Tour De France 2025,
the Gourmet Way

Brittany, France’s northwesternmost region, is a hilly peninsula extending out toward the Atlantic Ocean. Its lengthy, rugged coastline is dotted with beach resorts such as chic Dinard and walled Saint-Malo, built on rock in the English Channel.

The Pink Granite Coast is famed for its unusual, blush-hued sand and rocks. Brittany is known for its abundant prehistoric menhirs (a type of megalith).

This heartland of France blends rolling vineyards, volcanic highlands, and medieval villages. The Loire Valley is famed for its castles and wines, while Auvergne is rooted in ancient volcanic soil, giving rise to robust cheeses and rustic dishes like Truffade and Potée Auvergnate.

A land of both elegance and earthiness, central France captures the slower pace of French country life, where tradition, terroir, and time-tested flavours take centre stage.

South-West France is a region of dramatic landscapes and bold cuisine. From the fortified medieval city of Carcassonne to the green hills leading toward the Pyrénées, this area is rich with culinary treasures — duck confit, cassoulet, and sheep’s milk cheeses reign supreme.

Influenced by both Basque and Occitan cultures, it’s a region where food is rustic, generous, and deeply tied to the land. Expect full-bodied flavours, slow cooking, and a touch of southern warmth in every bite.

This stretch takes you through the sun-drenched landscapes of southern France, climbing gradually toward the dramatic peaks of the Alps.

From the Languedoc’s lavender fields and vineyards to the Jura mountains' rolling foothills, this is a region where Provençal influences meet alpine traditions.

The cuisine is a meeting of light Mediterranean touches — olives, tomatoes, herbs — and heartier mountain fare like gratins, cured meats, and creamy cheeses. It's a transition zone that beautifully reflects France’s diverse culinary soul.

The Tour de France concludes in the world’s most iconic capital: Paris. Known for its grand boulevards, café culture, and gastronomic excellence, Paris is where all of France’s regional flavours converge.

While the Champs-Élysées hosts the final sprint, the city’s kitchens serve everything from flaky quiches and slow-braised boeuf bourguignon to delicate pâtisserie. A symbol of refinement and tradition, Paris is the perfect place to end this culinary journey — elegant, timeless, and deeply French.
