Why not? It's the bike paradise!

Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo Galilei were two examples of bike enthusiasts, the former having designed the first bicycle in history and the latter having studied the principle of inertia—proof that two wheels have always been part of the culture of our beautiful peninsula.

The beauty of travelling this way—and the reason why self guided bike tours in Italy are so special—is simple and practical: you won’t waste time looking for parking in narrow village alleys. Instead, you can stop whenever you like to take a photo, chat with a local at the village market, ask where to buy fresh bread or enjoy a good cappuccino nearby.

Try to engage, even if you speak just a little Italian—people will do their best to help you, and you might even receive an invitation for a late afternoon aperitivo in the village square, or discover a local brewery for a refreshing ale.

This is Italy. This is us: a land of bike lovers, inventors and warm hospitality. And you are benvenuto!
