BIKE TOURS
The whole Europe by bike, in general one week’s travel, where the slow rhythm of the bicycle will let you taste every moment of your itinerary.

TREKKING
One week’s travel in Italy, Europe and North Africa at the rhythm of your steps. Trekking, not only as activity to do in mountain or hill, but also and above all as an alternative way, more human, health and interesting to visit places.

TREKKING IN NORTH AFRICA
The programs in North Africa are organised in collaboration with a French agency, availing itself only of suitably entrained local people, in possession of all the requirements to work safely. Going out of classic itineraries and entering deserts and rural zones, these travels imply you are adaptable, but you will be rewarded with amazing landscapes and incredible meetings.

WEEK END
Itineraries lasting a week end to keep fit and enjoy wonderful landscapes, cultures and foods of the hidden Italy, outside classic circuits. Many ideas to prolong the pleasure of cycling and trekking during the whole year.

HOTEL, GUESTHOUSE ETC…
We choose carefully all the hotels, the farm houses, the bed & breakfasts and the guesthouses where you are going to spend the nights of your holiday. We try to do our best to find characteristic arrangements, which are not too big, but with local architecture; in some destinations, however, we must use big hotel chains, as they guarantee suitable standards. What we always guarantee are bedrooms with facilities, suitable cleaning and a good quality-price relationship. For some trekking we use shelters and tents: some renunciations on comfort, but in return the discovery of very beautiful places, otherwise impossible to visit. In the technical sheet of each travel you will find clearly the details of the arrangements, fundamental information to keep in mind when you choose your travel.

MEALS
Our travel may include only breakfast, half board or full board. Dinners may be either in the hotel or in partner restaurant and include regional menus most of times. Lunches are always picnic. During some trekking meal are prepared by a cook at the shelter or at the camp.

LUGGAGE TRANSFER
In all our holidays, in order to let you travel quiet and without any weight on your shoulders or on your bike, we move your luggage from one hotel to the following. It is sufficient to leave your luggage at the reception after breakfast and you will find them at the following hotel in the afternoon.

People who choose a self-guided tour will be given a road book, with the detailed description of the itinerary, maps, useful information on the route and touristic information on the region you are crossing.

BICYCLES
You can bring your own bicycles or hire them when you make the booking. The bicycles on hire are generally 21-gear lady/gent city bikes and sometimes mountain bikes.
