Mushrooms, chestnuts, honey... and many other Italian autumn delicacies will be the stars of this sumptuous week.

Plus it’s not just cycling as we offer a large variety of other activities to choose from - Yoga, Italian language lesson, cooking lesson, wine and food tasting and much more… there is something for each and every one of you!
