Road Biking Tours

We love guiding group tours, talking about the places we visit, answering to your questions with the knowledge of a local guide and helping to create a magical atmosphere in a group. We love making our guests feel so safe that they focus only on their riding experience. We love (and live for) the sad farewells – when our guests reward us by saying 'see you again soon'.

But we like also offering the great flexibility of self-guided tours, since - at SardiniaCycling - it assures also the greatest level of comfort, safety and local knowledge given by our extensive documentation.

ULTIMATE SARDINIA

GUIDED TOUR: € 1569 | SELF-GUIDED: € 869

North to south, and both west and east. Ultimate Sardinia is a challenging tour with long stages and relevant daily elevation and takes you from the northwest of the island (Alghero), to the very south (Pula) in seven unforgettable stages.

After many years, though, we realized that it was time to takle the challenge of putting together a route that includes even not all, at least most of our - and our guests' - favorite roads and areas of Sardinia in a single week of cycling. We've called it 'Ultimate Sardinia'.

THE MAX LEOPOLD WAGNER TOUR

Guided tour: € 1669 | Self-Guided: € 899
Bike in the path of Max Leopold Wagner, the noted Sardinia culture connoisseur. On this stage tour in the south of Sardinia, you will discover the history, culture and natural environment that fascinated Max Leopold Wagner. Specialized in Romantic languages, Wagner, a Bavarian, traveled – on a bicycle – to typical Sardinian villages at the beginning of the twentieth century to enhance his knowledge of the idioms of the island specifically and its culture generally.

THE GALLURA SHORT BREAK

Self-guided: € 680
North Sardinia is often identified with Costa Smeralda. This is wrong. In fact the touristic development of Costa Smeralda - the billionaire's paradise - added a totally new and non typical layer of hotels, services and businesses to northeast of Sardinia. While the Gallura area - the region that surrounds Costa Smeralda - is still very authentic and has preserved its old economy and traditions. For this reason, we find interesting to discover both faces of north Sardinia, the contemporary and turisty one as well as the ancient and traditional one.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's your usual support level on guided tours?

We have a strict rule since from the very beginning of our adventure: a six to one ratio, which means a riding guide every each 6 riders. Plus, a van that can keep about half riders. The van contains a mobile workshop, spare wheels, spare bikes (the number is chosen depending on the required sizes). We provide a quick lunch on the go (sandwiches, pies, juices, fruit) as well as bevareages. We have gels bars and electrolyes available on purchase. The van is constantly connected to the guide(s).

How do I prepare myself?

Our tours are suited to riders of different capabilities and fitness. For every trip you'll find the estimated fitness level (Recreational, Enthusiast, Challenge). Should you have doubt in the interpretation of that when selecting a tour, the best thing to do is getting in touch with our very experienced staff who'll be happy to help you assess if the tour you've in mind is suitable for you. As an approach, we do not sell a tour if we're not sure you won't enjoy it.

WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT US

Self Guided tour on Sardinia

What a great tour put together by the team at Sardinia Cycling. Australia is a long way from Sardinia - but it was worth the trip! The accommodation and food put together for the tour was fantastic. The logistics worked perfectly with luggage magically appearing...

S.P. Clark, Melbourne, Australia

Outstanding!

I have been doing cycling tours for almost 20 years in Europe. This is our first trip using a professional company and we could not be happier with the service, bikes, routes and overall trip. Hotels were good to very good overall. Food was excellent. Bikes were high end Canyon, many of which had Di2 electronic shifting.
