Vincent was a great guide! He would stop occasionally so we could pause and enjoy the views. He would also always prepare us for the difficult biking parts and I am amazed at what I was able to do! The loop we took was very beautiful. I highly recommend biking with Vincent.

Vincent was an excellent guide and also made sure we were all very comfortable on our bikes throughout the ride. He took photos and videos for us during the trip. It was a fantastic way to get out into the Cezanne countryside and was a highlight of my stay in Aix. Excellent value for money, I would highly recommend this tour!

Vincent was a magnificent guide! A gentleman who loves what he does! Make sure you agree on plans if separated from the group.

Monday 4th June. Met the group and our guide Vincent, given a good briefing, good emphasis on safety, and then off. After 20mins, on tracks leading up to and around mountain. The weather was livy for this, plenty of time for photos. Great commentary from guide about Cezanne, his life and paintings, a bit on Picasso who lived nearby, marble quarries, fossils. Not rushed, plenty of safety comments from Vincent, overall a wonderful day.
Verdict - superb, tres agreable

Had a great experience. But, the trails were very steep and rough. Experience in mountain biking is definitely a requirement. I had biking experience on easy trails. Now, the e-bikes were definitely an asset. On a lot of uphill climbs I had gear selected in the lowest and assist on maximum. I was definitely huffing and puffing when I got to the top. I am a reasonably fit 68 year old male. My iPhone kept track of our progress. 29.5 km. And an elevation gain of 495 meters. Some parts of the downhill stretch, I had to walk the bike. Too steep and full of loose rocks.
Overall the scenery was fantastic with numerous views off the valleys. The guide was awesome with good info

Fantastic tour!! Colin is a great guide, very flexible for the interests of the group (we did a detour to some Roman ruins) and knowledgeable about the area and its history. Some comfort with riding bikes is probably advisable (although not technical MTB riding). Very hilly in places but fine on e-bikes. A real highlight of our trip!

I loved the experience and Vincent was so delightful and kind but this tour is not for people who aren’t experienced mountain bikers. He was a great guide and had lots of little facts about St. Victoire. I did not realize going into the tour that it required so much knowledge of mountain bikes (it is 3 hours of switching gears, going through narrow paths, and riding over little bridges/water). We did not end up finishing the full tour, thankfully it was just us on the tour that day. The mountain is a little rocky and challenging and I was hesitant so we made the executive decision to turn back, we turned around after we went up about 1/3 of the way. It was beautiful nonetheless and if you can do it, I would highly recommend. If you’re used to bicycling on flat roads, beach cruisers and spin — this tour is not for you.

Another epic ride with Colin, a great guide. The e-bikes were so comfortable. The trail through the national park had spectacular vistas and scenery. Some steep hills to climb but the e-bikes were a huge help.
