WESTERN SICILY CHEF BIKE TOUR
MAY 3 - MAY 9, 2026
Sicilian Cuisine: A Feast for the Senses in a part of Italy like no other.
Sicilian cuisine is unmistakably Italian, yet entirely its own.
Shaped by centuries of cultural influence, from Phoenicians and Greeks to Romans and Normans, its flavors tell the story of a rich and diverse heritage.
Positioned at the heart of the Mediterranean, Sicily draws culinary inspiration from both the Middle East and North Africa.
With Tourissimo, you'll ride through rolling hills draped in vineyards, along dramatic coastlines kissed by aquamarine waters, and into ancient towns where time seems to stand still.
Ride from the lively energy of seaside markets to the blooming countryside, where May paints the fields in vivid hues.
Each day in the saddle brings a new discovery, from quiet country roads that wind through citrus groves to seaside routes with sweeping views of distant archipelagos. Sicily's diverse terrain offers just the right mix of challenge and reward, perfect for cyclists who crave beauty, culture, and authenticity in every mile.
Join us for an unforgettable journey where relaxed pace cycling meets Sicily’s rich culinary traditions, ancient history, and breathtaking landscapes.
As we pedal through landscapes shaped by millennia of civilizations, you’ll not only witness Sicily’s captivating past, you’ll feel it. And with every stop, you'll taste it. With Tourissimo, you don’t just visit Sicily, you ride into its heart.
E-bikes are available, but you must reserve yours in advance.
Joining us is chef, pitmaster,
and author, Hugh Mangum
