You don't need to be on your bike to enjoy the passion, excitement and spectacle of the Giro d'Italia. As an Official Tour Operator of the Giro, we can also offer VIP Spectator (non-rider) experiences, from the start-line and finish-line VIP zones, to following the peloton in a car or helicopter. Join us for an extraordinary experience, right in the action.

You may wish to bring your non-riding partner to the Giro on one of the tours you’re cycling. Or you may be a non-cyclist who wants to see the Giro up close and personal. Either way, we can offer you or your partner some extraordinary experiences as a spectator.

Pick your stage – do you wish to be at the start line of the Giro d’Italia? Or do you wish to be right at the finish line at the top of the big mountain stages? Or would you like to follow the pros in a car as the peloton climbs over a famous col? And at all times being treated as a VIP?

Your personal and exclusive accreditation badge will be available for you at the Giro desk situated near the start or finish areas on the day of the race.  

Please note that this is for a VIP ticket only and does not include hotel accommodation or transport.

Follow the Race Experience - Car & Helicopter

Any Stage - €670 - €1,890

“Drive Experience” – following the race in a car just behind the peloton is nearly as exciting as being in the race itself, but not as exhausting. This package allows you to follow the stage in an official Giro car, as it races along the course with the crowds inches away. Includes access to the Start Area Hospitality, a boxed lunch, and access to the Hospitality Truck Leonardo at the finish.

Cost: €1,400 per person for all stages (not available for stage 2).

“Chrono Experience” – follow one of your favourite pro cyclists in either of the two ITT stages – 2 or 10. Includes access to the Start Area Hospitality and access to the Hospitality Truck Leonardo at the finish line.

Cost: €670 per person for stages 2 & 10.

“Drive & Fly Experience” – on some stages, a helicopter ride over the race is available. Includes access to the Start Area Hospitality, a boxed lunch, a VIP car ride during the race and helicopter flight; plus access to the Hospitality Truck Leonardo at the finish.

Cost: €1,890 per person per stage for stages 6-9, 15-17, 19 & 20.

Ride across the Finish Line

Any stage

You too can ride across the finish line just a couple of hours ahead of the pros and step onto the podium to wave to the cheering crowds! At Grand Tours Project, we reserve this experience for those who earn their stripes by joining one of our riding tours – whether by cycling at least three full stages in our ‘Ride Every Kilometre’ tour or participating in one of our ‘Experience’ tours. Join us for the ride of a lifetime, and let’s cross the finish line together!
