriving at our final hotel courtyard to a surprise celebration of confetti and seven bottles of champagne for one of our travellers, which we sabered off the top of in unison, was a personalized and thoughtful experience I won’t forget.”

– Tom Stanton

“My most memorable moment I think was our ride through the Dordogne Valley. It was truly beautiful and I wish we could have spent another day there. The accommodations were some of the nicest I’ve ever stayed in and I couldn’t wait to get on my bike each day… All in all, maybe the best vacation I’ve done.”

– Jim Condry

“The wine and food were excellent. We went on to Avignon and Nice but the highlight of the whole trip was the B&R experience.”

– Claudia Guy

“The accommodations were just great, each interesting in their own way. Perfect at the end of a great day of riding.”

– Jeannie Bailey
