Welcome to Aquitaine Bike: the bike hire and cycling tour base in the Dordogne. We are located in the Perigord Noir, near the confluence of the rivers Dordogne and Vezere. The best way to explore the area is by bicycle. We rent 24-speed Cannondale and 24-speed Trek hybrid/touring bikes. These lightweight, high performance bikes are ideal for the country roads in the Perigord. We have 20 years of experience in the region and are happy to share our extensive knowledge of the area with you.

We can say without doubt that the best cycling conditions are to be found in the Dordogne: quiet country roads to suit all levels of riding, beautiful scenery, and one of the cleanest rivers in Europe to cool off in... La Dordogne. Weather conditions here are great for riding from April to November.

Since 2000, we have organized cycling tours throughout France and Spain and worked as consultants to U.S. and British bicycle touring companies. Alongside our bike hire services, we specialize in self-guided custom tours in the Dordogne. Our system and organisation of these cycling tours keep costs to a minimum. Check out our Touring page for details.

The Dordogne, or Perigord region, is a treasure of natural beauty, prehistory, history, architecture, and gourmet cuisine built around such delicacies as foie  gras, the  famous black truffle, walnuts, and  fresh strawberries. Magnificent feudal and renaissance castles, prehistoric cave art, quiet country roads linking charming honey-coloured stone villages, meandering rivers, and dense oak and chestnut forests full with deer and wild boar. This magical land will enchant you!
