Reviews
The service and guidance at this shop were exceptional. We rented bikes that were in excellent condition, possibly new, at very reasonable prices. The owner listened attentively and offered passionate advice. The option to rent all models is perfect for me as I plan to buy an electric bike, and I will certainly return to Cycles et Cie in Vichy. The variety of models and brands, all assembled in France, enhances this shop's appeal. Their location at 44 rue de Paris is conveniently close to the train station and just two minutes from the city center.
We enjoyed an incredible tour today! Quentin was prompt and flexible in scheduling our tour, catering to our group's specific needs. Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also entertaining, ensuring we had a wonderful time. The tour was well-organized, featuring a picturesque bike route, a generous and delicious picnic (with wine), and a tasting experience that would have been impossible to achieve on our own. We explored diverse vineyards and gained insights into the local wines. The small group size allowed for personalized attention, contributing to our overall satisfaction. We felt it was worth every penny and would not hesitate to book this again. If you're in the Chinon region, reach out to Quentin for a fantastic day!

Neil turned this tour into an incredible experience. We explored three wineries, sampled around 20 wines, and gained insights into wine production and the region's history. Riding through the stunning French countryside was a highlight. I highly recommend this tour.
Quintin was fantastic, and we truly enjoyed this tour! He was not only kind and humorous but also deeply passionate about Chinon, its people, wine, and culture. Exploring the countryside by bike, surrounded by vineyards, while tasting wine and learning about its production made for a wonderful day in Chinon. We definitely recommend this experience!

Quintin was an excellent guide. Being a local, he's well-acquainted with the area’s winemakers and tailors the tour to suit each group. Our group included non-bikers, yet the ride was manageable, the scenery stunning, and both the wine and lunch were delightful. The conversation was great as well. I cherished every aspect of the experience! If you're considering this tour, definitely go for it. Highly recommended for all!
Fantastic experience. Quintin was an excellent guide with extensive knowledge of the area, making the day both engaging and enjoyable. This is absolutely something you should not miss in Chinon.
Our day exploring Chinon on bikes and visiting wineries with Quintin was exceptional. Riding through this charming town was enjoyable and straightforward. Quintin maintained excellent communication before the tour and greeted us warmly upon arrival, providing useful bike instructions for the less experienced riders in our group. His extensive knowledge of the local history and winemaking made him a captivating guide. He thoughtfully brought along a delicious lunch tailored to our dietary needs. We toured two organic wineries, where we received warm hospitality, thorough tours, and delightful tastings, along with water refills on a hot day. Quintin even took fun photos of us, which was a nice touch. We wholeheartedly recommend this tour.
