27 June - 17 July 2010Italy is reputed to be the home of road cycling and is internationally renown in the great cycling races. For the rare breed of cyclist, touring the continent is the pinnacle of sport and there can be no better way to appreciate the delights of Italy than with Italia Spring Tour. Riding along the amazing Italian roads in the warmth of spring and summer, you will fully experience all that Italy offers. Our specially chosen tour routes will take you through picturesque vistas of medieval villages with winding cobbled streets, ancient vineyards and fields of sunflowers. During our rides, you can soak up the local culture with stops at pretty cafés for your coffee of choice and a Panini with local prosciutto, whilst marvelling at this country’s ancient history. Off the bike, we include a number of rest days for tours of surrounding towns and cities, wineries and attractions. As well as the opportunity to see some of Italy’s spectacular cities, we will also be taking in some history and art. If your non-riding partner wants to join you on the tour, that's not a problem. They can relax in the comfort of our air-conditioned vehicles enjoying side tours when you're in the saddle. After a morning ride, you are free to spend the rest of the day together. As Italy is as much about food and wine, you will be able to sample the regional specialities. In each region, we will schedule one dinner where the group can opt to eat at a local Slow Food restaurant. All other dinners are supplied and will include primi, secondi and dolce prepared by selected restaurants. You supply the bike - we'll take care of the rest!
