At the beggining, La Bicyclette Verte is a cycle rental with the ambition of discovering, by bike, the magnificent Regional Natural Park of the Marais Poitevin. The largest wetland in the West of France is full of treasures and the founders of La Bicyclette Verte, Danielle and Pierre Alain, believe very much in the tourist potential of this region.
These hopes are quickly justified. The quality of the cycling infrastructures and the beauty of the landscapes are attracting ever-increasing numbers of customers and making La Bicyclette Verte the essential rental company in the Marais Poitevin.
Pierre Alain and Danielle fall in love with cycling holidays. By taking the tracks of the Marais Poitevin, they find themselves on the Atlantic Coast to enjoy, at their own pace and that of their 3 children, the treasures offered by La Rochelle, Marans, Rochefort ... It is from this very moment that is born the idea of ​​organizing cycling holidays for everyone!
After having designed its own circuits to discover its region, La Bicyclette Verte offers them to customers from several European countries. It's immediate success! French, Dutch, English and German travel the paths of the Marais Poitevin and the Atlantic coast with La Bicyclette Verte.
