Rimini is one of Italy’s most famous seaside resorts, with a long beach covered in colourful sun lounges and umbrellas. Famous as the birthplace of film auteur Federico Fellini, the historical port town is now renowned for its vibrant nightlife and shopping. Rimini’s other main attraction is cycling. The Giro d’Italia passes through town each year, and the surrounding Emilia Romagna region offers many spectacular mountain landscapes ideal for cycling.

Reviews
This is my first time to Rimini with my friends and I have heard lots about it, and it did not disappoint. The hotel Ferretti Beach was very comfortable, and the service was first class. One my first day cycling I met the guide who took me through some of best mountains I had ever seen on my mountain bike, and despite being exhausted at the end I had fallen in Love with Rimini and Italian Riviera Romagnola. The rest of the week continued to be excellent. The guides were very experienced and very professional .
