What Cycling Experience is

Tell us who you are. We'll handle the rest.

Cycling Experience builds days on a bike in Umbria around the people riding them. There's no catalogue to buy from: there's an itinerary that grows out of your group, your legs and the day you picked.

Stage 01 · Who rides

You don't need
to be in shape.

With us, people ride who haven't touched a saddle in twenty years, and people who already own a gravel bike. We set the pace around you, never the other way round: we ride out together and we ride back together, with a guide who knows every white road by heart.

You get there after the last climb and sit three abreast, legs dangling. It's the spot everyone photographs — and the only one customers mention in their reviews.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you want to know
about a bike tour in Umbria.

Answers to the most common questions about a Cycling Experience. If you don't find what you're looking for, just ask in your quote request.

What is a Cycling Experience bike tour?
It's not a standardised tour. It's a guided cycling experience tailored to the group: route, pace, stops and details are cut to fit those riding. An expert local guide takes you along roads chosen one by one, in areas of Umbria they know by heart.
Which areas of Umbria can I bike tour?
We operate in five areas of Umbria: Narni and Terni, Spoleto and Valnerina, the Martani mountains, Montefalco and Trevi, Montecastrilli and the Terni basin. Each area has its own character — pick the one that calls you, or simply say 'I trust you' and we'll suggest the right one.
Can I do a bike tour in Umbria with an English-speaking guide?
Yes. Our guides know the area inside out and speak Italian and English. On request we can arrange guides in other languages too. Mention it in your quote: we'll confirm within 24 hours.
Can I rent a bike (e-bike or pedal-powered)?
Yes, bike rental is an Extra you add to your quote. We offer latest-generation e-bikes and pedal-powered road or gravel bikes. The bike is ready at the meeting point, sized to fit you.
What fitness level do I need for a bike tour in Umbria?
We tailor the route to the group: the three service levels (Essential, Explorer, Signature) differ in care, stops and duration, but in all cases distance and elevation are calibrated to the riders' pace. Even those returning to the saddle after years can enjoy a Cycling Experience bike tour.
How much does a Cycling Experience bike tour cost?
The price depends on group size, the area you choose, and your service level. The quote is free and personalised: you receive it within 24 hours of your request. Only after you accept, you pay a 30% deposit online.
What happens after I request a quote?
Every request is read by a real person, in Umbria: here are the four steps between your submission and the day you get in the saddle. First you get a reply within 24 hours: a local guide studies your group, level and dates and comes back with your personalised proposal, in Italian or your language, no automation. Then you explore every detail on an interactive map: route, kilometres, waypoints, elevation, assigned guide, and you change whatever you like. You choose your extras freely — picnic, photo shoot, luggage transfer, bike rental — directly in your proposal, before proceeding to payment. Finally you pay securely online by card: 30% deposit to confirm, balance in cash on the day, free cancellation up to 7 days before.
What can I add or personalise in my experience?
The experience is ready, but if you want we tailor it to you: tell us what you need and we add it to your quote. You can choose a local produce picnic — a basket prepared at dawn with Umbrian pecorino, Norcia cured meats, Strettura bread and Montefalco wine, set up at a chosen viewpoint — e-bike or pedal-powered bike rental added directly from your proposal and ready at the meeting point, a local photographer who joins part of the route and delivers 30+ edited shots to the cloud within 5 days of your return, luggage transfer — bags, helmets, spare parts — moved from stage to stage while you ride light, or roadside mechanical assistance km zero: a mechanic reaches your location in 40 minutes max for a puncture, gears or a flat e-bike battery. Have an idea you don't see here? Write it in your quote — we almost always make it happen.
