There are few better ways to fully immerse yourself in this land of light, history, and vine than this quintessential Tuscany bike tour. Find yourself gliding down lanes gilded by the Tuscan sun for seven glorious days, as we bring you unforgettable cycling adventures in this most fabled of Italian regions.
From the quaint town of Radda in Chianti to the photogenic landscapes of San Quirico D'Orcia, our biking tour through the magnificent Tuscan countryside has, as its backbone, the famed Via Chiantigiana. Literally meaning 'Chianti Street', this most classic of Tuscany cycling routes reveals the heart of the Chianti wine region in all its splendor.

Strolling its narrow maze of cobblestone alleys you'll make an amazing architectural journey. Explore delightful piazzas, intricate displays of masonry, and its superb marble cathedral, before climbing the Torre del Mangia, Siena's most famous tower, to enjoy its breathtaking views.

A lush and lovely lake to lake journey
The natural beauty of Switzerland is not taken for granted by the Swiss, and because of their respect for their nature, they have designed and maintained a very sophisticated system of hiking and cycling routes throughout the country. Starting in the German-speaking cantons of Lucerne, on the shores of Lake Lucerne, we begin our journey across Switzerland, passing through many quaint Medieval town centers. We’ll pass through the cantons of Lucerne, Oberwald, Berner Oberland, and Bern as we continue through the valley and lake regions surrounded by Switzerland’s majestic “Alps”. Our two night stay in the small but bustling capital city of Bern, still has many activities waiting for us.
We’ll then continue on and get absorbed into the French-speaking cantons of Fribourg and Vaud and… voilá, begin speaking French. After an overnight in the Quaint castle village of Guyréres, famous for her cheese, we’ll head over the hills of Jorat, overlooking the entire Lake Léman (Lake Geneva) backdropped by the snowcapped Alps, and finish our journey with a spectacular descent through the beautiful Unesco protected wine terraces of Lavaux, straight down to the lively lakeside town of Morges. The tour passes through eight of Switzerland’s 26 cantons and provides you with unmatched natural beauty, insight into the political and historical foundations, and an up close and authentic experience of Swiss contemporary culture. Because most of this tour is on bicycle paths or designated bike routes, we are not only utilizing, but also contributing to the sustainability of the Swiss philosophy of human-powered travel. We are excited to be guest/hosts in this beautiful country as ambassadors to help promote this way of life.
