Full description
What do truffles, canyons and medieval villages have in common?
Our 7-hour guided Vespa tour of the Marche hinterland! Starting from Barbara, you will cross the Furlo Gorge, admire the Marmitte dei Giganti from above and visit villages such as Pergola, Frontone and Cagli. And in Acqualagna, the truffle capital, an amazing gourmet stop awaits you.
We are waiting for you!
What we will do
The rendezvous is 30 minutes before 9:30 a.m. in Barbara (AN), where the guide will welcome us and hand over the Piaggio Vespa Primavera 125, ready for our daily tour. After a briefing, we will be ready to set off!
The first stop will be Pergola, known as the City of a Hundred Churches: a village that preserves a rich cultural heritage and a timeless atmosphere. We will continue on to the Castle of Frontone, which dominates the valley from above and offers spectacular views. Here we will take a break to admire the surrounding landscapes.
The tour will then continue towards Cagli, a fortified village rich in history, until we reach Acqualagna, the capital of truffles, where we will stop to taste local products and a delicious gourmet crescia (not included).
We will get back on a Vespa to cross the spectacular Furlo Gorge, a breathtaking natural canyon. From here we will reach the legendary Marmitte dei Giganti (Giants' potholes), to be admired from above to appreciate all their beauty.
The journey will continue to Fratte Rosa, a picturesque medieval village famous for its ancient terracotta tradition. Strolling through its streets, we will breathe in the unique atmosphere of a craft that is still alive and pulsating here. Finally, we will drive along scenic roads through hillsides planted with vines and views as far as the sea, before returning to our starting point.
The tour will last about 7 hours in total.
