Wine-focused private day with included local transport
Discover Langhe wines with private tour and expert sommelier
Best for: travelers who want a wine-first visit with guided tastings and private transport
This private experience is built around winery visits rather than sightseeing between many stops. The day includes two wineries, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, with time to meet producers and taste their wines. Transportation is included from Canelli, Neive, and Alba, which makes it easier for travelers based in those places. Lunch is left open as a separate break in a traditional osteria, so you can choose how to handle it. It suits guests who want a guided, wine-centered day with a smaller, more personal feel and no need to manage logistics themselves.
Private wine touring with two cellar visits
- Visits two wineries in the Barolo and Barbaresco areas.
- Private transportation is included from Canelli, Neive, and Alba.
- A guide with long regional experience leads the visit and tastings.
Active sightseeing on mixed-surface roads
"Langhe del Barolo" Private E-bike Tour – Asphalt and Dirt Road
Best for: travelers who want an active way to see the landscape and can handle a moderate cycling day
This private e-bike tour is the most active of the three and is designed for riders comfortable with a medium training level. The route combines dirt and asphalt roads and is described as about 40 kilometers with significant elevation gain, so it is better suited to travelers who want an energetic day outdoors. The guide helps with the bike and explains the surroundings along the way. The itinerary notes mention village stops, scenic viewpoints, and a castle visit, but optional rentals, lunch, and some tasting items are not included. It works well for travelers who want to cover more ground while staying close to the landscape.

Private scooter touring with flexible pacing
Private Vespa Tour "Among the hills of Barolo and Barbaresco"
Best for: travelers who want a private scenic ride and prefer sitting back more than pedaling
This private Vespa tour is a scenic ride through the hills between Barolo and Barbaresco, starting from Alba. Compared with the e-bike option, it is less physically demanding, but it does require experience riding scooters or motorcycles. The guide explains the area along the way, and the private setup allows the route length to be adjusted to your group’s needs. The itinerary notes point to village stops, viewpoints, and possible pauses for lunch or tasting, though those are not included as standard. It suits travelers who want a more relaxed way to cover the region while still spending the day outdoors and moving between hill towns.
