I got two tickets to France for my Birthday/Christmas and I am planning on going to the TDF. I can only take two weeks off so I need to decide whether to go for the beginning of the tour or the end. I would like some suggestions from those that have gone as to the best way to watch the tour, transportation, places to stay etc…
You are probably too late to get in with an organized tour as most fill up in the fall. I’ve not done it on my own, but you need to decide pretty quick and then try to either get wait-listed on a trip or start making hotel reservations. Decide which stages you will see, then try to book something in the general vicinity (like within 50 miles).
