Terra di Siena Bike Dream

This self-guided biking tour takes you through the hilly region east of Siena (and southeast of Florence) offering classic Tuscan images at every turn: hamlets and hill towns, terracotta rooftops, swaying cypress, and golden valleys. The lovely roads that runs from Val di Chiana to the Etruscan town of Cortona and from Montepulciano towards Pienza are the main paths into the heart of central Italy. The roads we use are both paved and dirt. Climbing and descending the distinctively Tuscan hills, all your efforts will be rewarded by the perfect views that are nature's works of art. In each of the towns along this route, locals gather in the piazza every afternoon, walking in the "corso" (old town's main road), strolling with friends or looking for a good espresso. This simple way of life is Italy's best kept secret and your invitation to a fantastic self-guided vacation.
