Why Green Jersey?

We are often asked why we called our company Green Jersey Cycling Tours? Why not Yellow Jersey? To win the Green Jersey in the Tour de France requires continued excellence day after day and this is what we strive for (the yellow jersey can be won on the basis of one good day only); average and acceptable are not good enough in our books. We also like the green credentials of cycling, and the green of the countryside we ride through - people love our rural, traffic-free routes. More...

New route: Caen to Cantabria

Our new route for 2019 takes you on a round trip journey from Caen down through France and into northern Spain for a cruise back to Portsmouth. Enjoy some of the very best regions of France including Normandy, the Loire Valley, Poitou-Charente, the Cognac vineyards, Dordogne and Gascony before crossing the Pyrenees into Spain for the last three days to Santander. The Pyrenean traverse is not over the high mountains but there is an opportunity to climb the Col du Tourmalet should you wish! From Santander you can relax on the ferry and perhaps see whales and dolphins as you cruise home. Ferry travel back from Spain is included on this tour (cabin included). More...
