About this tour
Ride e-bikes through Val d'Orcia's rolling hills and cypress-lined valleys on this 3.5-hour guided tour based in Pienza, a Renaissance town. Small groups of 2–3 bookings pedal past golden wheat fields and terracotta villages while an expert guide shares the landscape's stories. The route balances effort with reward—electric assist means you climb without exhaustion, then coast downhill through some of Tuscany's most photographed countryside.

What to expect
You'll start in Pienza's centre and immediately head into open farmland. The e-bike motor takes the sting out of climbs, letting you focus on the view rather than your legs. Expect unpaved farm tracks, gravel paths, and quiet roads linking villages; nothing technical, but genuine countryside riding. Stops aren't rushed—there's time to breathe, look around, and let your guide point out the land's contours. The pace suits all fitness levels because the bikes do the heavy work. By the tour's end you'll have covered 30–40 km of Val d'Orcia without feeling flattened.
