Italy

From Mediterranean climate and culture to alpine mountains the long history, diverse geography, charming people, and of course wonderful food make Italy a top destination! Add the culture of cycling and you will not only be welcomed but respected when you come to tour by bike or on foot!

In Italy, we focus on some of its finest regions, including Umbria and Tuscany but also Puglia. Coming soon: The Dolomites! The climate is great, the sites are many and of course awe inspiring. Tuscany itself is unrivaled as a cradle of all-time art. One can find examples of every age and style. The cycling is challenging in Tuscany as the most important scenic villages we pass are perched on hilltops such as Pienza, Montalcino, Siena, and you can visit Castellina, and go to Florence at the end.

In Umbria, you traverse a similar terrain with perched villages but can also enjoy superb examples of Etruscan civilazation, Roman remains, and examples of Renaissance works as well. In Umbria you will visit Castiglione, Perugia, Assisi, Todi, and Orvieto.

In Puglia the cycling and climate changes again; and the unique architecture and of course the clear turquoise waters of the sea add to the unique charm!
