The experience

The tour covers 25 km of white roads and vineyard-lined hills in the Val di Chiana, the flat valley that opens between Cortona and the southern Tuscan ridges. You ride an eBike fitted with powerful pedal assistance, so the rolling terrain stays manageable without the strain of a traditional bike. A local guide leads the route and adjusts it based on how the group is moving. The whole ride takes about three hours. Water and a helmet are provided, and technical support travels with you.

The route ends at a boutique winery where you can order wine tasting and a light lunch for €40 per person. This is optional and paid directly at the winery, not in advance. The eBike rental, guide, helmet and water are all included in the tour price. Groups are kept small to stay comfortable, and the operator asks that you contact them before booking to confirm you're confident riding a bike safely.

The tour departs with a minimum of four guests and requires confirmation 48 hours ahead. Tours are also available around Cortona itself and in Pienza if you prefer a different route. Child eBikes, child trailers and a trailer for small animals are available on request.
