Bellagio's Wild E-bike Tour - Tuesday and Thursday
Description
The Bellagio mountainside has special scenery that the average visitor doesn't get to see, unless you have a chance to bike it! Ride with us, up and away from Bellagio to explore the natural beauty of the countryside. Our tour travels over roads and paths that give you a local perspective. We'll keep an eye out for the local wildlife and other natural wonders. We'll do easy off-road sections and enjoy a picnic with local and fresh specialties once we reach a high pointwith a view and admire how far we've climbed! This ride follows our Ghisallo E-Xperience route with changes to see more of the "wild side". This tour is a good fit if you: * Can confidently ride a bike without assistance * Are comfortable riding on roads with occasional passing cars * Can maintain a steady, predictable line while cycling Out of respect for group safety, guides may decline a rider's participation if these requirements are not met. This would be considered a last-minute cancellation and is non-refundable.

This bike tour was a highlight of our entire 11 day trip through Europe! Even without ideal weather (chilly and super windy) we had an amazing time. My husband and I and our 12 yr old daughter enjoyed ourselves, despite some challenges as first time e-bikers. The traffic and intense climbs made it a little wilder than I would have preferred. I’m just not used to traffic, much less Italian drivers zooming around hilly curvy roads! The scenery over Lake Como is just out of this world. And the e-bike allows you to access areas you’d never see otherwise. Our butts were sore for a week. In hindsight I would’ve invested in a gel seat just for that trip to make it more comfortable! For those with kids, I’d steer toward the family ride instead of the Wild tour and you’ll skip some of the heaviest traffic areas.
Thanks for your review and so glad you enjoyed the tour! It's great that cyclists are a normal part of the traffic pattern over here so drivers are used to seeing bikers and sharing the road. Yes, the ebikes make our local climbs a breeze!
We loved our E-bike experience in Bellagio. The sites were so beautiful. The best part of our trip was our guide Gabriele. He was from Lecco, so he knew so much about the history of the area. He showed us maps of the lake, and explained all the important facts and history. He took us on a little hike, and he visited a cave nearby. He supplied us with a lunch afterwards.
Grazie mille! So you glad you enjoyed the tour, Gabriele is indeed so knowledgable!
Casey was excellent. So professional and helpful. Bikes all in mint condition plus a great choice based on your needs. By far the best bike rental business in Bellagio Thanks again for the great experience and bike route recommendations Kevin 🇮🇪
Grazie mille! We are honored! See you next time
Very friendly guided tour, you have to see the “cycling chapel”, 1000m of height difference and “Technical” descent without danger in wild places as you wish. Transport from the ferry to the store by the rental company.
Merci!!
This was one of the highlights of our trip. Gabrielle was an amazing guide and I would have him again ANY time. We saw parts of Bellagio we would never have seen otherwise and had a delightful lunch on top of Bellagio mountains with friendly cows. I highly recommend this trip and the E-bikes make it very doable for the more leisure cyclist. BOOK IT!
Grazie mille! So glad you had a great time and that it was your trip highlight! See you next time for another great ebiking adventure!
What a fantastic bike ride! Our family of 6 - some of us inexperienced riders - all enjoyed the challenge and breathtaking views of the adventure. We were surprised but excited for the ride up the same route taken sometimes by professional riders, but the e-bikes made it do-able and fun, including the off-road sections that allowed us to see and experience more. A wonderful picnic lunch full of Italian treats at the top in a secluded meadow. Gabriele was the best guide: helped and explained and gave us plenty of places to stop and take pics. A blast!
Grazie mille! It was great to meet you all (Bianchi family!) and take you on one of our signature local tours. E-bikes indeed make it fun! As does a picnic!
Stunning trip on good bikes, wonderfully designed route with spectacular views along the way and a stop at the Madonna del Ghisallo & cycling museum in Magreglio - way worth the work to get there. Gabriele was a splendid guide & tour leader, and the post-ride lunch - a very simple pizza with local olives - was just perfect for the celebration.
Thank you for very much!
