Quick facts Race details, Date ...

Founded in 1948 under the name Tour Cycliste de la Guadeloupe, this elite men's competition opened officially to overseas racers in 1979,[1] changing its name to Tour Cycliste international de la Guadeloupe. Covering a majority of the island's territory, the race includes today a prologue time trial and eight to nine stages.

For 2005 to 2012, 2014, and in 2021, the race was part of the UCI America Tour, which is one of six UCI Continental Circuits ruled by the Union Cycliste Internationale, the international governing body for cycling. Since then, the race has been rated as a 2.2 event on the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) classification standards.[2] In 2013, from 2015 to 2020 and since 2022, the race has been on the UCI Europe Tour calendar.

This event is organized by the Comité régional de cyclisme de la Guadeloupe (en: Regional cycling committee of Guadeloupe).[3]
