Highlights of Venice Luxury Cycling Tour

Welcome to Venice, one of Italy’s most enchanting cities! Your hotel is located on the mainland, with convenient bus connections to the famous lagoon city. Spend your arrival day exploring Venice’s winding alleyways, picturesque canals, magnificent palaces, and lively squares. Wander through the historic streets and soak up the unique atmosphere before enjoying a scenic vaporetto ride along the Grand Canal, where you can admire beautiful views of the city’s iconic architecture and waterfront landmarks.

Begin your day cycling along the scenic bike path across the Liberty Bridge into Venice. From here, take a ferry to Lido before continuing your journey through Pellestrina, enjoying beautiful views of the sparkling Adriatic Sea along the way. Your route leads to the charming fishing town of Chioggia, known for its picturesque canals, historic streets, and rich Venetian maritime heritage. Take some time to explore the town and enjoy a delicious meal at one of its traditional seafood restaurants before settling in for the evening.

Before you start the stage, you should take some more time to enjoy the flair of the Venetian lagoon. The main route today follows the old river course of Bacchiglione, which was once used by cargo ships. When you arrive in Abano Terme, the beautiful thermal water pools that await you in the hotel will offer plenty of rest and relaxation.

Today’s route will once again follow the Bacchiglione, passing through fertile fields on the way to Vicenza. The city, which was made famous by the star architect of the Middle Ages, Palladio, is home to numerous mansions and palaces that are based on his work and still characterize the cityscape today. The Teatro Olimpico and the Basilica are a must see for every visitor, and there are plenty of beautiful places to sit for a cappuccino break.

From Vicenza, you will ride your bike on nice roads to Marostica, which is famous for its castle and the stone chess board in the main square. You are not far from today’s final destination of Bassano del Grappa anymore, with its covered wooden bridge and the famous brandy, grappa. In the Poli Grappa Museum a little Grappa tasting session is prepared for you.

In the morning you will cycle up some small hills, climbing to Asolo – an idyllic village of Roman origin – where you can stop for a break. Afterwards, the trail descends slightly and you will cycle into the region of the world famous Prosecco and further to Treviso with its many attractions.

The final day of cycling will bring you back to the starting point of your adventure by cycling along the River Sile to Casale, before heading back toward Venice. Your accommodation is located on the mainland before Venice, with an excellent bus connection to the lagoon city. Enjoy your last evening exploring the charming streets and picturesque canals of Venice, soaking up the unique atmosphere of this world-famous destination.

After breakfast, you will pack your things and bid farewell to the beautiful lagoon city of Venice for an individual departure.
