Itinerary Details

  1. Day 1Settling into Siena

    Tuscany is where your bike ride begins and it is in the medieval city of Siena where the group meets for the first time. Arrive here by your own means to a warm welcome from the staff.

    There will be a briefing about the trip with details of what you can expect. Your bikes will also be assembled and prepared for the action tomorrow. Finally it’s time for some excellent Italian cuisine and drinks before retiring for the evening.

    • Sangallo Park Hotel
    • Dinner
  2. Day 2Loop through Siena and Chianti

    One thing you can be certain of on this voyage is that the food will never fail to impress. After a splendid breakfast, settle onto the saddle and begin your ride. Siena’s streets are a delightful place to begin winding your way out towards Gaiole in the hills of Chianti. Along the way be mesmerized by the rolling hills, enchanting vineyards and scenic landscapes.

    Head for Chianti’s medieval capital, Radda. Amidst its quaint cobblestone and tall stone facades, enjoy a cup of cappuccino and cornetto, the perfect Italian snack! Feeling reenergized, hop back on the bike and continue riding through breathtaking views of vineyards and historic villages.

    With a day full of riding, wind down with a dip in the hotel’s swimming pool and prepare for a delicious dinner in Siena.

  3. Day 3Calm village life and peaceful nature accompanying every push of the pedals

    Start the day with another delectable breakfast. Settle yourself again on the saddle and expect another day of thrilling rides and fantastic views. Find your way towards Monteroni D’Arbia as you go through the less traveled and quieter secondary roads. Along the way you’ll pass through Val d’Arbia, renowned for its alluring landscapes.

    Heading for Asciano, you’ll also pass by the impressive Oliveto Maggiore abbey. This is cycling at its best, particularly when you breeze up and down between hills and cypress trees.

    The final destination today is Montalcino, known for its production of the Brunello wine. This wine is not sold before five years from harvest. After learning more about the wine, you’ll be treated to delicious local food and of course, some wine.

  4. Day 4Luscious landscapes and challenging ascents in Tuscany

    More unforgettable Italian towns beckon to be explored today. Riding through more peaceful backroads, you’ll soon find yourself in the unique Val D’Orcia. This region is the quintessential landscape of southern Tuscany with its cultivated hills bordered by towering cypress trees.

    It’s going to be a challenging morning as you deal with the descent from Montalcino to Torrenieri. The ups and downs continue through ancient villages but will be punctuated with a stop for a cappuccino or espresso.

    Lunch will be a fun affair as you reward yourself with delicious food at a typical trattoria. It’s the best way to recover your energy from the demanding Montalcino ascent which is 10kms (6.2mi) long and has an altitude of 500m (1,640 ft).

    To close up a fabulous day, dinner will be at a fairy-tale village.

    Eventually, you will enter the region of Lazio at Acquapendente. This historic spot is where you will rest your head tonight after another delightful dinner.

    Leaving behind Pitigliano the group heads for the calming waters of Lake Bolsena. This also happens to bring you back over the border and into the Lazio region. The eventual target for the end of the day is Civita di Bagnoregio.
