How to use it?
1. I choose my Pass: 24 hours – 48 hours – 72 hours depending on the route and the offers that interest me.
2. During busy periods, I check bike availability with rental companies in my departure city, whether that's Tours, Amboise, Blois, or Orléans. It's best to book by phone 48 hours before you arrive.
3. I activate my Pass as soon as I use the first service. The duration of my Pass is counted from that moment.
4. I enjoy the Pass offers as I wish.
5. At the end of my Pass's validity, I return my bike to the rental company in my departure city or one of the three other cities proposed.
