8-day Cycling Tour Tuscany with Charm

A plate of pasta paired with a glass of Chianti — a classic scene that could open any film about Italy. On a cycling tour through Tuscany, it’s simply part of everyday life. What truly captivates are the stunning landscapes, charming villages, historic towns, and the carefully chosen accommodations where you’ll stay on our delightful journeys. Your adventure begins in the spa town of Montecatini Terme, from where you’ll pedal through endless vineyards, scenic olive groves, and gently rolling hills. Along the way, you’ll visit world-renowned cities like Florence, Siena, and Pisa. Equally enchanting, though less famous, are the wine village Castellina in Chianti and San Gimignano, the iconic town of towers.

Highlights:

  • The museum of the genius Leonardo da Vinci
  • Cycling across the Piazza dei Miracoli in Pisa
  • The Chianti wine region
  • The breathtaking Tuscan hills

Tuscany is a breathtaking yet hilly region. Good fitness or an e-bike will help you tackle the daily climbs with ease. The stages lead you along charming country roads and quiet paths from one famous town to the next.

  • Day 1

    Arrival in Montecatini Terme

    Tour briefing and bike handover. Take your time to explore the surroundings before you hop in the saddle the next day. A leisurely stroll through the famous spa town is a perfect start—or perhaps a ride on the funicular up to Montecatini Alto?

  • Day 2

    Montecatini Terme – Pisa approx. 40-90 km

    The small medieval wine town of Montecarlo—where one of Tuscany’s rare white wines flourishes—lies along the route to Lucca (alternatively, you can reach Montecarlo independently by train). Cycling atop its nearly fully preserved city walls offers an unforgettable experience. The journey then continues to Lake Massacciuccoli, also known as Giacomo Puccini’s lake, boasting breathtaking views all the way to the sea and Pisa’s “Piazza dei Miracoli,” home to the world-famous Leaning Tower.

  • Day 3

    Pisa – Casciana Terme approx. 50 km

    The cycling route first follows the Arno River, accompanied by fertile fields. Next, you’ll pass through the hills of the Pisa region, where gentle slopes are dotted with sweet vineyards, juicy olives, and ripe peaches. Small medieval villages cling to the hilltops like swallows’ nests. With these enchanting sights, you’ll soon arrive at today’s destination, the spa town of Casciana Terme

  • Day 4

    Casciana Terme – San Gimignano approx. 55 km

    You’ll pedal through vineyards and softly rolling hills along picturesque paths toward San Gimignano, surrounded by the timeless beauty of the authentic Tuscan countryside. Just before you arrive, the iconic silhouette of the world-famous medieval towers will come into view. Once owned by noble families, these historic towers still define the town’s charming skyline today.

  • Day 5

    San Gimignano – Siena approx. 50 km

    The stunning Tuscan landscape along today’s route makes the occasional small climb barely noticeable. By the time you reach the fortified village of Monteriggioni, you’ll feel transported back to the Middle Ages. But the undeniable highlight of the day is the architectural gem that is Siena.

  • Day 6

    Siena – Castellina in Chianti approx. 40 km

    Enjoy great views over the vineyards on a beautiful mountain road. Take a break in the stone village of Vagliali and enjoy a good Italian cappuccino before cycling along a white road through vineyards and deciduous forests to Radda. Fortify yourself for lunch with a typical plate of pasta and savour the atmosphere of this village gem before the tour continues into the heart of Chianti to Castellina.

  • Day 7

    Castellina in Chianti - Florenz approx. 65 km

    The last day of cycling takes you over a plateau with great views and then hilly to Greve with its enchanting old town centre. The capital of Tuscany draws ever closer and you cycle comfortably on a long descent to the Ponte Vecchio. You are sure to have found your favourite Tuscan wine this week. Treat yourself to it again at the end of your trip in beautiful Florence.
