Experience Tuscany from a single 4-star hotel base in Montecatini Terme. This challenging cycling tour takes you through hilly landscapes with cypress avenues and vineyards. Highlights include Monte Pisano with sea views, Pisa's Leaning Tower, the Mediterranean coast at Viareggio, medieval San Gimignano, Leonardo da Vinci's birthplace Vinci, historic Lucca, and a train excursion to Florence. Daily routes average 40-55 km on scenic back roads with some climbs. Includes transfers, train journeys, and outdoor pool access. Italy is an absolute dream destination, and Tuscany is one of its most beautiful regions. Gentle hills, vast vineyards, and sun-drenched olive groves line your route. After each stage, you'll get to indulge in local cuisine--think pizza, pasta, wine, and a refreshing spritz. Art and architecture are just as much a part of your cycling experience as the region's scenic highlights. This tour is based out of one hotel in Montecatini Terme, from which you'll head out on six day-rides to some of Tuscany's most iconic spots--including the Val di Nievole, Florence, Lucca, Vinci, and of course, the coast. Each evening, you'll return to your carefully selected hotel, handpicked by us. Active travel meets dolce far niente--so what are you waiting for! Tuscany, with its mild temperatures is perfect for a holiday away from the crowds of tourists. Even more so when you are travelling by bike! Take this chance for a summer cycling break until October. In total you will cover around 240 kilometres, all in the beautiful landscape of Italy's picture perfect region.
