A dual audio journey through curiosity, nature, history, and sustainable mobility: 30 new episodes for young travelers and a new channel coming soon, the result of a partnership between Loquis and Trenitalia, to tell the story of Italian cycle paths together with Davide Cassani and Bike Channel by Tiscali Italia
The collaboration between Trenitalia (FS Group) and Loquis, the world’s first platform for geolocalized travel podcasts, is renewed and enriched. Following the success of last year’s launch, the channel Travel Kids – L’Italia in Intercity con Focus Junior returns as a protagonist with 30 new episodes, designed to entertain and inspire the youngest during their train journeys, throughout the Peninsula and in Sicily. And Intercity Bike is also arriving, the new podcast channel dedicated to cycle tourism, created in collaboration with Bike Channel by Tiscali Italia, for discovering the most beautiful Italian cycle paths reachable by train.
Designed to enhance the travel experience in a creative, educational, and screen-free way, Travel Kids – L’Italia in Intercity con Focus Junior offers short audio stories that blend curiosity, science, nature, historical figures, and legends. Everything is narrated with a lively and accessible style, thanks to the voices of Andrea Lucchetta, former Italian National volleyball player, and the creator Alessio Bourcet, known to the public as Pika Palindromo. The texts are edited by the Focus Junior editorial team, a guarantee of high-quality popularization and language suitable for children. The topics range from stories related to artistic and cultural heritage, such as the painting that saved the city of Arezzo, to tales that intertwine science and archaeology, such as the one about Ötzi, the prehistoric mummy of the Alps. There are also journeys into historical memory, like the one in Rovigo in the museum where the past can be relived, and epic adventures linked to legendary figures like Marco Polo or Attila. Each episode is enriched with anecdotes and curiosities, with some forays into the Italian food and wine tradition, such as the famous mozzarella of Gioia del Colle. Each listen thus becomes a small journey into the Italian imagination and culture, perfect to experience on a train.
And it is in this direction that “Intercity Bike” is also born, the new podcast channel – coming soon – dedicated to the world of two wheels. The project will showcase the main Italian cycle paths reachable with Intercity trains, thanks to the voice of Davide Cassani, former technical commissioner of the Italian National cycling team and an expert on the territory.
The editorial production is signed by Bike Channel, a key web portal in the sector and part of the Tiscali Italia ecosystem, a Tessellis Group company active in Telecommunications and the Media&Tech sector, to guarantee authoritative, updated content capable of inspiring cycle tourists of all ages. A format designed to combine sustainable mobility, sport, and the discovery of the territory. Each route is a weave of landscapes, cinematic settings, events, flavors, and local stories, to be experienced with the wind in your face and wonder in your eyes. Between cycle paths, trains, and less-traveled roads, you will rediscover the most authentic, sustainable, and surprising Italy. From North to South, and often with a sea view.
With the beginning of summer, Loquis thus strengthens its collaboration with Intercity, which has once again chosen the platform as its audio partner to promote the territory through widespread, experiential, and inclusive narration. The initiative is part of Trenitalia’s strategy to promote conscious, slow, and environmentally friendly tourism, integrating train travel with cultural and recreational experiences of great value.
Travel Kids – L’Italia in Intercity con Focus Junior is already available both in the desktop version and through the Loquis app, which can be downloaded for free from all stores, and can be used both on the train and at home.
