Cycling in Sardinia

All breakfasts and two dinners are included.

Traditional Sardinian cuisine is full of local and delicious recipes. Popular specialities include roast suckling pig and excellent seafood. To help you avoid the more touristy restaurants, your local leader will happily provide you with recommendations.

To drink, you can seek out Sardinian wines, including vermentino, nuragus, cannonau and monica, and sample mirto, the Sardinian after-dinner liqueur made from the leaves of the myrtle plant.

Local bike hire

There will be a local leader cycling with the group and an assistant leader driving the support vehicle.

Transfers to and from the airport will be by private vehicle. On Day 5, we take a ferry to Carloforte and Sant’Antioco. While cycling, the support vehicle will carry your baggage and be available to assist or if you choose to opt out a section of the ride. A guide cycles with the group.

We use hotels and agriturismos (renovated farmhouses) on this cycling adventure. All accommodation is locally owned and family-run and the hotels have been carefully selected for their welcoming atmosphere and delicious home-made cuisine. Some hotels have a swimming pool, one is conveniently located near a beautiful beach, while others are in the quiet Sardinian countryside or pretty villages.

Examples of hotels we use are:

Cabras: Villa Canu or Aquae Sinis

Arborea: Hotel le Torri

Arbus: Agriturismo Rocce Bianche or Agriturismo Sa Rocca

Nebida area: Locanda L’Agusteri

Sant’Antioco: MuMA Hostel or Hotel Moderno

Teulada: Agriturismo Terranieddas (or La Grotta del Tesoro in Santadi)

Cagliari: Hotel Italia or T-Hotel or Regina Margherita

We can arrange single rooms throughout the trip (subject to availability). Please check with your sales representative for availability and prices.

Due to the layout of the accommodations, single bedrooms vary in size, and in the hotel in Cagliari they can either be double rooms for single use or standard single rooms, according to availability. Please be aware that some single rooms can be on the small side.
