Your Cycling Holiday in Sardinia

E-Bike | Sardinia's Northern Secrets | Self Guided

On this self-guided e-bike tour, you'll ride through a classy corner of Sardinia that is frequently visited by royalty and a-listers.

Once a secret haven of the rich and famous, the Costa Smeralda is developing into one of Europe's premier destinations, with a fantastic array of hotels and restaurants nestled in its coastal towns and tranquil villages. The main attraction of the area has always been its picture-perfect beaches of soft, white sand and azure blue waters and this remains the case. But don't think for a second that this is all that is on offer here. The food, the wine, the history and the landscape itself are all fantastic propositions in their own rights.

We love

Riding amidst spectacular coastal views and between secluded beaches before a crisp glass of Vermentino post-cycle.
