What a great tour!! This was our favorite we did in all of Italy. We got to see so much of the city and also the view at Piazza Michaelangelo. Our guide provided great history and information along the way. I have already recommended this tour to other friends. I highly recommend it, but know you should be an adequate biker. Weaving through tourists and local street traffic in Florence is quite something!

Good in a small group when the streets are not too crowded
Debbie_J, Apr 2024
This is a good way to get around the city and see many things. Our guide was very knowledgeable. The only downside is that riding a bicycle in Florence is a little risky due to the number of tourists walking around and cars and taxis on the roads.
Fabulous ride through history.
Wendy_A, Apr 2024
Matteo was a very informative and passionate guide. As there was only the two of us he refined the trip to our physical limitations which was thoughtful and considerate. This was definitely a highlight of our trip. The bikes were well maintained and comfortable.
Great tour with Rafaelo,...
stephen_h, Mar 2024
Great tour with Rafaelo, he provided some very interesting highlights we would never have known had we not done a tour with him. Little tricky riding in crowds of people, so if doing the tour with young kids make sure they’re competent riders, but overall highly recommended.
Fantastico! A must for anyone interested in history!
BRITTANY_L, Jan 2024
The tour guide had a no show of another guide, so she combined two tours together. The other group did not want to ride a bike, and I said I didn't mind what we did as long as it was a historical perspective, so we ended up doing a walking tour. My guide was so fantastic, engaging, and knowledgeable. We had a very small group, so she was queued by our interests and where the city took us. She wove together the history of the city, architecture, and art fantastically. I left understanding so much about the history of Florence, the Medici, and how it all tied into the Renaissance period with its flourishing art and science. Fantastico!
excellent

lorenzo was our guide and he was fantastic!!!! Very knowledgeable!!!! Definitely recommend this tour!
Perfect overview and great stories!
Ilse_D, Dec 2023
The weather was perfect, Francesco knows so much about Firenze and is an amazing storyteller. We did it at the beginning of our stay, we got great tips from Francesco for museums. Knowing about the history gave much more meaning to our stay in the city,
A Great Way to Explore the City!

Best day in Florence
jenny_w, Nov 2023
Love it! Stefano our tour guide shared many historical info with us, he is very knowledgeable! And The special thing about this bike tour is they include piazza Michael Angelo, the most beautiful place in Florence.
Great tour!
Robert_H, Oct 2023
Francesco was an awesome guide! He was very informative and interesting. All of the sites we were taken to were unique and historical. We did not end up riding bikes because it was raining but otherwise the tour was as advertised. The headphones and receiver make it easy to hear the guide while walking around and standing in a group amongst the crowd. Florence is a great city to see and very walkable.
Great way to tour Florence
Brian_C, Oct 2023
With enjoy bile tours, great way to get around the sights of Florence and learn niche information. Guide was fun and knowledgeable, we really enjoyed the tour
Best Way to See Florence
Christopher_G, Oct 2023
This bike tour was the perfect way to see Florence. It was a hot day and the bikes were actually a nice, easy way to see the sights. Irene (I hope I got her name right!) was a very knowledgeable guide and gave us a lot of insight into the city of Florence and all of its history. Julia then came by to take some of us up to Piazzale Michelangelo, and it was the most breathtaking view in the whole city. She came by and biked it in a dress and heels, so if she could do it, so can you, lol. They were super energetic and made the tour an instant recommendation to anyone traveling to Florence. Julia also gave us great recommendations for gelato and dinner in the city, and I can definitely say that her gelato rec - Edoardo’s, was the BEST in Florence. Make sure to book them for your bike tour!!
Guide and staff very...
ken_m, Oct 2023
Guide and staff very knowledgable, friendly and entertaining. One of the highlights of our trip! Great way to see Florence!
Great experience! highly recommend!
Fahimeh_R, Oct 2023
We had Irene as our tour guide for the first part of the bike ride. She was very nice and friendly, answered our questions, and made sure that everybody was following her on the busy streets of Florence. For our second part of the bike ride, we had Julia as our tour guide. She was also very enthusiastic, helpful and very fun! She was like our cheerleader guiding us to the top of the hill, so that we could see the best view of Florence (she was nice enough to take pictures of us too!)
Not to be missed
Carla_A, Sep 2023
The second part of our tour included a ride up to Piazza Michelangelo and it was fabulous. Our guide took us up a longer but less steep route which was very easy to bike and offered beautiful views of the city.
Great overview of the city
Bich_T, Sep 2023
Lorenzo took us all over the beautiful town on our bike. He thoroughly explained the significance of the piazza, the buildings, and landmarks. With the bike we got to see a lot more than walking. This is a good overview tour of the city
Fun and informative cycling tour
Mark_K, Sep 2023
A great way to see all the sights and to get a feel for Florence. Our guide took us to all the tourist locations and was able to keep us informed of the history. A pleasant way to tour around Florence.
Florence Bike Tour
Jessica_G, Sep 2023
The bike tour was a great way to see and learn about the city. This is a historical tour, which takes you into the nooks and crannies of the city. Take the time and travel up to piazzale michaelangelo—so well worth it.
Excellent Service
Alison_O, Aug 2023
Our children were too tired to do the second part of our bike tour in the morning and Julia offered for us to come back later and she took us on a private tour-it was amazing, above and beyond!
