The Grand Tour Italia is our signature road cycling experience—designed for those who want to ride deeper into Italy’s culture, cuisine, and countryside. Each stage links handpicked destinations with scenic, flowing routes that pass through historic towns, family-run vineyards, and unforgettable landscapes.

You’ll stay in distinctive hotels, dine on authentic local dishes, and experience the warm hospitality that defines Italian life. With full support and personal insight from our team, this is point-to-point cycling at its most elegant and rewarding.

Gravel Tour Italia is about going where the road bikes don’t. These five-day, off-road adventures blend rugged trails with refined experiences—combining compact gravel routes, high-quality gravel and e-gravel bikes (included), and full Volta support.

Ride through untouched landscapes in Umbria, Abruzzo, and Marche, where forest trails, white roads, and hidden villages tell a quieter, deeper story of Italy. This is gravel with soul: immersive, challenging, and unexpectedly beautiful.

La Bella Italia

Here, luxury is not showy—it’s soulful.

The way every road leads somewhere memorable, the quiet excellence of a family-run relais, the perfect pairing of a local red with handmade pasta, and a lunch that lingers into the afternoon.

With Volta, you don’t just ride through Italy—you live it.

This is the original Volta adventure—an unforgettable journey that spans the full width of the Iberian Peninsula. Over seven days and 1000 kilometres, you’ll ride from the Atlantic coast of northern Spain to the sun-drenched shores of southern Portugal.

Each day delivers a new landscape—from the jagged peaks of the Cantabrian mountains to the vast, open plains of Spain and the rolling hills of the Alentejo. This is a ride of scale and satisfaction, of rhythm and reward.

With full support from Team Volta, carefully chosen hotels, and authentic regional cuisine along the way, this event is more than a challenge—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience across two cultures, two countries, and one extraordinary route

The Trans Iberian condenses the spirit of the Iberian Peninsula into a powerful five-day journey, linking Spain’s historic heartlands with the golden landscapes of central Portugal.

Covering 600km, this ride balances challenge with cultural depth—passing through medieval towns, sweeping valleys, and remote villages where tradition still thrives. It’s a route built for riders who want to go far, but not fast—for those who seek immersion, not just miles.

Expect rewarding climbs, quiet roads, and evenings filled with local wine, warm hospitality, and the stories that make this region unforgettable. With full Volta support throughout, the Trans Iberian is your gateway to the quiet soul of Spain and Portugal.

España Auténtica

Here, the rhythm is different—slower, sun-soaked, and full of flavour.
Mornings begin with strong coffee and the promise of open roads. Afternoons stretch across endless horizons, while evenings bring warm welcomes in hilltop towns and shared plates paired with bold Rioja.
With Volta, Spain isn’t just a route—it’s a celebration of landscape, culture, and the joy of the ride.

The N2 Challenge is the original point-to-point adventure crossing the full length of Portugal along its historic Estrada Nacional 2. From the granite hills of Chaves to the southern coast of the Algarve, this seven-stage journey offers 738km of rhythm, scenery, and achievement.

Each day brings a new region, a new landscape, and a new table to gather around. You’ll ride through terraced vineyards, quiet cork forests, sun-warmed plains, and whitewashed towns—experiencing the essence of Portugal as it changes kilometre by kilometre.

With support from Team Volta and carefully chosen accommodations, the N2 Challenge blends cultural depth with personal satisfaction. This is not a race—but a celebration of progress, purpose, and the simple joy of crossing a country by bike.

Portugal Profundo

In Portugal, the beauty runs deep—through cobbled villages, sunlit valleys, and timeless traditions.
Mornings bring quiet roads and the scent of eucalyptus, while afternoons roll through olive groves and ancient towns. As evening falls, the table fills with bold flavours and Alentejo wines poured with pride.
With Volta, Portugal is not just a destination—it’s a soulful ride through the heart of the country.

Accommodation

& Cuisine

Where you rest and what you eat are just as important as the ride itself. That’s why we select hotels and restaurants with care—places that offer more than just comfort and good food. Expect a variety of beautiful stays: from stylish modern retreats to historic residences in the heart of town. Every one of them chosen for character, location, and genuine hospitality.

After the ride, meals are more than a reward—they’re part of the experience. From rustic family-run trattorie to elegant regional cuisine, dining on a Volta tour is a chance to discover the flavours that define each region. Wines are local, dishes are seasonal, and no two meals are the same. Whether it’s a long lunch mid-stage or a celebratory dinner in a quiet square, every table tells a story.

Our events aren’t just about cycling—they’re about savouring a journey. One ride, one meal, one remarkable night at a time.

You’ll find thoughtful touches throughout: well-timed refreshments, knowledgeable ride leaders, and the kind of on-the-ground coordination that turns a good ride into a great one. Our support varies depending on the event, but the principle is always the same: to make your experience seamless, safe, and thoroughly enjoyable.

A Day with Volta

What to Expect on Tour

No two Volta days are quite the same—but each one follows a rhythm that’s as effortless as it is rewarding. Whether you’re crossing a country or weaving through vineyards and villages, our tours balance movement, discovery, and comfort.

A Shared Start

Each morning begins with a relaxed breakfast. Riders usually roll out together around 09:00, guided by our experienced ride leaders who help set the tone for the day—steady, social, and well-supported. You’re welcome to ride solo, but we prefer to keep riders in small groups where possible. This allows you to benefit from the insight of your guides while riding at a comfortable pace—and ensures that groups often arrive at key stops together, sharing the experience both on and off the bike.

The Journey Unfolds

Our routes are designed hotel to hotel, with each day revealing new landscapes and a renewed sense of progress. The support crew stays one step ahead—preparing feed stations or working with our trusted cafés, trattorie, and restaurants to ensure a warm welcome. Over the years, we’ve built lasting relationships with local communities, and that spirit of hospitality is woven into the journey.

Paced by Pleasure

You can race if you like, but the pleasure of the ride is always our priority. Whether spinning through olive groves with friends or climbing to a panoramic hill town, your day moves to your rhythm. By mid to late afternoon, most riders arrive at the next hotel, where your luggage is ready and relaxation begins.

Evenings Together

After the ride, the mood shifts. A refreshing shower, a glass of something local, and a table shared with fellow riders. Group dinners are included and rooted in the region’s culinary traditions—long meals, good wine, and stories exchanged over unforgettable flavours.
