Cycling cruises
Pleasant journeys down roads and well-trodden paths through maquis, pine groves, vineyards, and coastal towns
Do you like exploring by bike? Do you want to enjoy the sea and get to know a big piece of the Adriatic? Are you a curious person who likes to enjoy life? Then come with us for a bike trip on board a boat.
Where will our adventures take us? We’ll walk through ports that are just coming to life in the morning, and swim at nearby beaches. We’ll ride over hills covered with maquis and pine woods, through vineyards and olive groves, remote island villages, and picturesque port towns of historic importance. We’ll swim at the pebble beaches we encounter on our rides along the coast.
We’ll relax on board while en route and swim off the boat while at anchor in scenic coves and bays.
We’ll wander through old town centers whose history reaches back to antiquity. We’ll stop at traditional pubs to taste the local wine, seafood, and other domestic delicacies.
After a Mediterranean-style dinner on board, we’ll spend the evening wandering through the port, enjoying coffee, a glass of wine, and ice cream at seaside cafés.
