Walking & Hiking
We can design tours for almost any walking level (depending on the terrain, of course!), and have tours that go from easy outings to the challenging Alpine hiking of the Dolomites mountains The activity level on our scheduled tours is clearly defined so you know…
Cycling & E-Biking
Some of our guides are also cyclists, and they’d be happy to show you around on two wheels. We can usually find road bikes for rent in most destinations, or try an e-bike, which allows all of the fun with a fraction of the effort (though don’t be fooled…
“Light Active” Tours
You don’t have to go on a “hike” to get your steps in, and sometimes a full day out in a city or exploring an archaeological site can be just as “active” as an organized walk. We’re also aware that we’re not as young as we once were, so we’re happy to offer tours that are…

Dolomites Hike: Val di Funes & Val Rendena
What a wonderful week with Wild Sage in the Dolomites! This itinerary takes in a less-touristed but undeniably spectacular section of the Dolomites: plenty of craggy peaks, lush alpine valleys, bubbling streams, and quaint towns. The meals and accommodations were excellent, and the hiking varied and challenging. But it is the guides that make this trip special. They were engaged, knowledgeable, upbeat and supportive. Their daily plans were flexible and accommodated people with varied needs and interests. They kept the group lively and organized while dealing with a few unexpected events (like a rail strike on our last day of travel). You can find other companies to take you hiking, but none can offer you the expertise, dedication and joy that Manu, Claire and Melissa bring to the trails. Don't miss this experience!

Piedmont Gourmet Walking Tour
I’d never been on a tour before and wasn’t sure what to expect, but this trip exceeded all my hopes. Manu and Melissa created an excellent trip that included beautiful hikes, history, delicious local food & wine, charming hotels, a really fun cooking class and more. Everything was presented with keen knowledge and joy. We all felt so well taken care of! They could not have been more thoughtful. They quietly moved the vans in the early mornings to accommodate people’s various hiking desires and when I had a bit of a medical emergency Manu very generously took the day to help me get it sorted. I can’t recommend Wild Sage any more vigorously! I’d love to take another trip with them!
