Mission & Philosophy The "Tourissimo Experience": Their mission is to design vacations that feed the "mind, body, and soul" by connecting travelers to a region's authentic culture, people, and traditions. 100% Italy Focus: Unlike many global operators, they focus almost exclusively on Italy (with occasional forays into neighboring countries). They have designed tours in all 20 Italian regions. Authenticity & Slow Travel: They prioritize "slow travel," taking guests behind the scenes and away from crowds to support local communities and economies. Core Services Cycling & Hiking Tours: They offer a wide range of trips including road cycling, gravel tours, and culinary-focused "Chef Bike Tours." Custom & Private Itineraries: About half of their business consists of custom-tailored private tours for solo travelers, families, cycling clubs, and corporate groups. Guaranteed Departures: They are known for guaranteeing most scheduled departures with as few as two guests. B2B Services: They act as a local partner (DMC) for other tour operators and travel agents, providing logistics, route scouting, and local guiding. What Sets Them Apart Local Expertise: The owners and guides are personally based in Italy, allowing them to vet every hotel, restaurant, and route. No Outsourcing: Every tour is designed and managed in-house rather than being handed off to third-party operators. Community Impact: They emphasize sustainable growth and beneficial relationships with the local Italian communities they visit.
Tourissimo is an Italy-based destination management company and tour operator specializing in active travel, specifically cycling and hiking vacations.
Explore enchanting, off-the-beaten-path routes in the Veneto region on this captivating tour. Two highlights at the heart of this journey (and that give this tour its name) are Grappa and Prosecco. By embarking on our Grappa and Prosecco bike tour, you'll uncover these hidden treasures and much more. History comes alive for us every day, starting with our warmup ride in the town of Cittadella, where the exquisitely preserved village center and fortified walls transport us seamlessly back to the Middle Ages. The riding is just as varied and dramatic as the history, from the challenging climb up the imposing Monte Grappa, to the hilly terrain of Prosecco with constant ups and downs that provide never-ending photo ops.
