Custom-tailored Bike Tours
What we do: Custom-tailored bicycling vacations in Northern Italy’s Veneto region.
Who’s this for: Everyone from those who rarely bike to avid racers have enjoyed their holiday with us. You need only to be physically fit and familiar with riding a multi-speed derailleur bicycle.
- Itineraries customized daily: instead of inflexible, prepackaged plans, we select rides day-by-day to match your interests and “state of being”.
- Fixed base location: You’re not constantly on the move. Unpack once on arrival, forget about your luggage until it’s time to go home. If the weather’s horrible, you DON’T have to suffer on your bike, you don’t need to get anywhere!
- Starting dates every Saturday, May through September: you’re not limited to a small set of “departure dates”.
- We’re not tour operators just passing through: we live in the Veneto and know the backroads and special places which aren’t in guidebooks.
- We’re NOT in or near Tuscany! Too many visitors mistakenly equate Italy with Tuscany, so it’s overrun with tourists. The Veneto is still off the beaten track & unspoiled by tourism, home of many well-known bike & component manufacturers, and a cyclist’s paradise.
Where we are: Our perfect location near Bassano del Grappa offers an infinite variety of daily rides. As you can see from the Google terrain map at left, we’re at the border between the Venetian plains and the Dolomite mountains. Our headquarters are in the Brenta river valley, where the area’s most popular bike path is at your doorstep. After an exhilarating day of cycling, unwind on your own private balcony to savor the late afternoon sunshine as it illuminates the valley walls in rich golden hues unique to the Dolomite rocks which give the famous range its name.
Please email or call us in Italy before registering, as space is limited to at most 10 guests weekly.
