The Giro d’Italia 2026 is calling! Ride legendary climbs, explore Italy’s regions, and celebrate cycling at its finest. Secure your spot today with our pre-booking offer and get first access when tours go live
The Grand Tours Project “Experience” tours follow the Giro route across the boot-shaped peninsula – varied landscapes and regional diversity, ancient towns, villages and cities, stunning national parks and gastronomic countryside. And then there are the Italians and passionate Giro fans who make the Giro d’Italia a festival, a celebration of life, love and cycling.
Our “Experience” tours let you ride 50–70/80 km of the same stage routes, just hours before the pros. Feel the passion of the fans, conquer Italy’s legendary climbs, and soak up the spirit of the race. Each year, we split the Giro into three week-long journeys plus the Grand Finale, so you can choose the region and stages that inspire you most.
Travelling with a non-riding partner? Our “Experience” packages include that option too — they’ll enjoy VIP access to the start or finish lines, explore charming Italian towns, and share in the excitement of the Giro from the heart of the action.
Pre-book now with a fully refundable deposit to secure your spot. Once the official 2026 route is announced, you’ll have first choice of your preferred week — whether it’s the Alpine climbs, Tuscan hills, or the final sprint into Rome. Spaces are limited, and early booking guarantees priority access before public release.
If you are up for a more challenging tour, you may be interested in “Ride Every Kilometre” of either weeks or the full 21 stages of the Giro 2026. Get inspired by browsing our Giro d’Italia 2026: “Ride Every Kilometre” Tours Pre-Booking.
