"Is this tour too difficult for me?"
Response: The Diagonal Tour is a Enthusiast-level ride, designed for experienced cyclists who enjoy long distances and elevation gains. However, we provide detailed route profiles, support vehicles, and the option to go self-guided or with a guide, allowing you to manage the pace that suits you best. If you're unsure, we’re happy to discuss your experience level and help you decide if this tour is right for you.
"What if something happens to my bike during the ride?"
Response: We offer mechanical support, and our high-quality rental bikes are professionally maintained before every tour. If you bring your own bike, our team can assist with basic repairs. We pride our guests have never had to skip a stage in over 15 years.
"Will I feel isolated if I choose the self-guided option?"
Response: Not at all! Our self-guided option includes turn-by-turn navigation via our app, detailed maps, and local recommendations for food, rest stops, and attractions along the way. Plus, our support team is just a call away if you need assistance.
"What’s included in the price? Are there any hidden costs?"
Response: We believe in transparent pricing. The 'Support' area of this page provides a precise breakdown of incluions for all the support level available. Some dinners, drinks, and personal expenses are not included, so you have the flexibility to choose where and what to eat.
"I want to experience Sardinia, not just ride. Will I have time to explore?"
Response: Absolutely! While cycling is a key part of the experience, we’ve carefully designed the itinerary to allow time for local culture, food, and relaxation. You'll pass through charming villages, stunning coastlines, and historical sites, with opportunities to stop and explore during the rides or in the evenings.
"How do I get to the starting point, and how do I return after the tour?"
Response: We assist with logistics! The tour starts in the north of Sardinia and ends in the central east coast. We can arrange airport transfers or guide you on the best way to reach the starting point and return after your adventure.
"Why should I book with Sardinia Cycling instead of another provider?"
Response: With over a decade of experience, we specialize in premium cycling tours in Sardinia. Unlike larger operators, we provide a deep local knowledge, handpicked routes, and personalized service that ensures you get the most out of your experience. Plus, our top-tier rental bikes, expert support, and flexible options make your trip seamless and stress-free. When you reach out to us—before or during your trip—you'll be speaking directly with the experts who designed your tour, not a third-party intermediary.
"I can plan a trip like this on my own. Why pay for a tour?"
Response: Planning a multi-day cycling adventure requires extensive research, logistics, and on-the-ground knowledge. Our tours take care of route planning, luggage transfers, accommodation, and support, so you can focus on enjoying the ride without the stress of organizing details or troubleshooting issues on the go.
"Is Sardinia really worth it compared to other cycling destinations?"
Response: Sardinia offers stunning landscapes, diverse terrain, quiet roads, and an authentic Italian experience that many popular cycling destinations can’t match. It’s a paradise for road cyclists, with breathtaking coastal views, mountain climbs, and a mild Mediterranean climate—perfect for riding almost all year round.
