Best Foodie Destination: Bike Across Belgium
We were chosen as “Best Foodie Destination 2014” by Outside Magazine for our Bike Across Belgium cycling tour. Why? Simply put, there is nothing quite like biking through Belgium’s contrasting landscape of flatlands in Flanders and the rolling hills in French speaking Wallonia. It is truly a cyclist’s dream, and home to arguably the most scenic cycling in Europe.There are miles of bicycle paths that zig zag along romantic canals and wind their way between quaint towns, charming castles, outdoor cafés and incredible restaurants. This bicycle infrastructure, gorgeous scenery, delicious food and varied culture help explain why cycling is the country’s national sport.Select dates available. Book now!
Best Cycling Guide in the World: Marcello Bonini
We congratulate our own Marcello Bonini voted “Best Cycling Guide in the World 2014” by Outside Magazine. Marking his 17th year with Ciclismo Classico, Marcello has led over 100 tours. In celebration of this milestone, he has created a special signature trip!
“The Best of Po Valley” will combine his early cycling experiences – rides to “the big river” looking for fishing spots and old style Osteria – and the thrilling climbs to the ancient castles of Matilde di Canossa where the view embraces the ridge of Apennines. Add the excitement of a gran finale participating in a classic amateur cycling event in Italy, the 42nd Gran Fondo Cooperatori of Reggio Emilia.
Tour Date: May 26 – June 2, 2014. Don’t be left out! Book now!
Best Family Adventure
Family Vacation Critic named us one of the Top Ten Best Family Adventures for 2014. Our Family Funster tours are an excellent way to make worldly adults out of your children. Our Family tours give you the chance to cycle or hike with your outdoor progeny – long before they’re ready to vanish with the keys to the family car – to teach them a healthier way to get from place to place. Savor these priceless moments while you still can. After all, what child doesn’t like Italian food? Tuscan Fantasy is our #1 family vacation.
Call today to see about how you can join our July 28th Departure. Book now!
