What cities will we visit during the trip?
We’ll travel through three amazing Italian cities: Milan, Bologna, and Rimini. Each stop includes curated experiences like cultural tours, factory visits, and group meals, all tailored to showcase the best of Italian culture and Ducati passion.
Can I book my own airfare and meet the group in Italy?
Yes, all travelers are responsible for booking their own airfare. A recommended group flight will be provided for those who wish to travel together, but you’re welcome to choose your own itinerary. If you book a different flight, please ensure you arrive in Milan on June 27th before 3:00 PM so you can join the group transfer and scheduled activities.
How many people will be on the trip?
We are planning for a small group of 15–30 people to keep the experience personal and well-managed. This size allows us to enjoy group events without sacrificing flexibility or comfort. There will be a max cap of 30 people.
Is this trip suitable for solo travelers?
Absolutely! Solo travelers are more than welcome and often make up a large portion of our groups. You can opt for a private room (additional cost) or be paired with another solo traveler of the same gender.
Can I extend my trip before or after the group itinerary?
Yes! We’ll offer guidance on optional travel extensions to places like Florence, Venice, or Rome. Whether you want to stay longer in Italy or travel elsewhere in Europe, we can help with suggestions and train routes.
What is the payment schedule and cancellation policy?
A non-refundable deposit will be required to reserve your spot. The full payment schedule and cancellation terms will be clearly outlined before booking. We also recommend purchasing travel insurance for added flexibility and protection.
Will there be a tour guide with the group the entire time?
Yes, a trip host will accompany the group throughout the journey. In some cities, local guides will join us for specific activities or tours to provide expert insight and interpretation.
How much walking is involved each day?
Expect moderate walking during tours and city exploration. Comfortable footwear is essential, especially on cobblestone streets. Those with mobility concerns should contact us to discuss the itinerary, as this might be a challenge.
What’s the group age range or typical traveler profile?
Most travelers are ages 20–60, but all adults and children (14+) are welcome. Some are solo riders, others come with friends or spouses. Everyone shares a love for travel, culture, or Ducati — no riding required!
What language will tours and activities be conducted in?
All group tours and experiences will be conducted in English, unless otherwise noted. Local Italian guides may speak accented English, but we’ll always ensure clear communication.
Do I need a visa to travel to Italy?
U.S. and Canadian passport holders do not need a visa for stays under 90 days in Italy. Just make sure your passport is valid for at least 6 months beyond your return date.
From 2026, citizens of eligible countries need to apply for the ETIAS Italy before travelling to the country. The ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) will be introduced by the European Union for all Schengen area member countries.
The ETIAS requirements for Italy will require previously visa-exempt citizens to complete an online ETIAS Italy application prior to their trip.
What are the room options for travelers?
We offer single occupancy (private room for one traveler) and double occupancy (shared room with one other person). You can request a roommate or share with someone you’re traveling with. Family rooms are also available by request and can accommodate three people in one room — perfect for families traveling together. Just let us know your preference when booking.
What should I pack for this trip?
We recommend packing light but smart. Here’s a quick list:
- Comfortable walking shoes
- Summer clothing (breathable and lightweight)
- One or two dressier outfits for dinners or nights out
- Travel-size toiletries
- European plug adapter (Type C/L)
- A daypack or small bag for excursions
- Helmet (if riding a motorcycle and not renting one)
- A valid passport + printed copy of travel documents
If you’re renting a motorcycle, bring your International Driving Permit (IDP) and gear if preferred.
What’s the weather like in Italy during July?
Expect warm to hot summer weather, especially along the coast:
- Milan & Bologna: Highs in the 80s–90s°F (27–35°C), mostly sunny
- Rimini: Coastal breeze helps, but still warm — great for beach time and Ducati Week events. We recommend sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen) and staying hydrated during outdoor excursions.
Is Italy safe for travelers?
Yes — Italy is generally very safe for tourists, especially in the areas we’ll visit. That said, we recommend:
- Keeping valuables secure and using a money belt or crossbody bag.
- Watching out for pickpocketing in busy tourist areas.
- Using hotel safes for passports and extras.
- Traveling in small groups during free time. We’ll also provide an emergency contact sheet and stay connected through a group chat or WhatsApp during the trip.
Will we have any free time during the trip?
Yes! While many experiences are planned, we’ve intentionally built in free time so you can relax, explore at your own pace, or enjoy spontaneous adventures. Each city offers opportunities to shop, dine, or discover on your own.
Are all group activities mandatory?
No — group activities are optional. You’re encouraged to join as many as you’d like, but if you’d prefer a quiet afternoon or personal excursion, you’re free to do so.
Are vegetarian or special dietary needs accommodated?
Absolutely. We do our best to accommodate vegetarian, gluten-free, and other dietary restrictions. Please share your needs when registering so we can notify the hotels and plan accordingly.
What type of hotels will we stay in?
We’ll stay in clean, comfortable 3–4 star hotels located in the heart of each city or town. All accommodations include breakfast and are chosen for their location, charm, and group accessibility — not beachfront, but conveniently placed.
Is travel insurance required?
We strongly recommend travel insurance. While not required, it protects your investment in case of illness, travel delays, or unexpected changes. You’re welcome to use any reputable provider — or conveniently add coverage as part of your travel package with us.
Will I need to exchange currency or can I use credit cards?
Italy uses the euro (€). Credit cards are widely accepted (especially Visa and Mastercard), but having some cash for small vendors, tips, or taxis is recommended. ATMs are easy to find.
Is tipping expected in Italy?
Tipping in Italy is not required and often already included. Most restaurants add a small service charge (coperto) to the bill, and staff are paid fair wages — so tipping is modest and entirely optional. That said, if you receive exceptional service, it’s common to round up the bill or leave a couple of euros. For private guides or drivers, a small tip is appreciated but not expected. If you don’t tip, it’s perfectly normal — no one will take offense.
Will Wi-Fi be available at the hotels?
Yes, Wi-Fi is included at all accommodations. Speeds may vary, but you’ll have internet access for communication, maps, or sharing your travel highlights.
Can I rent a motorcycle in Italy?
Yes! Motorcycle rentals are available for licensed riders. You’ll need to bring your home country license and obtain an International Driving Permit (IDP). A helmet is also required (you can bring your own or rent one). We’ll help guide you through the process. Rentals will be limited and are booked through a separate provider.
Do I have to ride a motorcycle to join the trip?
Not at all! Riding is optional. Whether you’re a motorcycle enthusiast, a traveler interested in Italian culture, or just looking for a great group experience — you’re welcome.
Can I bring a guest who doesn’t ride motorcycles?
Yes! Riding is completely optional. Many guests join the trip just to enjoy Italy, the culture, and the Ducati vibe — whether or not they ride. Your guest will have a great time either way.
Do I need to be a Ducati Owners Club (DOC) member to join the trip?
This group trip is open to the public, but to keep it rooted in the Ducati community, we ask that non-DOC participants join as a travel companion of a fully registered DOC member. This way, the spirit of Ducati stays strong, while still welcoming friends, spouses, and fellow adventurers.
