The DIGnGO Story

Home / The DIGnGO Story

DIGnGO is a company offering luxury bike tours in Europe. At DIGnGO, we believe there is a better way to travel. A more valuable, less stressful way where you enjoy the benefits and enormous satisfaction of traveling under your own power. We’re passionate about it and our mission is to bring you the satisfaction of discovering the world on your own two wheels.

A Family Business

DIGnGO was founded in 2006 by two brothers from Burgundy, Flavien and Kilian Cassier. Flavien was a tour guide in France and Italy while Kilian was a student in Florida. Working from their bedrooms, they designed their first trip through Burgundy before creating 3 more adventures through some of the most popular destinations in France.

They called their company DIGnGO. The name was a play on the word dig “to apply oneself voraciously, vigorously or energetically” as well as the word go “to move from one place to another” and aptly reflected Flavien and Kilian’s mission “to bring you the satisfaction of discovering the world on your own two wheels”.

Over the next few months, DIGnGO launched several new bike tours in France, and that home-based company transformed into a small tour operator and led us to our first office: an apartment in Saint-Prex, Switzerland, owned by one of Flavien’s friends. One desk, two laptop computers and a beautiful view on the Lac Léman set the stage for those early days.

In the following years, DIGnGO grew rapidly — hiring trip leaders and creating bicycle trips in Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Holland, Croatia, Czech Republic and Austria. It outgrew the apartment and DIGnGO moved to its current office in Rolle, Switzerland.

With active and adventure travel more important than ever, we’ve decided to keep our strategy to what we know best: cycling. We’re always making adjustments to our tours and continue to design new biking trips. Although Flavien and Kilian are not leading the trips anymore and we’ve added many new destinations, our passion for traveling on our own two wheels has stayed the same.
