Experience the Passion and Tradition of the Tour of Flanders
The Tour of Flanders is more than a bike race. It is a celebration of cycling woven into the culture and identity of Belgium. For one weekend each year, the roads of Flanders become the centre of the cycling world.
Our Tour of Flanders Weekend Tour gives guests the opportunity to experience the event from both the saddle and the roadside. During the Tour of Flanders Sportive you’ll ride many of the famous climbs and cobbled sectors that have defined the race for generations, including the legendary Oude Kwaremont and Paterberg.
Race day offers a completely different perspective. The atmosphere builds throughout the morning as fans gather along the route before erupting when the peloton charges past. Watching the world’s best riders tackle the same roads you rode the day before creates a connection to the race that simply cannot be replicated through television coverage.
With experienced guides, full ride support and carefully planned logistics, you’ll be free to focus on enjoying the riding, the racing and the unique cycling culture that makes the Tour of Flanders one of the most celebrated events in the sport.
Whether you’re a dedicated Classics fan or simply looking to experience one of cycling’s most iconic weekends, this tour delivers memories that last long after the cobbles have been left behind.
There are few places in the world where cycling means as much to local people as it does in Flanders. During race week the entire region comes alive. Cafés are packed with cyclists, flags line the roads and every conversation seems to revolve around the Ronde.
We love seeing guests ride climbs they have watched on television for years and then return to watch the professionals tackle the very same roads the following day. Standing on the Oude Kwaremont surrounded by thousands of passionate fans is an experience every cycling enthusiast should enjoy at least once.
The Tour of Flanders combines everything we love about cycling, challenging climbs, historic cobbles, incredible atmosphere and a deep connection between the race and the local community.
For any cycling fan, it is one of the most authentic and memorable weekends in the sport.

This is your chance to take on one of the most iconic routes in all of cycling: the Tour of Flanders Sportive. With thousands of fellow riders from around the world, you’ll line up and ride the legendary roads just 24 hours before the pros battle it out.
Starting with an early breakfast prepared by our hotel in Gent, we’ll head straight to the start line, buzzing with anticipation.

Lots of cobbles.
You’ll ride over the revered Molenberg, test your legs on the brutal gradients of the Oude Kwaremont and Paterberg, and grit your teeth as you tackle the Koppenberg, a steep, narrow, cobbled monster that has broken many legs and made many legends.
After crossing the finish line and soaking in the atmosphere, we’ll regroup and head back to Gent. Time to relax, reflect, and recover, with a celebratory Belgian beer, a big serve of frites and mayo, and a smile that says, “I did it.”

From the cobbled climbs to the fierce crosswinds, this race has crowned cycling’s greatest legends, names like Eddy Merckx, Tom Boonen, Johan Museeuw and more recently, Tadej Pogacar, who stunned the peloton in 2025 with a solo victory on the iconic Oude Kwaremont.
We’ll get you to the heart of the action, with prime viewing spots along the route and the electric finish zone in Oudenaarde, where fans roar and riders collapse after one of the most demanding races on the calendar.
You’ll feel every pedal stroke and be swept up in the spirit of Flanders; this is cycling at its rawest and most beautiful. By the end of today, you’ll know exactly why they call this the heartbeat of Belgian cycling.
