Bike Hire Tarifs | Delivery | Logistics | Where we are
Bike Bus delivers your bike direct to your gite, hotel, or campsite in the Perigord Noir, Dordogne, France. Daily departures from Sarlat, Domme, Beynac, Montignac, or Castelnaud. Bike Bus delivers to your door or to where you want to start your ride and then we pick the bikes up from where you finish. We can deliver bikes to most of the Dordogne every day and all year round, from early in the morning to late at night.
DELIVERY IS FREE up to 10km from our hub at Castelnaud, so a delivery to Beynac, Castelnaud, La Roque Gageac, or Domme won't cost you a penny.
When you spend 100 euros on Bike Hire, DELIVERY IS FREE up to 20km from Hub #1 at Castelnaud, so a delivery to Sarlat, St Cyprien, Salignac, or Daglan won't cost you a penny.

For periods longer than a day, we suggest you have the bike delivered to where you are staying. You can reserve the delivery of your bikes, either :
A. 24-hour hire : From evening to evening or morning to morning and delivery can take place at your home, hotel, campsite or gite etc ...
B. 12-hour hire : From morning to evening for a delivery taking place at your home, hotel, campsite or gite etc ... or anywhere else that you choose.
The collection point doesn't necessarily have to be the same as the delivery point and we may also be able to taxi you back somewhere. Just ask when you reserve. The real advantage here, is that you can have the bikes delivered almost anywhere, and then you only need ride the route that you want and not do the getting there bit.

In July and August, DELIVERY IS FREE at certain campsites on the days and times listed below, whatever the amount spent. We visit the campsites every two days so if you were to keep the bike for two days, then there wouldn't be any collection fee either.
09h00 to 10h00 Camping du Garrit, St Cyprien on Monday Wednesday Friday
18h00 to 19h00 Camping Le Moulin de Paulhiac, Daglan on Monday Wednesday Friday
09h00 to 19h00 Camping Maisonneuve, Castelnaud on every day except Saturday
You must be resident on Moulin de Paulhiac and Camping le Garit to reserve a delivery there.
Take a look at our resources page for accommodation suggestions around our area. We deliver for free to the ones listed in yellow.
