Ride with us on an electric bike for an exciting day trip! Leave the usual tourist routes, discover an unseen face of Rome, and reach a pearl of the Castelli Romani, Castel Gandolfo.

We will start by cycling along the Via Appia Antica, a ribbon of stone winding through centuries of history, which connected Rome to the rest of the Empire. Immerse yourself in the magical atmosphere of the Roman countryside and listen to the stories of legionnaires, emperors, and travellers, you will seem to hear the echoes of the Roman chariots that travelled this road centuries ago!

Surrounded by monumental tombs, majestic aqueducts, and the remains of ancient villas, it will be like taking a trip back in time. The hustle and bustle of the capital is long gone, and as we pedal, we will arrive at an oasis of peace: Castel Gandolfo.

Here, the medieval village, the view of the crystal clear lake, and the Papal Palace, summer residence of the Popes, will surprise you with its beauty and authenticity. Tickle your taste buds with typical local dishes during your lunch break. Your guide will be able to recommend an excellent Osteria if you prefer a traditional meal, or other kiosks where you can sample more than a taste of authentic Castelli Romani products.

We will return to Rome comfortably by train, leisurely scrolling through the photos of the wonderful experience we have just had and enjoying the energy and vitality that these places have given us!
