What to expect
After meeting at Corso Vannucci's iconic historic shop, you'll be fitted with a modern e-bike and briefed on the route. The ride itself splits between peaceful cycle paths and quieter streets, with your guide narrating Perugia's stories as you climb. The e-bike motor handles the gradient work, so you stay fresh. Once at the factory, expect a proper behind-the-scenes tour of production areas, the museum's exhibits on Perugina's heritage, and a seated tasting where chocolatiers walk you through flavours and techniques. You'll try recently made products in a controlled setting, not a rush-through gift shop.
