Sunday, Day 1
Florence
Welcome to Florence, the capital city of Tuscany. Meet your fellow travellers with a welcome drink and dinner in the evening.
Monday, Day 2
Florence - Viareggio
After collecting our Harley-Davidson motorycles from the rental office, we head westwards and pass Vinci (there's a museum dedicated to the famous son of that town, Leonardo da Vinci). We continue the ride through the Apuanic Alps with Monte Albano and stop at the famous Montecatini Thermal Springs with an excursion to the Parco di Pinocchio. After passing Lucca we cross over to the Tuscan Copacabana. We take a break in one of the beautiful beach cafés, ride alongside the white sandy beaches of the Versilia and spend the night in a historic hotel on the Viareggio seafront. Those who wish can enjoy the rest of the day on the beach, all others take a ride to the marble city of Carrara.
Tuesday, Day 3
Viareggio - San Gimignano
We leave Viareggio and head towards San Gimignano. We take a break in Pisa, where we experience the fascination of the once richest sea republic of Italy with her emblem the Leaning Tower. Then we climb through picturesque landscapes with cypresses and olive groves high up into the Tuscan hills to San Gimignano, a history laden medieval town, with reputedly, the most beautiful views of Tuscany.
Wednesday, Day 4
San Gimignano - Massa Marittima
Around midday we set off over wonderful hilly country towards Massa Marittima. We stay two nights in the centre of this medieval town.
Thursday, Day 5
Massa Marittima
Today is another highlight of our motorcycle tour in Tuscany. On one side is the Maremma, with a view of the island of Elba off the coast, and on the other side the Tuscan hill country. Water warmed to 32 degrees flows through the Thermal Springs of Saturnia, and we carry on through numerous, semi-abandoned mountain villages through the Tuscan highlands with winding roads you find in Tuscany only.
Friday, Day 6
