Active vacations where you ride a bike
Bicycles are the perfect way to get around cities, nature trails and rural areas. They let you cover more distance than on foot, while still giving you time to look around, talk and see things the easy way. On Bicycle tours the tour operator usually provides and maintains the bicycle, plus takes care of your luggage in between accommodations. Distances of around 50km per day are normal, with days off.

Palermo is the capital of Sicily, the large island in the South. The people call themselves Sicilians rather than Italians. Palermo is known for the large cathedral, Sicily is known for wine, olives and ... the Mafia (~movie The Godfather).
There are very few cities in the world with as much history, historical buildings and artifacts as Rome. A great example is the Colosseum... But Rome is not just history, it is also the political capital of Italy and offers great eating places and places to watch-the-world-go-by.
Siena is an old city with a magnificent square. Once a year horses have a race around it. Movies (like James Bond) are frequently recorded here. As in many Italian cities there is superb ice cream here!
