To suggest that I hadn’t been biking in a while would be an understatement. Despite trepidation, I arrived to find I was the only participant. I was gently and patiently oriented to the bike and we set off. About a half hour in my rear-end hurt and I’d panicked a bit too much to relax. This tour requires competence and confidence on a bike - there are busy roads and cobblestones with trolley tracks. Not the easiest. It was offered that we return the bikes and have a personal tour of Milan. It was DELIGHTFUL. I know that this opportunity wouldn’t be possible for most others as I was only one person, but Federico helped manage an awkward situation in the most respectful, helpful, and efficient way. I’m so grateful.
Excellent in every way! Our guide was brilliant. She made sure everyone was familiar with the e-bike and gave a little more time to first timers. At times you will be in close to traffic but generally in bike lanes. Stops were well timed and the information regarding the current day and historical aspect explained really well. Her English was excellent. No trouble understanding her at all.
The e-bike tour was really great. Our guide Sylvia was knowledgeable but very approchable at the same time, always willing to answer questions. She really made the trip fantastic. Thebiking was easy and we were lucky because our group only had 7 people so very manageable, I would do it again.
it was a great experience exploring the city. tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. would recommend.
The guide was Silvia, very good and knowledgeable. The tour was fun and enjoyable. Had a great first time in Milan.
It's a fun tour to get out and about and see different spots you may not walk to it know about. Our guide was Celia (hopefully spelled correctly). She was very knowledgeable and and enjoyable to chat with.
Pros- great way to see the highlights and get your bearings. Sylvia was a lovely guide! Be aware- slightly off the beaten track meeting place, crazy Milan traffic (cars, cycles, scooters, Door Dash bikers) so you have to be very vigilant, must bring your own water and holder for it although you can purchase beverages at the midpoint which was a stop along the canal. If more than 5 bikers, 2 guides would be preferable as it’s a bit hard to stay together, at least for the afternoon tour.
Thank you for your detailed feedback, Lynn! We’re really glad you enjoyed your Milan e-bike tour and that Sylvia helped you discover the city’s highlights in a fun and engaging way. Milan can be lively and dynamic, and exploring it by e-bike is a great way to get your bearings while seeing so much in a short time 😊 Thank you also for the notes, we'll take them into account!
The tour was fun. It was my last day in Italy so I didn’t have time to explore milan by myself but in this tour I had the opportunity. with the e bike and our guide it was easy and fun but I recommend going in morning it will be much easier than midday especially if the weather is hot. Overall it definitely deserves booking it always nice doing adventure with other people.
