We had a wonderful tour with Veronica. She is a Florence native and had information about everything that we saw along the way. The tour is very well organized and the headsets give you constant communication from the leader.
Alessandra was a excellent guide.... Headsets were terrific... E bike was fantastic... Traffic and people were intense!
I had an incredible experience on the e-bike tour in Florence! The bikes were easy to use and made the ride comfortable, even on the hills. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and shared fascinating stories about Florence’s history, art, and hidden gems that I never would have discovered on. It was the perfect balance of sightseeing, exercise, and fun. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Florence—it’s a unique way to explore the city!
Great way to get a perfect perspective & overall overview of this beautiful city. Our guide Claudia was very informative & personable. The terrain is mostly flat & you could easily do without an electric bike
Nicely done bike tour around the main sight of Florence. Our guide, Manuelo, did very nice job on history and culture. He is very friendly and knowledgeable. Plus very good group management for safety and navigating crowds.
Really enjoyed the bike tour - a great introduction to Florence and cycling really does give you the opportunity to see so much more. It was busy but no problem riding on the small streets. Our guide was friendly, welcoming and being born in Florence had great local knowledge and there was plenty of opportunity to ask questions - particularly liked the use of headsets to hear the guide. We used e-bikes but very gentle riding so just a standard bike would be good too. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
Fantastic tour, Alice was very informative and considering how wet the day was having a poncho given out to keep you dry was a great touch.
The bike tour gave us good overview of the city. A lot of good info shared. Our group had a lot of problems with the bikes. Saddles and handlebars not secure, which meant a lot of stopping for repairs. Not everyone but several of us had issues with hearing the guide on the headsets.
Hi Sally, thank you for the feedback and my apologies for the issues on tour. You had a new guide who unfortunately did not tighten the bikes up properly before the tour began. We have re-explained the importance of this and it won't happen again. Please accept my apology and hopefully in the future we will get a chance to delight you on tour.
Fun tour! History and adventure at the same time. Plenty of stops with historical interest and great views. We got to see more of the city than we would have just walking. Be prepared for busy streets and lots of people!
