Fantastic way to see Florence at night. The ride is not too hard and you get to see a beautiful sunset if you take the night tour. Our guide was great and overall experience fabulous.

Raphael Is an phantastic guide With much Sense of Humor! Grandios Tour, easy to ride! TXS for this nice evening!!!

Great way to see Florence!

Anthony_H, Sep 2019

We had a great night on our electric bikes. Our guide Gabriel was great. Since it ended up being just two of us on his tour, we talked about what we wanted to see. With little to no traffic, along with many bike lanes along the way, it was a stress-free ride. And using the electric bike on those hills came in handy. Totally recommend!

This was great tour. My guide, Gabriel, made sure I was safe and keeping up. Got to ride to Piazzale Michelangelo for a stunning view of Rome just as the sun was setting the electric-assist bike certainly helped to get up the hill, and then on to hit the highlights of Florences architectural sights at night. The night finished with a delicious gelato. Highly recommended if you like bike riding.

What an awesome experience. The bikes were a lot of fun, the view of the city was incredible at night and seeing some of the sites in Florence at night was amazing. Our guide was really nice and informative, and guided us safely around cars, pedestrians and bumpy roads. In fact, he gave up his bicycle light to put on mine, since my bike didn't have one. Our guide was open to any suggestions that we made, more or less information at each location. I would have preferred seeing a few more sites, and less information at each site, but since we were with another couple and they were asking questions it didn't seem right to ask for less detail. The gelato at the end of the evening was wonderful. We had a hard time finding the location where we were to meet, even asking people around the area they couldn't tell us where we were supposed to be, fortunately we had allowed plenty of time to get to the location so we weren't late. Would definitely recommend this tour, although the bikes are pretty fast, if you aren't comfortable on a bicycle probably wouldn't recommend it.

Sarah d, Jul 2017

This tour was excellent! We saw some sites we would have otherwise missed, such as the apartment that da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa, and learned some pretty interesting facts. The bikes were easy to use and did required minimal exertion - even up hill. Gabrielle our guide was incredibly friendly and informative and the group was small. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

Ray M, Jun 2017

We signed up for this just to have something to do for the evening. It turned out to be one of our best tours of our entire trip. It was just me and my wife so the guide tailored the tour to what we wanted to see and do. We would highly recommend this tour.

Gabriel was fabulous. We loved every minute of the tour. While we were hesitant to use electric bikes initially, they were fabulous and really helped with the hills while still feeling like you'd done some exercise. We would highly recommend this tour company
