France prepares for Le Tour by Cheap Flights Booker UK

Travellers will be heading to France this summer to experience an eagerly anticipated and highly popular sporting event.

The 2011 Tour de France will begin on 2 July at the Passage du Gois in the Vendee, a road that is submerged in water twice a day at high tide, but remains fully accessible at low tide.

People interested in seeing the Grand Depart can reach the Pays de la Loire region, which encompasses the Vendee, by catching flights to Nantes.

Visitors to this part of the country will also have the opportunity to see the second and third stages of the race, before the route heads into Brittany and Normandy.

The participants will then head south, riding through the heart of France towards the border with Spain, before going west for a stage in Italy.

Cycling fans can see one of the highlights of the entire race - the finish on the Champs Elysees - by catching flights to Paris and gathering along the famous avenue on 24 July.
