Our group cycling tour is carefully planned to take in the best of Tuscany without feeling rushed: part of the joy of the Italian lifestyle is sitting and watching the world go by with a glass of wine in your hand!
During the week we ride through diverse areas of Tuscany, such as the hills of Chianti and the beautiful countryside around Montepulciano. Riding north, we enter 'Le Crete', a wonderfully scenic region that's home to some of Tuscany's best towns and villages.
We then enjoy Siena's magnificent Campo before biking past the towers of San Gimignano and onto our final destination in Florence.
Following country roads wherever possible, we mix point-to-point and circular rides to make a perfect cycle tour of this region.
