The Heart of ITALY

Renaissance Ride

A Motorcycle tour through Tuscany, Umbria, and Abruzzo offers a captivating journey through Italy's most picturesque regions, each with its own distinct charm and allure.

Characterized by rolling hills, vineyards, olive groves, and medieval hilltop towns we’ll be treated to panoramic views of the countryside that inspired countless artists and writers throughout history.

From the medieval streets of San Gimignano in Tuscany to the historic center of Assisi in Umbria, and though “little Tibet” of Abruzzo, its almost too much beauty to handle.

Renowned for their delicious cuisine, we will indulge in regional specialties such as Florentine steak, Umbrian black truffles, and Abruzzese lamb dishes all paired with a glass of world-class wines.

Central Italy might not be known first for its high mountain roads, but be rest assured that this region will surprise you!  With twisty passes of the Apennine Mountains, winding roads on rolling hills and pristine asphalt, there is no shortage of exhilarating rides to be had.
