Yes. The route changes from year to year; some stages may start or end outside of France. It is quite common for some stages to start or end in Spain or Italy. This year (2011), stage 17 ended and stage 18 started at Pinerolo, Italy. In 2010, the Tour started in the Netherlands and the first three stages passed through Belgium. In 2009, the Tour started in Monaco and had stopovers in Spain and Switzerland. In 2007, the prologue to the Tour was held in London.
