Top Vicenza E-Bike Tours

The Palladian Villas Owners Network invite you to immerse yourself in our Unesco Heritage, with an itinerary to discover at least 7 places of historical interest that Palladio's brilliance has made so unique that they deserve universal recognition. In Vicenza in the 16th century, a very wealthy city in its heyday, a genius architect completely changed the face of the city and the way of conceiving architecture, becoming a timeless model. An itinerant tale in art and history, in which Vicenza offers itself to your eyes as a unique Renaissance gem in every glimpse. The only tour in the city to include the famous villa La Rotonda (on request even outside visiting hours), reaching it with a relaxing ride on a Palladian E-bike, and a visit to Palazzo Valmarana Braga, a private heritage jewel of the Palladian Unesco Vicenza. The tour ends with a small exclusive surprise, only for our customers.

Leaving from Villafranca, just about 20 minutes away from Verona, you will admire beautiful landscapes and discover the most offbeat paths around Verona and Garda Lake. Our e-bikes are suitable for couples, friends and single travelers. We will cycle along the Tione river for about 45 minutes before getting over the top of Custoza hills, emblematic place of the ‘Sardinian Tambourine’ told by De Amicis in the book ‘Cuore’. Here we will visit a 200 hundred years old family-run winery and taste local Custoza wine paired with real homemade cheese, salami and bread. Delighted by stunning views of beautiful vineyards and the flat countryside we also can admire the Romeo & Juliet castle from the top. This is a true local experience along which we would like to let you feel the same passion for our land and local traditions.

For a sampling overview of Vicenza's suburban Palladian Villas and the fascinating history of the great Architect. A splendid self-guided E-Bike ride among bucolic landscapes and works of genius that marked the history of our Golden Age. Every place in Vicenza has seen the works of this brilliant architect come to life. In the streets of the center, cobblestones recall the steps of a young stonemason who came from Padua to build the new face of the city and its fortunate countryside. Just outside the urban area, among the stones and dust of courtyards in the making, Giangiorgio Trissino coined the most famous name in modern architecture: Palladio, who, like an angel with golden wings, came to shape the forms of a new culture. In addition to the Unesco heritage sites listed in the tour details, you will also be able to pass by and admire the Oasis of the Sources of the Bacchiglione River and the beautiful Villa da Porto Pedrotti and Villa da Porto Casarotto.
