My family of 4 had a wonderful experience on this tour. The drive to and from Tuscany was beautiful, the guides were helpful and accommodating (both during the bike ride, as well as throughout the entire experience), and the meal and wine (in a castle!!) was delicious. I absolutely recommend this excursion - it is a perfect way to experience an area outside of Florence.
This was an amazing experience. The views were incredible, biking was leisurely and our tour guide Angus was extremely knowledgeable and more than willing to answer any of our questions. I highly recommend this tour to all. At the end you get to try 3 different wines (pretty much 3 full glasses of wine) and they served an amazing lasagna. One out of favorite activities we’ve done in Italy.
Angus was an awesome tour guide. Very knowledgeable about vineyards and wine process, as well as operating the bikes. Clear directions about where we were going to go and what we were seeing. Also, the wine tasting and lunch was a great way to end the experience. It was delicious!! Everyone was so friendly too!!
The tour views were truly breathtaking. Our guides, Ben and Jason were amazing! Amazing lunch, wine, and company.
We had an outstanding time, Angus was a terrific guide. Beautiful scenery, well designed and supported, great experience.
A perfect tour with Angus. Highly recommend this.
My wife and I had a great experience with the team at Tuscany Bike and Wine Tours. Ben and Jason were awesome and enthusiastic guides. The riding was beautiful and we were often checked on. A couple of riders were fatigued and respectfully assisted.
This tour was the highlight of our trip to Florence! Everyone was so friendly and the food was amazing! Bikes were easy to use and suitable for beginners and avid bikers alike.
Great people super fun adventure! I used an electric bike husband did not. A few hills so might want to consider electric for that. Liked it best of all our Florence excursions.
What a great day biking through Tuscany. Felippo and Ben were great hosts and Angus was a fantastic biking guide. The ride was excellent; safe with several stops along the way to take in the views and learn about the area, a bit about its history and local vineyards. The group (most on Vespas) met back at the Castello di Poppiano for a tour and lunch including olive oil and wine tasting. The olive oil, food and wine were excellent. Felippo, Ben and their staff are very friendly and made the whole group comfortable with lots of laughs. The bikes were nice, well maintained and worked smoothly. We heard the same about the Vespas. This trip is well worth the fee and the perfect way to spend a day in Tuscany.
