EF Adventures Unveils Major Cycling Tour Expansion for 2026

Active tour operator EF Adventures has announced a major expansion of its Tour de France cycling tour collection.

The 2026 collection, made possible through the official partnership with sister brand EF Pro Cycling, features eight itineraries built around the world-famous cycling race — two of which are already sold out.

The experience includes insider access typically reserved only for team staff and sponsors, including the opportunity to ride official race routes hours before the peloton, cross finish lines, take podium photos, and celebrate alongside professional riders at exclusive post-race parties.

EF Adventures launched the Tour de France collection in 2025 and operated four biking and e-biking tours. The new expansion doubles the number of itineraries,

The tours range from eight to 10 days with group sizes of five to 16 travelers. Like all of EF Adventures’s cycling tours, the company provides equipment, with the option to upgrade to premium bikes and e-bikes.

“We’ve designed these tours so that whether you’re chasing the thrill of climbing legendary alpine peaks or enjoying the slower rhythm of medieval villages and lakeside rides, you get to be part of the Tour de France and Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift experience,” said Heidi Durflinger, CEO, EF World Journeys USA. “And through our ongoing partnership with EF Pro Cycling and Cannondale, you’re not just watching from the grandstands — you could be riding the same equipment as the pros, on the same routes they ride, and celebrating alongside them.”
