Experience the 2018 Giro d'Italia from your saddle
Ride on the Giro course just before the pros: join us for the trip of a lifetime on the self-proclaimed "toughest race in the world's most beautiful country"
For the first time ever, a Grand Tour will start outside of Europe in 2018: on May 4, the Giro riders will line up in Jerusalem for a time trial, followed by two other stages through the heart of Israel and passing through its five most important cities.

You can be there with us! We have prepared a very special trip to witness this historic moment from your saddle. We also have packages covering week 1, 2 and 3 in Italy.
Starting in Israel for the Grande Partenza, the race then returns to Sicily for a second year in a row. After climbing Mount Etna, the race will wind its way up from the toe of Italy, riding through some of the best cycling regions in all of Italy - Calabria, the Apennine mountains, and the Abruzzo region.
The race will continue northwards from the Abruzzo to the Veneto region passing through the beautiful town of Assisi. Upon arrival to the mountains the race will be faced with Monte Zoncolan (featuring only 5 times in Giro history) and briefly enter the Dolomites.
From the mountains in the north-east, the Giro will head to the Alps in the north-west, and a climb up to Cervinia, the southern base of the Matterhorn for the last mountain finish. Rome is the final destination ... an appropriate end-point following the start in Jerusalem.
