ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.

As Bonnie and John already said, the scenery along the Adige River was unparalleled. The actual riding was fun—the downhills could be exciting and the few uphills challenging (at least for a couple of us). The program’s educational content should be increased, but what was there was good—especially the excellent local guides in Merano, Bolzano, and Trent. Other highlights were tours of an apple production facility and a marble sculpting workshop, and the Lake Garda ferry ride. Giancarlo looked after all of us and delivered us safely to our destinations, all the while maintaining his good humor. Pam & Don, Roseville, MN

This tour took us through the most beautiful mountain scenery I had ever experienced up close (the top of the Alps!), along the most beautiful bike trail I have ever been on--dedicated paved asphalt biking/hiking trail covering 99% of the entire trip---and almost all downhill! Great lodgings, food, and guides along the way too! John and Bonnie McMillan
