Food & Wine Bike Tour in the Heart of the Mendrisiotto.
Discover the Mendrisiotto, the southernmost region of Switzerland and the cradle of a rich food‑and‑wine tradition. This guided bike tour takes you through rolling hills, vineyards, and evocative landscapes, with visits to four local wineries and tastings of regional wines paired with typical specialties.
The Mendrisiotto is the most vineyard‑rich area of Ticino and offers a unique terroir, ideal for producing high‑quality wines. During this half‑day tour, suitable for everyone, you’ll have the chance to meet local winemakers and experience their passion up close.
At the end of the tour, you can round off the day with a dinner arranged on request in a traditional local grotto, enjoying regional dishes in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Get in touch with us, and together we’ll plan an unforgettable experience. - Is it possible to enjoy the Bike’n’Wine experience during the harvest season?
Yes, it is possible to take part in the Bike’n’Wine experience during the harvest season. However, it’s important to note that this is an extremely busy time for winemakers, and we cannot guarantee that you will be able to meet all of them personally along the route. During the harvest, winemakers are often occupied with grape picking and wine production activities. As a result, some wineries may not be open to the public or may offer limited hours for tastings.
