The Treasures of Tuscany

Tuscany is a veritable goldmine of fine art, fine wines, fine foods and extraordinarily beautiful country. Tuscany is classic Italy; an area of ageless beauty, loaded in culture and liberally flecked with vineyards and cypress trees. Visit stunning and significant towns like Florence, the unique walled 'city of towers ', San Gimignano, then there's Arezzo, Lucca, Siena, Pisa and Cortona all strikingly pretty with a sufficiency of historical artefacts in an area steeped in country charm.

It is simple to see why Tuscany is so popular with a varied range of travellers, there is the sea coast for sun worshippers, the mountain paths for walkers, sweeping hills for cyclists, Cultural artefacts for historians and Italian food, wine and hospitality for everyone!





Wine Area

Tuscany is one of the most aesthetically lovely of the world's wine regions and is the greatest, most original and most ancient producer within Italy. The major areas such as Chianti Classico and Montalcino, as well as less familiar, but similarly savory, wines of the area like Vernaccia. The extensive selection of grape kinds utilized in the area have helped determine the area's growing reputation.

Cycling holidays in Tuscany is becoming much more well-liked as personal recommendation spreads about the attractive scenery along the cycle routes. Open to all riders, female and male, of disparate ages and abilities, they are the centerpiece of the Italian cycling culture and the pride of each city.

For bike riders who would like to grasp what it is like to ride a stage race of the Giro d'Italia or a 1-day classic and feel like a professional, this is your opportunity to participate in a semi-competitive, semi-challenging 1 day cycling event. A Gran Fondo caters for a wide range of abilities and the emphasis is on taking part with customarily a range of 2/3 different length events, all on shock provoking picturesque routes!

Cycling in Italy actually is a joy and Tuscany should be the 1st port of landing.
