VIP SPECTATOR CYCLING EXPERIENCES

I have always been a huge fan of cycling and been a rider all of my life. In particular, I love the Tour de France. My wife and I have our own small business, and it is understood that in July our work output will drop off as the Tour takes over our lives. To that end, it has been a long-time desire to see the Tour in person. We looked into doing it on our own, but never felt like we could manage to cover all the details adequately and still feel like we were getting the most out of our efforts to "see it all". That is why we decided to go with Thomson. Our tour trip provided us access to areas and aspects of the race that we never would have thought possible. We saw towns transformed before our eyes (as if by magic) as the "machine" that is the Tour de France rolls in, sets up, manages the race, then moves on to the next town. Something that you can't imagine from televised coverage. And finally, Jacinta and Martin, our trip tour guides, raised the bar every day and provided a level of interaction and excitement within our group that made each day better than the previous one. We could not have planned a more enjoyable trip. All of our expectations were easily exceed. It simply was......INCREDIBLE! Thanks, Thomson
