Meet your guide and small group directly at the bike shop a short distance from the Colosseum in central Rome to strap on your helmet and get fitted for your e-bike.

The E-Bike tour was a wonderful experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable about Rome history and the ride was beautiful. The aqueducts were amazing to see as were the Roman ruins. Overall a great experience.

This half-day tour was a highlight of our time in Rome. Valerio was a great guide- he shared loads of interesting information with us in addition to being a lot of fun (as well as very patient with guests who were, let’s say, not so great on the e-bike, speaking about a friend, for sure). The bikes were very safe annd easy to ride, although we had to navigate through traffic before reaching the trail and some spots on the trail itself were a bit more difficult. Not treacherous by any means.
The scenery was gorgeous and the history was mind-bending. Just a really great way to spend the day.

Our tour guide was great! Very knowledgeable. The ride was just a tad too long. We did the 4 hour trip. Our butts got a workout with the little seats. They might invest in the large padded ones. Other than that the tour was great! Safe. Very interesting.

From beginning to end, the tour was a fascinating view of pieces of Rome's accomplished history: the Appia Antica, aqueducts, catacombs, tombs and the beautifully protected historical green spaces/farms/vineyards etc. Our guide, Ricardo, was prepared, informative, attentive and obviously loves sharing his historical knowledge with participants. We highly recommend this tour. Just be aware that there are some mild/intermediate physical challenges along the way.
Response from Host, Apr 2024

Biked with our 2 kids (6 and 8). We loved it! The start is a little nerve racking as you are on some busy streets, but the guide was encouraging our kids. The views once on the proper Appian way are amazing. Scenic, educational, and fun’

Not for the faint of heart! You have to deal with Rome traffic and quite frankly, scary travel conditions. The apian way is spectacular but with many un predictable hazards. And BUMP!. Guide was knowledgeable and amusing but a bit more aggressive in his speed than I was comfortable with because of the terrain
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Hi Annette, we are sorry about your health problems, we carry out this tour regularly and we are sorry to have to repeat that unfortunately we are not in a city like Amsterdam, or along the sunny S. Diego ebike line in California.
our work begins and ends with making our travelers safe and out of danger or accidents.
we wish you the best

Filipe was the “Best”. Great Time and Great Ride! E-bikes are the way to Go
Especially if you are over 70.
