Sardinia is a designated Blue Zone, an area where people live longer and have healthier lifestyles rooted in generational traditions. Travelers will explore the cultural and historical aspects of the region on the tour. Experience culinary traditions of the region, sampling cuisine not found elsewhere in Italy alongside your chef guide.
“We’re celebrating the Chef Bike Tour concept with this brand-new itinerary in Sardinia, thanks to the Autonomous Region of Sardinia and its ‘Museando in Tour’ project in collaboration with local tourism operators,” said Beppe Salerno, co-founder, Tourissimo. “It’s an honor to have celebrity Chef Mary Sue Milliken for the first time in Sardinia. She’s a champion of sustainable food systems and is deeply interested in exploring different cultures through the lens of food.”
