Bike tours in Italy
Touring with a bike through Italy is cyclists’ dreams come true. Italy has a lot to offer, starting from its lavish past to the exotic beaches and the richness of the untouched nature. Who wouldn’t want to go there?
Having problems to decide where to go in Italy I did my own on-line search? To tell you the truth that caused me even more hesitation. After the long research I decided to offer you the next couple of tours trough Italy.
Campagna’s Cliento Coast. This tour will take you peddling through rocky roads and you’ll be able to see the sea. This part in Italy is protected as National Park (which means that there is a lot to see) and because of it there is a low frequency of people and tourists near by. It is 9 days long and because is a guided tour it will cost you around $4000.
This one I liked a lot because it felt a lot like home (because of the vineyards). Here you get to see the Monferrato wine country you get to climb Liguria’s Cinque Terre and Giro dell’ Appennino. Here you have an amazing view of the sea from Cinque Terre you go on the road through these vineyards all spiced up with amazing twisty descends and steep climbs. This is a guided tour also and it will cost you over than $4000.
But if you like the climbs more that I suggest that you think about this tour. You climb the Dolomates, where as the Italians say “God takes his vacation”. This tour is about 12 days long and it will cost you less than $5000 but it’s worth every penny of it. You get to see these wonderefull mountains, which you think have gone out from some storybook. You’ll get to see the bordering regions of Austria and Switzerland. Most important of all is that on this trip you have to wear as little gear as you can because the climbs are demanding.
Another suggestion is to go climb the West. Here you’ll be able to see the Italian Alps which are in bordering with Switzerland and France. In the west parts you’ll feat your eyes with the castles and fortresses. This amazing 11 day trip will cost you less than $5000 but it really does pay off.
I’ve given you some of my best suggestions you can do your own research and choose a tour that fits your pocket best. But what ever you choose believe me you won’t miss, I mean hey E ‘Italia, spacciare forte e mangiare bene.
