An intense trip that allows to appreciate the wines with all your senses, directly by the producer by smelling and tasting the wine and feeling the terroir directly on your skin cycling among the vineyards.

Three easy itineraries, away from the car traffic as much as possible to discover three great wines: Valpolicella (with its older version of Amarone della Valpolicella), Soave and Bardolino and the beautiful landscapes of Valpolicella, the eastern valleys and Lake Garda.

The wineries are carefully selected basing on the quality of their wines and the beauty of the surrounding landscape.

Very enjoyable route with varied and stunning scenery throughout. Accommodation ranging from modern to traditional was very good providing a comfortable base for each night of our trip. Support from Itinera Bike and Travel was excellent throughout with all the team being very friendly and welcoming. Our main contact, Elisa, responded to any queries promptly. The touring bikes, panniers and accessories supplied were of very good quality and comfortable. The detailed road book (guide) provided for the tour was exemplary giving plenty of useful information about what to see, do and taste on route. We would certainly recommend this tour to others. We are already planning a return in 2025 and look forward to undertaking another Itinera Bike and Travel tour..

I was impressed with the Itinera team from my first contact with them. They provided personal service before and during our self-guided trip, supporting international clients while at the same time providing a local touch.

We really enjoyed the trip. The bikes were great and everything was well organized. Really like the accommodation in Verona and Trento. We found the owner of the winery to be a little unfriendly and far more interested in her other guests, who we assumed were buying wine! We would have like to have spent the first night in Bolzano and wondered why we weren't just put on the train in Verona with our bikes rather than driven to Trento. Francesco and his colleague in the shop were both very friendly and helpful. Top class service. We'd definitely recommend the trip to others. Thanks, Steve and Ric
