Each day was better than the last. Could not have been better. The bike fit to a tee. The paths were comfortable. Dinner in the Dolomites was a real treat.

A terrific tour with great sights, easy bike paths, lots of gentle downhills, great food and restaurant selections. We loved the castle tours and sculpture gardens. Just the right balance of city and country.
