Rome in a Day Cannondale E-Bike Tour with Typical Italian Lunch
Description
See the sights of the Eternal City on a full-day electric-assist bicycle tour, with a pizza or pasta lunch, and of course, a glass of wine and an espresso is a must! Easy and safe to ride, the bicycle has an electric motor that kicks in when pedaling. As well as allowing you to see the sights with little effort, the bike enables you to cover more ground, too! See the Colosseum and ruins of Ancient Rome; explore the charming neighborhood of Trastevere; visit squares like Piazza Navona; and admire attractions like Rome Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, and more.

Awesome way to discover Rome! Our guide Ximena was excellent - super knowledgeable, friendly and easy to follow on bikes. We learned a lot from her about the city history and landmarks and she made it lots of fun. She was very good about stopping in quiet areas to explain the history/monument and would then watch over the bikes while we would see the sightings. Rome is a busy city and I was afraid this bike tour might be challenging, but it was super smooth! Highly recommend if you are looking for a fun active way to discover the city and its neighborhoods!
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed “an awesome way to discover Rome” and that Ximena’s knowledge, friendliness, and attention throughout the tour made such a positive impression. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another ride through Rome in the future! Best Regards Simone TopBike Rental&Tours
This tour was awesome. We saw everything there is to see in Rome, so didn't feel like we missed anything... if there was something we wanted to see in more detail, then now we knew about it and could schedule a more detailed tour later. The pace was easy and our guide was very knowledgeable. The lunch was fabulous, as well! Really glad we did this tour and have recommended it to many others.
Stop scrolling & just book this trip. It was worth every penny. The itinerary was perfect for our first day in Rome. We visited places we never would have had time to see on foot. The bikes were really nice. Brita was so kind, knowledgeable & full of fun facts about Rome. The facility had really clean restrooms, which are hard to come by in Rome. 10/10 would do this tour again.
Wow, thank you! We’re so glad you had such a great first day in Rome and enjoyed the ride with Bita 🚴♂️ Hope to welcome you back soon!
Great way to get an introduction to the city and learn a lot of history! So much better than walking or the Hopon Hopoff bus style city tour. Meghan was friendly, down to earth, full of knowledge and passionate about the city and country. She was a great guide and host and managing to navigate through the crowds and traffic without incident was very impressive! Bikes were very high quality and everything very organized and professional. Great lunch stop. Would recommend this to anyone even if you are not someone who gets on a bike very often.
7 hour tour @ 20 km distance many stops to see the sites. Lunch was good, nice place shaded off the street behind a small park. Tour guide was Youp, studying history so we got the dirt on everything. Would recommend, will take another tour next time in city. Bike was good, comfortable and easy to use.
We’re so glad you enjoyed the balance of sightseeing, history, and a relaxing lunch stop with Youp. Delighted the bikes were comfortable, and we can’t wait to have you join another tour!
Great time. Got to see the whole city and our leader was very knowledgeable and enjoyable to spend time with.
This was an amazing tour! Our guide Youp is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Rome and shared it in a fun and engaging way! Lunch was sooo good! There is no way to see Rome in a better way! Book it now!
This was THE best tour of all the things we did in Rome. We saw parts of the city we never knew were there. Worried about E-bikes? They are super easy!! This was our first experience and our groups had people of all ages. You don’t have to be in shape or accustomed to bike riding to enjoy this tour. If you can balance on a bike, this tour is for you. Highly recommend!!
Rome and eBike - does it work? It's going great! We were traveling with 10 bikers and saw all the sights of the city in one day. Catarina gave us perfect introductions and guided us safely through traffic. So we could also drive up 2 hills to enjoy the view of Rome. And if you still have nice passengers, then there can not be a nicer day in Rome - thank you very much!
Really great experience, our tour guide Katarina was amazing, super knowledgeable, overall created a wonderful day.
