PRIVATE Hero E-Bike Experience - Cortona and Montepulciano Valley
Description
This experience follows the same high-level luxury format offered in Cortona, reimagined in Montepulciano and the Chiana Valley. Set among Tuscany’s rolling hills, the journey unfolds at a relaxed, immersive pace. Premium Trek e-bikes carry you through vineyards, olive groves, and medieval villages. While Cortona shows refined hilltown elegance, this experience reveals Tuscany’s authentic, expansive soul—quiet country roads, hidden corners, and timeless rhythms. Discover Tuscany’s hidden gems, panoramic vineyards, and medieval villages on a private, immersive tour designed for lasting memories. Led by a certified guide, you explore not just the landscape, but its history, traditions, and soul. As in every Hero-format experience, the journey concludes with a carefully selected lunch, a moment of reward, connection, and authentic Tuscan hospitality. Private, seamless, and deeply personal—where luxury is measured in meaning, not excess, and every ride becomes a lasting memory.

I wish I could give 10 stars for this beautiful, memorable, and unique experience with Roberto! While I originally found his e-bike tour through on Viator, once I booked Roberto reached out to me personally to discuss planning the day. I couldn't believe his kindness and how deeply he cared about making my family's experience so personal and special. When he found out it was my partner's birthday, he immediately started asking about our preferences and things we love, and suggesting even more unique routes than were offered on the website! He helped me to plan the most amazing birthday surprise for us and for my in-laws, who we were traveling with. Roberto thought of EVERYTHING - what we'd want most, things he could surprise us with along the way, accommodating everyone's physical comfort levels with the varying ages and experience with e-bikes among us. He even worked with the incredible team at La Braccesca winery to create a lunch and tasting for us...which somehow started with being offered beautiful coffee and bites upon arrival that morning. We felt like royalty...and somehow also like instant family. The care, the thoughtfulness...it's truly unlike anything I've ever experienced and means more to us than Roberto could ever truly understand. He was so focused on our family's experience the entire day. We learned about the history and plant life of the area, saw off-the-beaten-path sites we'd never even have known about without him, and he even saved me when I got my own pants caught in the bike chain (100% my fault) - he taped my pants up so it wouldn't happen again, and off we went! He even helped us choose other activities throughout our week that had nothing to do with his business! He does it ALL, and he does it with such love and passion. If you've made it this far, you know that my family will be grateful to Roberto and for this absolutely perfect day for the rest of our lives. We made the most beautiful memories, thanks to him. I also happen to be a travel advisor (something Roberto didn't know until after the entire day was over), and I will be sending any client visiting beautiful Tuscany his way! Grazie mille, Robi!!!!
Dear Leigh, Your words truly touched me. Thank you for taking the time to write such a beautiful review. Meeting you and your family was an absolute pleasure from the very beginning. What I love most about my work is getting to know the people behind each booking and creating a day that reflects their interests, pace, and way of experiencing Tuscany. I have wonderful memories of our day together: celebrating the birthday, sharing stories along the roads of the Valdichiana, discovering hidden corners of the countryside, enjoying the hospitality at La Braccesca, and yes… even our little bike-chain adventure! What made the experience special for me was seeing everyone enjoying the journey in their own way and sharing those moments together as a family. Those are the memories that stay with me long after the ride is over. Thank you for your trust, your kindness, and your enthusiasm throughout the day. Knowing that the experience became such a meaningful part of your trip is the greatest reward I could receive. And discovering at the end of the day that you are a travel advisor was a wonderful surprise. Your confidence in recommending me to your clients means a great deal, and I will be honored to welcome them with the same care and passion that I try to bring to every experience. I hope our paths cross again someday, here among the hills, vineyards, and quiet roads of Tuscany. Grazie di cuore, Leigh. A warm hug from Tuscany, Roberto
The day was perfect! We traveled on quiet roads with incredible views of Chianti. Roberto made the experience so special for us . We ended our day with a beautiful lunch at a winery in a private room. The entire day was a highlight of our month long trip in Italy.
Robbie and Sara were absolutely wonderful! They were so knowledgeable on the region, its history and the plants and wildlife that live here. Ample amount of times for breaks were given and the pace was set to our fitness level. Learning the history of the valley through sights, smells and interaction with the environment were incredible. The highs and lows of the valley and all they have to offer were covered in this journey. The lunch following the experience was just as pleasant and left us with fulls hearts and bellies. The wine was an added perk. 10/10 experience. Would do this over and over again.
Hi Madeline and Joseph, Wow, thank you so much for your wonderful words! I’m Roberto, and I’m thrilled to hear you enjoyed every moment of the experience. It was a true pleasure sharing the valley's secrets with you—your enthusiasm and curiosity made the day even more special. I’m glad you appreciated the break times, the storytelling, and the little touches like the wine at the end! Hearing that you’d do this journey over and over again truly warms my heart. You’re always welcome back for another adventure—there’s so much more to discover together! Thanks again for your lovely review; it means a lot to us. Warmly, Roberto & Sara
