During the tour, you’ll enjoy some breathtaking Tuscan landscapes, places where most tourists don’t go. You will cycle past the ancient town of Pian dei Giullari, where Galileo lived!
Along the way, stop at a local farm* with beautiful gardens and orchard. Here you will also taste the delicious olive oil* and learn more about the process of olive harvesting and olive oil production. After this, it’s time to continue cycling along the picturesque country roads. A real Tuscan experience in other words. The last stop is at the church of San Miniato al Monte, or aka the best viewpoint over the city. A unique experience in the Italian splendour. There is, of course, plenty of time for photos.
