Island hopping at its very best.

Our tour begins with a relaxing cruise from Mainland Italy to the island of Sicily where we ride the great mountain road to Mount Etna.

A unique tour taking in the 3 best biking islands in the Mediterranean - Sicily, Sardinia, and Corsica.

These islands offer a fantastic combination of rugged mountains, canyons, passes, beaches, and spectacular coastal scenery.

Exciting riding on the tight twisty roads in an ever changing landscape of pine and chestnut forests, waterfalls, deserts, and incredible colourful rock formations.

We ride through wonderful picturesque villages tucked into small coves with their numerous private beaches.

Islands touched by many cultures through the ages - Romans, Venetians, and their ancient settlements and fortresses.

Ride through the mountains, snooze by the seashore, and take breakfast on the hotel patio overlooking the Med.

There is great French and Italian food and of course the sumptuous ice cream!

Riding is entirely on surfaced roads
