Quad tour to the Capoliveri Mines on the Island of Elba
Another side to the island… waiting to be discovered!
Today, 5 September 26, my husband, my son and I tried out the quad bike tour at the Capoliveri mines. The morning was spent wondering whether the surprise I’d organised for my son would go to plan, I must say that in the end I enjoyed it too; we certainly would never have seen that road without this opportunity – partly because it requires permits, and partly because it isn’t tarmac-surfaced. What’s more, we learnt things we didn’t know about the island’s history. The tour doesn’t require any special skills, and the guide (Andrea) was very helpful, even with my son Lorenzo, who travelled back with him.

Quad bike tour...
A fantastic quad bike tour. A visit to the mines, breathtaking views, and stories and tales about the island of Elba. Highly recommended if you’re looking to do something a bit different and explore parts of the island away from the beach.
