San Gimignano E-Bike Tour; A Ride Through Tuscany’s Timeless Landscapes

Discover the Magic of the Tuscan Countryside and the Iconic Towers of San Gimignano

Step back in time and explore the breathtaking landscapes of Tuscany on this exclusive e-bike tour along the Via Francigena (that goes to Rome). Following one of Italy’s most historic pilgrimage routes, this journey blends nature, history, and adventure in a way that no other experience can. The day begins in Gambassi Terme, from where we’ll cycle along the famous Cornocchio Road, a scenic route offering breathtaking views of Volterra and its surrounding hills. Our path then leads into the natural wonder of Castelvecchio Park, an untouched woodland rich in biodiversity and historical ruins.

After an invigorating ride through rolling landscapes, we arrive at San Gimignano, the “Manhattan of the Middle Ages,” where you’ll have time to explore its charming streets, admire its skyline of medieval towers, visit the Duomo, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere of Piazza della Cisterna.

The journey continues to the Monastery of Cellole, a peaceful retreat with panoramic views over San Gimignano, offering a moment of tranquility before the final stretch of our ride.

To celebrate our adventure, we will stop at family managed winery for a well-earned Tuscan lunch and wine tasting, savoring the region’s flavors before returning to Gambassi Terme.
