Cycling along quite roads

The Tuscan landscape is one of the most evocative and romantic in Europe with Cypress trees lining the roads, olive groves, vineyards, ancient hill-top towns and, of course, classic Renaissance cities.

Our two-wheeled exploration is carefully planned to take in the best of Tuscany without feeling rushed or over-cultural: part of the joy of the Italian lifestyle is sitting and watching the world go by with a glass of Chianti in your hand!

During the week we cycle through diverse areas of Tuscany, such as the hills of Chianti and the beautiful around Montepulciano.

Riding north, we enter 'Le Crete', a wonderfully scenic region that's home to some of Tuscany's best towns and villages. We then enjoy Siena's magnificent Campo before cycling past the towers of San Gimignano and onto our final destination in Florence.

Following quiet roads, we mix point-to-point and circular rides to make a perfect cycle tour of this region, without the need to transfer at the beginning of each day.

 

What makes this trip responsible?

Being on bikes, we can be quite versatile and are able to visit places that are not as easily accessible by other means of transport. We stay in locally owned hotels, so contributing directly to the local communities and our food on the trip is bought fresh at local stores and markets, helping to support the local economy and ensuring that our clients sample the local delicacies that Tuscany has to offer.
