A lovely and easy 3-hour ride along the bucolic Marne river and through the Bois de Vincennes.

Starting the Day: The meeting point for this tour is at the RER A station Le Parc de Saint-Maur in the town of Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, on RER line A. Clients will be given directions from their accommodation in Paris to this station. We begin cycling once you have arrived in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés (meaning, we do not need to bring bikes on trains for this tour). I will meet you with the bikes at the RER station.
-
Touring Time: 3 hours from the time we begin cycling upon your arrival in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés. However, the standard touring time can be customized to add additional touring time. There is a supplemental fee of €50 per hour (payable in increments of 15 minutes, meaning €12.50 per additional 15 minutes) if you wish to customize this tour to add additional touring time to allow you to enjoy this tour at a more leisurely pace (perhaps you'd like to stop at a café or pastry shop for a snack or a drink). Or, you may simply wish to do more cycling and experience more of the wonderful sites I could show than could be covered within the standard 3 hour touring time. Or maybe you'd like some combination of more cycling and some snack/drink/relaxing time. The choice is yours. You're the boss!
-
Touring Distance: Flexible. You cycle at your own pace and cover as much or as little distance as your desired cycling pace allows (or you may take breaks for pastries/drinks) within the standard 3 hour touring time limit.
-
Level of Difficulty: Easy. With the exception of a few minor inclines here and there, the terrain on this tour is fairly flat. Additionally, much of this tour will be on dedicated cycling paths (i.e. - on cycling paths not shared with auto traffic) and for those portions of the tour where we share the roads with traffic the traffic is very light.
Additional Per Person Costs: €6.40 (RER A train)
