Cycling adventures that are custom designed with you |

Welcome to Lifesparkz Bike Tours!
I am Tina Baltzer, an independant bike guide, owner of this company and a fan of cycling!
Lifesparkz Bike Tours is a small company that started by offering custom made guided bike tours in Nice, France, by road bike or manual hybrid bike. Since 2016 I have guided hundreds of people around the roads in the Côte d'Azur with an aim to help others explore beautiful areas by bike.
To me, cycling is not a race, it is a way of being present in Nature, a way of exploring, a way of socialising, a way of getting to know your body and soul. Therefore it is important to design a tour for a person or a group based on their level of fitness and wishes for what to learn and discover.
The French Riviera and the Spanish Golden Coast
From 2024 I integrate new destinations for adventures with Lifesparkz Bike Tours as I offer cycling adventures by seasons to La Costa Daurada in Spain.

I am a Dane, who grew up in the Copenhagen area in Denmark. I got my first bike for Christmas as a 2-year old. My parents learned me how to cycle and I never stopped. I love cycling and know that a lot of you do too... sometimes all you need is a guide to show you the way - that is what I am here for. In 2015 I moved to the Côte d'Azur as I love the Nature here - and it is a heaven for cyclists. In the same period I have often travelled to Catalonia in Northern Spain and also love the raw Nature and kind people there.
My aim is to get more people to experience la Côte d'Azur and la Costa Daurada by bike. I know that cycling in an unknown area can be scary! You do not know the roads and traffic. I will be happy to guide you to get out of the city traffic and up those hills to explore life in the Mediterranean mountains.
I have been guiding bike tours since 2016, I speak English, Danish and French. I guide tours on road bikes (or manual hybrid bikes) at a pace of up to around 22 km/h (when cycling in mountains/ around 30 km/h on flats). If you need multiple guides for a bigger group, get in touch as I collaborate with other independant bike guides. You can read about me here: Tina

Challenging ride in the hills of Vence |
Our half-day bike excursion with Tina was absolutely wonderful. Tina was a friendly and accommodating guide, and it was a joy chatting with her throughout the ride. The bike route was absolutely gorgeous—it was mostly flat or downhill, with one hill climb at the beginning. Tina knew the route like the back of her hand, and she talked us through each step of the way. When we made our scheduled pit-stop in Villefranche-sur-mer, she even took us on a short walking tour of the village. Exploring the coast by bike with Tina was one of the highlights of our trip to Nice, and we recommend this bike excursion to EVERYONE!
