About Andy Levine | DuVine Bike Tours + Cycling Vacations

MEET ANDY

Andy Levine knows how to live. He is an adventurer, a wine connoisseur, an ambitious cyclist, and a fearless traveler. His bike trips around the globe have informed his love of the good things in life and his conviction that in order to really know a place you have to know its people, its cafés, its villages, and its food. Andy founded DuVine in 1996 on a shoestring and a dream – to share his love of travel and cycling, and to inspire others to see the world with wonder and joy, to seize every day, and to travel to their highest potential.

When he’s not traveling, Andy serves on the international advisory boards of Air France and Atout France. He is a member of the Director’s Circle at Boston’s Institute for Contemporary Art and an overseer of the Boston Ballet.
