Bike Tours in Italy

Traveling with a small group of fellow adventurers and Tuscany's leading biking guide, you'll enjoy a wonderful combination of nature, culture, cuisine and fun.

At the heart of this trip is the enjoyment of the fruits of Italian life and that means not only focusing on every meal being surprisingly delicious and learning about how and where the food is sourced and prepared. We visit local olive mills, wineries, cheese "pecorino" producer and "enoteche" to taste the best wine, gastronomy stores and discover the secrets of fresh pasta. Don’t forget the shopping! Fun rides, glorious dinners and a relaxed familiar setting, visits to museums, artists, craftsmen and women and of course observing the locals at the best cafes are the daily highlight.

Contact us at tours@cyclewest.com for more details. Full itineraries will be posted soon…

Hidden treasures of Tuscany

Tuscany the land of yearning: since centuries the former European cultural center holds its many visitors spellbound. This itinerary explores the treasures of south Tuscany as Montepulciano and Pienza and adds an unknown, wild and remote Tuscan region Maremma: the Wild West of Tuscany

Piedmont Wine Lover's Paradise

This gem of a tour combines the best of Italian and French cuisine and wine with scenic pedaling through rolling hills dotted with vineyards and castles in the virtually undiscovered region of Piemonte.  From alpine splendor to undiscovered villages and fortified castles and vine draped hills. Stay in elegant small hotels enjoying the local rustic food, Barolo and Barbaresco wines.

Mediterranean Flavors of Puglia

We present the Mediterranean flavours of Puglia in Southern Italy. This corner of Italy boot shaped is an exotic area due to Greek, Norman and Arab influences. We bike coastal roads through Adriatic fishing ports, then venture inland past olive groves, vineyards and grazing sheep. We enjoy country cuisine with abundant seafood, fresh vegetables, homemade pasta and outstanding bred pane.  Romanesque churches and local Trulli, traditional whitewashed houses with conical roofs.

Umbria the green heart of Italy

The delightful back roads take us through fields of flowers and olive groves to the picturesque towns of Orvieto, Todi, Assisi, Spello and Perugia. Cycle through truffle laden forests and vineyard covered valleys, rolling pastureland and fields of grain and indulge in the region’s hearty cuisine and wines as Sagrantino di Montefalco. Discover the area’s hill towns,  handmade ceramics, monasteries and enchanting valleys.

Sardinia Island

An ancient land with an ancient language Sardinia is a uniquely fascinating place, forged by many centuries of culture and history, in its strategic position at the center of Mediterranean, standing silently ever-present across the island, the enigmatic nuraghes: these round fortresses built in pre-historic times still survive
