“We took part in a tour arranged by the Basecamp523 team during the Frasassi Climbing festival. Marco, Silvia, Andrea, and Alessandro were highly professional, providing detailed explanations of the route tailored to our abilities and configuring the e-bikes to suit us. The bikes were in excellent condition and performed well. Our guide, Luca, was very helpful and enthusiastic, leading us safely along a dirt path. He was both engaging and knowledgeable. This experience is one we highly recommend and plan to do again soon. Thank you. Fabrizio and Monica”— fabend01 on the Full-day private bike tour of ghost towns near Fabriano and Genga tour
