From the leaning tower of Pisa to the Ponte Vecchio bridge in Florence, this ride is paradise. You can't help but enjoy the view as you pedal across the lands of Leonardo, Puccini, Pinocchio, and of several other artists, sculptors, composers, inventors, and painters who were inspired by the beauty of the Tuscan landscape.
This tour is considered an easy to moderate self-guided tour. The routes run mostly on flat areas with some hilly parts, which can be accomplished without much problem with some cycling experience. In 6 cycling stages, you will cover 156/175 miles (250/280 km) which can be reduced if you decide not to bike on the days of double overnight stay in Lucca and Montecatini. Most of the path is on asphalted roads with low traffic, however some parts are on a dirt bike path but not demanding. All cities can be connected by trains with bicycle transport.
Hotel stays are in very comfortable 2, 3, and 4-Star accommodations with private facilities and are mostly near city centers.
