About your trip

Sunshine, beaches, beautiful coastal towns and villages, backed by mountains to climb. We explore them all.


Liguria

 

Liguria (Italian Riviera) is famous all over the world for the beauty of its beaches and for its extraordinary climate all year round. 

Liguria is a land of incredibly varied panoramas, full of hidden wonders that are very often not found in normal tourist guides, plus a few mountains as a backdrop to climb.....


We will be cycling along parts of the coast line, plus venturing into some of the hills backing on to this coastline, spending much of our time in the wine region of Piedmont, Italy

Accommodation & Food

This is a small hotel holiday. Prices are based on sharing in twin rooms.
Single Supplement for this tour is £500. If opting to share, this must be with a friend or partner. If no one else is prepared to share with someone wanting a twin room, then the single supplement is payable. Ideally you should sign up with a friend to enable you to share a twin room. ACT is reluctant to allow strangers to share a twin room.
