Italy Cycling & Biking Tours & Packages Tours & Trips

Highlights

• Immerse yourself in colourful cliff-side houses and a coastal paradise that makes the Cinque Terre region of Italy one of the world's most romantic destinations.
• Adventure through the area's most scenic trails on foot, including parts of the classic coastal route. Bike through gorgeous villages (the best way to cover ground) and take a kayaking trip on the sparkling Mediterranean Sea to a paradisiacal beach.
• If you'd rather spend more time relaxing on the beach, there's some flexibility to take a train instead of hiking – with a local leader and somebody to organize everything for you, you can choose your own adventure!
• Enjoy delicious Italian cuisine and afternoon aperitifs overlooking spectacular cliffs, iconic village views and the deep blue of the ocean.
• Discover a swathe of medieval marvels, such as the castle and churches of Levanto and the Abbey of San Fruttuoso.

Highlights

• Enjoy free time in Naples to kick off your adventure and maybe descend below the city streets to discover the famous catacombs or indulge in a traditional pizza in one of the many delicious local eateries.
• Discover the ancient Roman town of Pompeii, which has been frozen in time under the shadow of Mount Vesuvius. Explore the vast ruins, including the House of the Faun and the Temple of Apollo, then ascend the volcano and explore hidden sulphonic vents with a specialist volcanology guide.
• Hike along the Path of the Gods along the spectacular Sentiero degli Dei – one of the most scenic trails in the world – in picturesque Amalfi.
• Kayak along Amalfi’s coastline, soaking in the gorgeous scenery, sparkling waters and colourful architecture from a different perspective. Stop at the small beach in Santacroce for an aperitif and then paddle back in the warm afternoon sun.
• Explore the island of Capri – once a lavish retreat for Roman emperors – and see the mighty cliff faces, secluded coves, refreshing grottos and spectacular Mediterranean scenery.

• Retrace the steps of Leonardo da Vinci around his home city, Vinci. Surrounded by olive groves, your cycle will take you past Casa Natale di Leonardo then returns you to the village where you can explore at your own pace.
• Stay in picturesque Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, where you’ll spend your day cycling up and down the valleys, maybe stopping at the famous Fronte della Rocca for one of their cakes and coffees that have been enjoyed since 1885.
