Our GuidesPuntoTours was established by a couple of passionate cycling enthusiasts with a love for Italy, it's culture and cuisine! They wanted to share the Italian's consuming love of cycling and the stunning countryside with family and friends, hence the birth of PuntoTours. Our friendly, professional guides combine this passion with extensive knowledge of the regions in which we offer tours to give you the experience of a lifetime. Our motto Veni Vidi Bici sums this up - come, see and ride!

Vincenzo Ulgiati
Vincenzo is a dual Italian/Australian citizen who got hooked on touring Italy after his first tour in 2001. Coming from a sporting background in state indoor and beach volleyball, Vincenzo has never been one to sit around. Since retiring from volleyball he has competed in numerous Triathlons, including two half-ironman events. During Triathlon he discovered he loved being on the bike most of all. Vincenzo has been taking groups to Italy on cycling holidays ever since. He speaks Italian and German fluently making some of those cross border raids into Austria and Switzerland that much easier. He knows the Alpine and Dolomite regions as well as Tuscany intimately, and loves getting cyclists of all abilities to discover their hidden potential.

Andrea Nicosia - Guide
Andrea's love for the bike began at the age of 13 racing mountainbikes. The bikes then were a far cry from the technologically advanced ones we ride today.

Over the years he has competed with the Italian junior cycling squad in the World and European championships, as well as mountain bike and road granfondos, with great results. In 2002 Andrea decided to combine his passion for cycling with his love for the natural beauty, culture and gastronomical delights that only Italy can offer, by working as a tour guide. Andrea has accompanied over 400 guests from all over the world guiding them through unique regions of Italy, from the great Alpine and Appenine passes to the beautiful beaches of Sardegna and Corsica and everything in between. Andrea has an innate sense of service and combines this with his cycling experience and mechanical knowledge to guarantee a memorable time on any Tour.

Fiona Ulgiati - Guide
Fiona only started riding in her early forties, and was immediately hooked. Riding at home was great but with Vince coming home full of stories about riding in Italy, she couldn’t wait to try it for herself. If you now ask her “what’s it like riding in Italy” she will grin from ear to ear and tell you how fantastic it is – “the sense of freedom and the euphoria of achieving what ever goal you have set yourself is indescribable! If I can ride in Italy, you can too. Come do it – life is short!” She has risen to the challenge of the Passo dello Stelvio more than once, and ridden some classic alpine granfondos, as well as being passionately in love with the rolling beauty of Tuscany. So if Fiona isn’t riding as guide on an easy or intermediate tour, cheering you on, she will be providing road support or doing the behind-the-scenes paperwork that keeps us ticking over.
