Italy: Coastal Villages of Tuscany
Tuscany’s stunningly beautiful coast begs to be explored by bicycle, and we’ve mapped out our Tuscan coast bike tour to offer the most breathtaking experiences. Picturesque towns dot the countryside with a patchwork of colors, surrounded by cypress, cork, and pine forests that hug the azure waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Discover Etruscan and medieval history in magnificent hilltop villages and hamlets. Dine alongside gracious local hosts, enjoying seasonal, farm-fresh cuisine from their organic gardens. Sample smooth olive oils while learning about different pressing methods. Taste varieties of celebrated wines along the picturesque Strada del Vino. Finally, rejuvenate in the natural pool and springs of an Etruscan Calidarium. This is Tuscany, VBT style.
Tour Highlights
- Ride Italy’s renowned wine route, the Strada del Vino
- Savor a meal and learn how to prepare it with the founder of Cooking in Tuscany at her home
- Sample freshly pressed olive oil and enjoy lunch and a tour at the Fonte di Foiano olive-oil mill
- Cycle to 10th-century Suvereto via the breathtaking Etruscan Coast
- Rejuvenate in the Etruscan hot springs
What to Expect
This tour offers a combination of easy terrain and moderate hills, ideal for both beginner and experienced cyclists. Our VBT support vehicle is always available for those who would like assistance with the hills. The rides are almost entirely on paved roads or bike paths with a few short stretches in pine forests on unpaved, but even, terrain.
Long cycling days alternate with rest days so riders can pace themselves. No van shuttles are required and the villages we ride through are extremely quiet. This ride avoids some of the busier areas of Tuscany, so guests will never have to ride in traffic.

We had a group of 12 friends and family, we had best time. We just returned a few days ago and many of our group are already talking about where should we go on our next VBT trip.
The Tuscan Coast
Fabulous! Fantastic hotels, beautiful routes, and we loved the leaders, Marchelo and Franco! What pros! Funny, informative, so helpful and their love of Italy was infectious. And such a beautiful area! We really were glad we chose Ebikes! Wow, what a difference it made. We are in our 70’s and it was a breeze! Loved it!
