Why these parts of Italy? Well now, let’s see ….

Scooping gondolas and skyward-stretching campaniles. Redbrick crenulations and grey-green domes. Jagged Dolomite peaks. Vineyard hills, rolling as softly as the local language itself. Verona, Vicenza, Venezia, Veneto, each one their own frisson of excitement. Medieval arcades bustling with shoppers. Mario’s market boat on the water. A good glass of light Schiava sunshine, washing down fresh pizza on the piazza. Olive trees and magnolias on the mild, almost Mediterranean, Lago di Garda. The touching grace of lovers’graffiti under Juliet’s balcony and the freedom of freewheeling to Torbole. Romanesque cloisters and grand arenas. Fading shuttered facades in reddy-brown, green and white- somehow so elegantly Italian. Colourful glass gifts, fascinating frescos and the peachy sparkle of the finest chilled Prosecco.

Great places to stay…

Our Italian hotels have plenty of character from facades flowing with flowers or adorned with red and white shutters to 19th century neo-classical treats with elegant terraces, to bright modern proprieties in cheerful colours or with classy glass fronts. They are rated 4 or 3 star according to local classifications and some have pool facilities and rooms with balconies.

Making sure you get a taste of the place

Our hotel stays in Italy are arranged on a bed and breakfast basis but in our route notes, we point out great places to stop for lunch, a picnic, a refreshing glass of local wine or pleasantly chilled beer. We also give tips for evening meals, either at the hotel or nearby restaurants.

Good friends to support you along your way…

As much as we might like to, we can’t cut ourselves into pieces and welcome you personally all around Europe. In Italy, we work in partnership with local experts who share our commitment to quality, service and great cycling. Together, we ensure that the route notes prepared during our own latest experiences are up-to-date and that accommodation continues to meet our high standards. We are proud of our partners and delighted that you will be welcomed by friends.

Getting to the start of your adventure

We’ve been organising cycling holidays to Italy since 2008. Although there are constant changes in the world of passenger transport: we have knowledge to share about how to get to Italy by rail, ferry, tunnel or air. We are pleased to talk through all travel arrangements, including transfers from stations and parking for your vehicle.

For our selected tours, we suggest rail travel to Verona, Venice(Mestre) or Bolzano or flights into Venice, Treviso, Verona, Brescia or Innsbruck.
