You'll spend two nights in the beautiful medieval town of Cahors that sits on a majestic bend in the Lot river. This area (Quercy) is well known for its black truffels, Quercy lamb and Rocamadour cheese so any meal in one of the town's many restaurants is likely to be a gastronomic delight.
The final ride of the itinerary leads you along the valley to the the visually stunning medieval village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, sitting on a bluff high above the river - a fitting finale to a great cycle holiday.
The daily rides cover between 40 and 60 kilometres along mostly level cycle paths and quiet rural lanes. The last couple of days are a little more undulating but nothing to strenuous and e-bikes are an available option if you prefer.
