Day-to-day Schedule
Each day on this trip has been thoughtfully designed to strike the perfect balance between challenge, reward, and pure enjoyment. From leg-loosening loops to lung-busting climbs, every ride brings something different — with time to pause, soak up the views, and savour the culture along the way.
You'll be supported by our experienced Njinga team, ride in pace-matched groups, and enjoy fully guided routes with GPX files, van backup and recovery tools built in. Whether you're pushing your limits on Monte Grappa or toasting your effort at the finish line of the Prosecco Gran Fondo, you're in for four days of riding you won’t forget.

The Njinga Difference.
Most cycling trips feel transactional. Ours feel like family.
You’ll be welcomed like an old friend, fuelled like a champion, and supported like a pro. From epic climbs to espresso stops, and celebratory pasta feasts at the villa — this is what keeps riders coming back again and again.
"I made the best decision, from the minute I got off the plane the people were lovely and the atmosphere was so welcoming from everyone. The rides were hard but fun. And I felt I accomplished what I’d set out to do. The support by the ride captains was spot on."
