Biking tours on Sardinia: guided, self-guided and private

There's not just one way to go biking with Sardinia Cycling.

Why choose Sardinia Cycling for your bike tour?

A true chance to disconnect — with tours designed and delivered entirely in-house.
Sardinia is one of Europe’s most authentic cycling destinations — quiet roads, stunning landscapes, and a slower rhythm that lets you breathe. Unlike travel agencies or intermediaries, we design and run every cycling tour in Sardinia ourselves. What you pay goes directly into the quality of your trip — not into middlemen or freelancers. Every itinerary is carefully crafted at different difficulty levels, so whether you’re looking for a leisurely bike holiday or a challenging road cycling tour, you’ll find the perfect match.

Guided bike tours in Sardinia: few, but exceptional

We offer only a handful of guided cycling tours each year, led by our own in-house team — highly qualified professionals with international experience who also guide in Europe’s top cycling destinations. You’ll know your guide before you ride, and enjoy a tailored experience backed by local knowledge.

Self-guided cycling holidays: premium quality without compromise

Our self-guided bike tours in Sardinia are true premium products — designed, tested, and constantly improved by us. They save you time and money: creating your own trip often costs more, leads to planning hassles, and rarely delivers the same quality. With our easy-to-use electronic road books on the Sardinia Cycling app, you can plan your day perfectly and ride with total confidence. Expect meticulously planned routes built for excellence, not guesswork.

Private and custom cycling tours: fully tailored experiences

Every tour in our catalog can be turned into a private cycling tour, allowing you to ride with friends, family, or colleagues on your own schedule. For the ultimate experience, our tour designers can help you create a completely custom bike tour in Sardinia, tailored to your preferences, fitness level, and interests. This way, you can combine the best of our tested routes with your personal itinerary for a truly unique adventure.

Activity levels

Don't let the road decide for you!

A crucial step in choosing a tour is assessing your fitness level, deciding how much effort you want to put in during your vacation, and considering how much of your stay you’d like to dedicate to activities beyond cycling.

Sardinia Cycling has developed a simplified difficulty rating system to help you find the tour that best suits you. This system links daily distance and elevation gain, assigning each tour a specific difficulty level.

At the same time, we provide detailed information to help you make an informed choice, because making the right choice is essential for the perfect tour experience. It's so important to us that you choose the right tour that, if you have any questions, we invite you to contact us to schedule a session with one of our tour designers, available by phone or video chat.

Recreational

Enjoying Italian Dolce Vita
This is the level of choice if you occasionally enjoy a bike ride and you want to match biking and visits. The tours in this category need you just prepare with some training prior to tour. Average distance of tours in this category is 60 kilometers/day and 1000m/day gain in elevation.

Enthusiast

Earning a good dinner... by the sweat of your brow
Enthusiast level cover longer distances and add some more spikes in the elevation charts and more time in the saddle. Ideal for you who ride more than occasionally and are not afraid of some tough climbing. Average distance is 70km and average daily elevation up to 1500m.

Challenge

You're into cycling, and want to put yourself on a test
You ride quite often and you're in search of challenging cycling, including some good meters up. Distances are above 90km and average elevation above 1600m/day. The lower limit might look low, but remember that hot weather and (often) wind make a tough ride tougher.

Our hotels

Not just a place to stay

At SardiniaCycling, hotels are more than just a place to sleep. How do we select them? In areas with a wide range of options, we choose the best balance between location and services tailored to cyclists.

We prioritize four-star accommodations but can arrange upgrades upon request. In smaller towns, we select the very best available.

Our philosophy is that hotels should enhance the theme of the tour or the specific day, offering unique experiences. Some are historic farmhouses, providing authentic glimpses of Sardinian life and the unforgettable flavors of homemade local dishes. All hotels are carefully selected and reviewed annually to ensure you enjoy the best possible experience during your journey with us.
