Additional Information

The ‘Castello nel Cielo’ e-bike tour in Civita offers a one-of-a-kind experience. Starting just outside Orvieto, the journey passes by the historic Badia before ascending the plateau. From there, you travel from the ancient Collevento residence, through Canale and Boccetta, before reaching Bagnoregio, with just the soft whispers of the wind for company, which keeps the air crisp and refreshing all year round. The breathtaking views offered by these locations, featuring vineyards, olive groves, grasslands, and forests, are a feast for the eyes. You’ll pass traditional farmhouses and wine cellars where you can purchase authentic regional products. Words can’t do justice to the awe-inspiring view from the Civita lookout, it’s truly a sight that will leave you speechless. The village tour, preferred location for several film shoots, is a constant wave of wonder with its establishments, craft stores, scents, and essences…

The journey comes to a pause at the Terrazza Farnese Belvedere, presenting an magnificent view of the majestic and elegant cliff of Orvieto.

Best bike ride ever! - Pablo couldn't possibly be a better tour guide. My entire family enjoyed the experience and learned so much. He is wonderful with kids and his language skills are so impressive. Civica and Orvieto are wonderful towns. The best way to get around the countryside and take in its beauty was with the ebikes. We felt safe and cared for the entire time.

A perfect outdoor experience through Tuscany - Exactly how I pictured a bike ride through Tuscany to be. We were lucky that the weather was perfect. We met our guide, Paolo, in Orvieto. We then went into the country to pick up our e-bikes. We road for miles through roads less traveled. Once we got to Lubriano, the roads were a little more congested but had no issue navigating it with our guide in the lead. We visited the town of Civita which was a wonderful experience. After some time there, we road our e-bikes back then went into Orvieto for a wonderful lunch right next to the Cathedral. It is a restaurant serving family recipes and their own wine. It was such a wonderful experience and our guide, Paolo, shared so much history with us. It really enhanced the day. I believe anyone fairly comfortable on a bike could do this experience.

Perfect Day cycling through the Tuscan countryside - This adventure was one of our favorites on our 2 week trip in Tuscany. An absolutely amazing day riding e-bikes through the countryside from Orvieto to Civita. For one, the weather was perfect as we rolled through some less traveled roads. With the e-bikes, it is a fairly easy ride and each biker can chose to work as hard as they want to. From Lubriano for Civita, we were on more traveled streets but felt safe and it wasn't for long. Once you get to Civita, you walk into the city which is an absolute amazing city and experience. We then road back to the van and dropped bikes and headed to Orvieto for lunch. Ate a nice lunch which included local recipes and wines. With all that said, the real bonus was our guide, Paolo. He shared so much history with us and was very knowledgeable. Made the ride so much more interesting. To participate, you may want to feel somewhat comfortable on a bike but being e-bikes makes it doable for all levels. I highly recommend this full day adventure.

Orvieto e-bike tour - An excellent tour of biking, walking, seeing amazing sites and finishing up with a fabulous lunch at Cantina Foresi on the piazza facing the duomo. The two Paolo’s were very knowledgeable and fun guides!!

Great fun. Great value. Big success! - Paulo is an amazing guide. This tour was more than we had expected or even hoped for. So many great surprises along the way. Everyone was in agreement that it was a great experience and a great value. Beware though - make sure you work out the meeting location with Paulo in advance. Google Maps will take you to the center of town instead.

Perfect day - We absolutely loved this bike ride from Orvieto to Civita. The countryside was beautiful and we enjoyed learning about the different things growing in the fields from our guide, Pablo. Civita was very interesting. Such a cool city full of history. Lunch in Orvieto staring up at the duomo was the icing on the cake. I could have done this excursion every day! Highly recommend!!

A ride to Civita for experienced eBikers - In hindsight, we would have preferred a more leisurely meander through the country side. For us this was a bit long and rushed because the destination was 1.5 hours away. Our guide was personable, but not very attentive. We would have liked eBikes with a lower center bar, and more detail on how to use the power options. The lunch provided at the end of the ride, in Orvieto, was great.
