Overview

This unforgettable bicycle tour traverses Tuscany and Umbria, two of Italy's most scenic regions where quiet country roads lead to historic medieval cities. This tour features great riding, fantastic scenery, comfortable lodgings with all breakfasts and luggage transfers included. Our tour begins in Assisi, Umbria, where the medieval flavor takes you back to the enchantment and mystery of the Middle Ages. The province of Umbria is known as the "Green Heart" of Italy and our route is surrounded by vineyard clad valleys and hillsides covered with olive trees. All of the accommodations were specially selected to reflect the warmth and hospitality of the region and provide a real sense of the living history of the region. You will have a chance to sample some of Italy’s best cheeses and most famous wines – the Brunellos from Montalcino and the bold Vino Noble from Montepulciano.
