    Massimo was an excellent leader and guide. He was kind, considerate of all... witty and always ready to share a laugh. The scenery, accomodations and food were superb. This was our second trip with this company and will be our go to from now on!

    There were many -cycling through the Dolomites on dedicated cycle lanes; going through small villages; lots of stops for gelato; interesting group & a brilliant tour leader, Fabio, who went over & above the call of duty.

    So many, the variety with nature and villages was perfect, got real sense of Italy outside of tourist experience. Taking us to small cafes, alongside lakes, having strudel, riding through vineyards past castles and monasteries, the route was magical. More than all, the group experience was so fun making new friends and being supported by all.

    This was simply a wonderful trip to the jaw dropping peaks in the Dolomites down to beautiful Verona and mind boggling Venice. The scenery en route was spectacular and varied. Our leader and guide Fabio was fantastic- he was upbeat; amusing; an excellent communicator and knowledgeable of the culture and geography of the regions in which we cycled. He was always enthusiastic and explained our trips beforehand in detail. Our group bonded very quickly facilitated by Fabio's excellent interpersonal skills. The accommodation was always comfortable serving excellent buffet breakfasts.
