What You’ll See on Your Trip
Trip Itinerary
More information regarding the time and meeting point for the first/last day will be provided after the booking.
The journey begins in Numana, the “Lady of the Adriatic,” and in lively Marcelli, now popular destinations for major film productions. After meeting your tour leader and completing the bike fitting, you will find yourselves immersed in a true open-air film set. You will cycle along the streets that hosted Alessandro Siani and Leonardo Pieraccioni during the filming of the comedy “Io e te dobbiamo parlare”, as well as locations chosen for the Mediaset TV series “Fragili” starring Barbara Bouchet.
From saddle to bow: at 3:30 PM we will change perspective.
Leaving the bikes behind, we will board a boat for a panoramic cruise toward the bays of Portonovo and Mezzavalle. We will sail along the coastline featured in the filming of “Io+Te” with Matteo Paolillo and the movie “La spiaggia dei gabbiani”.
The highlight of the day will be a stop at the iconic Due Sorelle Beach, where you can enjoy a refreshing swim among the white sea stacks, followed by a cinematic sunset aperitif on board accompanied by music.
We will return to the harbor surrounded by the evening lights, ready for a gourmet dinner that will perfectly conclude this first day as true protagonists of the journey.
The day begins at 9:00 AM from the small harbor of Numana, where we will board a boat and sail north along one of the most spectacular stretches of the Adriatic coast, a true natural film set that has captivated directors and international productions.
We will cruise past the village of Sirolo and the wild Sassi Neri beach before reaching the famous Due Sorelle Beach, the iconic symbol of the Conero area with its striking white sea stacks. This unique landscape has served as a location for several film and television productions, including La spiaggia dei gabbiani (2023), as well as more recent movie sets and TV series filmed along the Marche coastline.
After a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters and a stop at the more secluded Spiaggia dei Gabbiani, we will enjoy a light meal on board while admiring the coastline from a privileged perspective.
In the afternoon, we will completely change scenery, moving from the sea to the hills. Back on our bicycles, we will enjoy an easy ride through the Rosso Conero vineyards and the rural landscapes of the inland countryside, reaching the village of Camerano.
Here we will explore the fascinating Underground City, an evocative network of caves carved into sandstone that preserves centuries of history, mystery, and local traditions. For those who wish, the visit may conclude with a stop at a local winery to taste the renowned Rosso Conero wine.
Return and convivial dinner to end an intense day spent between sea, nature, and locations that have become icons of contemporary cinema.
A Loop Between Sea, Hills, and Great Cinema
Cycle through the landscapes that inspired Giacomo Leopardi and served as the set for the international film Leopardi & Co (2025) starring Whoopi Goldberg and Jeremy Irvine.
- Departure from Marcelli: We will head inland, passing through the historic Selva di Castelfidardo and the panoramic town of Osimo.
- Recanati, the Heart of the Set: Explore iconic sites of poetry and cinema: from the Piazzetta del Sabato del Villaggio (including Silvia’s house) to the Leopardi House Library, and finally the evocative Garden on the Hill of the Infinite.
- Return to the Coast: Descend toward the majestic Basilica of Loreto and make a stop in Porto Recanati, cycling along the seafront with views of the hills just conquered.
After a lunch break, we will return and depart for individual destinations.
Travel Tour Overview
Conero on Two Wheels: A Cinematic Tour
Along the curves of Monte Conero and the waves of the Riviera, you will glide between the white of the dramatic cliffs and the green of the Colli dell’Infinito. This is not just a sporting journey, but a true dive into the world of cinema. Ancona and the Conero Riviera have long been exceptional natural film sets: we will ride along Viale della Vittoria and Piazza Cavour, where Nanni Moretti shot his masterpiece La stanza del figlio, before ascending to the Cathedral of San Ciriaco, an iconic backdrop for the recent TV series Balene featuring Veronica Pivetti.
The itinerary winds through locations that have inspired masters of the past, from Visconti’s Ossessione to La ragazza con la pistola, as well as contemporary productions. We will cross the Doric historic center and the old port, settings for the latest thrillers Tradita with Manuela Arcuri and Colpa dei sensi directed by Tognazzi, as well as the comedies of Siani and Pieraccioni.
From the vineyards of Rosso Conero to the cycle paths along the Musone River, each stage offers a perfect balance between sport and culture. The grand finale is on the water: after cycling, we will board a boat to admire the Due Sorelle and the Gabbiani Beach from the sea, wild corners chosen as locations for the love scenes in Io+Te (2026).
