What to expect
You'll meet at the office in Castellina in Chianti and set off on two wheels, climbing and coasting through vineyards and small settlements at a pace you control. The electric motor handles the grunt work on steeper pitches, letting you focus on the view. Midway, you'll visit a local winery to taste and learn. The ride winds down into a leisurely lunch at a quiet spot—Tuscan staples, proper wines, time to decompress. Expect six hours of intermittent pedalling, not continuous effort. Routes are modular: tell your guide whether you want mostly easy rolling or some proper hill work.
