Italy Coast to Coast Cycling Tour with Sportive Breaks
Is there a better cycling tour than this? Starting on the beach in Cattolica on the Adriatic, we ride into the heart of Emilia Romagna taking in some of the climbs of the Nove Colli before heading to Tuscany with some gravel roads, rolling hills and sleepy hilltop villages. We finish on the Tuscan coast in time to watch the sunset with a glass of Prosecco. A perfect long weekend of riding.
Our Italy Coast to Coast Tour is a 4-night break riding from the sandy beaches of Emilia Romagna to the Tuscan Coast across Italy’s stunning interior. This small group ride is led by our expert guides & support vehicle. We all ride together on the flats and at our own pace on the climbs. Afternoons are spent relaxing with a couple of beers and some amazing local food.
We move around each night on our Italy Coast to Coast. Starting on the Adriatic coast in Cattolica, our hotel is a family run 4* hotel with excellent food. Moving onto the spa town of Bagno di Romagna our hotel has a great wellness area and even better food. Into Tuscany we stay out in the hills before the last evening on the coast. A mix of 3 & 4* hotels seeing the best of this part of Italy.

We arrive in the Tuscan gem of Siena – this evening is free for you to explore the delights of the town including the Piazza del Campo where the world-famous Palio takes place twice a year. Dinner is not included this evening.

A stunning ride through Tuscany travelling via Chianti & riding through famous hilltop towns including Volterra & San Gimignano. We finish before sunset on the Tuscan coast for a beer and celebratory meal.
