What To Expect

Your Rome bike tour starts near Piazza Venezia, where you’ll meet your guide, who will offer a short safety briefing before you put on your helmet and hop on your bike.

Follow your guide along a 9-mile (14.5-km) route that takes you past some of the Eternal City’s most iconic sights, including the Roman Forum, once the center of Ancient Rome, and the Colosseum, where gruesome gladiator battles took place. Pass by the Trevi Fountain, known for the many coins tossed into its waters, and ride through the historical Jewish Ghetto area.

Between these legendary attractions, you’ll take breaks to sample some of Rome’s culinary delights and to listen to commentary from your informative guide about Rome’s history and sights. Visit a cafe for a traditional Italian breakfast—a simple croissant and espresso. Then head to a bakery where you’ll enjoy a slice of crispy, thin-crust Roman pizza, and replenish your energy with a sample of gelato at a gelateria, an Italian ice cream parlor. You’ll also hear a bit about gelato’s origins and its significance in the country’s culture.

Your tour ends when you return to your starting point.

Pam F, Sep 2018
This is a great way to familiarise yourself with Rome. I suggest it be the first thing you do before seeing the sights in more detail. The food was surprisingly good and authentic, rather than touristy. Our guide Claudio was fun and informative and took great care of the group. Highly recommended.

The tour is a must if you are visiting Rome. Me and my husband booked it to entertain our 11 years old daughter, but we loved it as much as she did. The ride was nice and easy, it covered a lot of historical sites and was very interesting and informative. Our tour guide Marco was great. Thank you for such enjoyable morning-afternoon in Rome.

Gary M, Oct 2017
We arrived in Rome on Monday afternoon and took the trip Tuesday morning, really enjoyed our trip with our guide Tony who was interesting and made the trip fun too, we had a few giggles along the way. We was lucky as there only one other couple with us so went out our pace. Tony took us to all the main places and then other places we would never have found if we hadn't gone on the bike ride. This was great for as we was in Rome for 5 days in total so went back over the week to many of the places we had visited on the bike tour to have a good look round. The trip included breakfast at a small café, coffee and croissant - delicious we made sure we went back to sample some more cakes! and then pizza - made in front us and ice cream near the fountain in the afternoon. Highly recommend this trip, we are in our 50's and the whole experience was at a good pace and really enjoyable. Helped by the lovely Tony 10/10

This is an excellent way to see Rome and hear about the ancient history of the city. Tour guides were most friendly and knowledgeable. I recommend this tour as a MUST to do!

Great tour with a great guide Renato. He spoke perfect English and was really enthusiastic, giving just the right amount of detail about the sights we were seeing. He made it an absolute pleasure.

Peter S, Aug 2017
The tour and the food stops are great. Cycling over that distance is much better than walking. We actually arrived 30 mins late but the lady at the shop took the time to cycle with us to catch up with the rest of the group. Outstanding!

Jenny L, Aug 2017
Absolutely loved this tour. We had a little stress getting there as we had to wait ages for a bus to the centre from our accommodation but we rang the number and were assured they would wait. We were so grateful. We were a family of four with children 10 and 14 and it was a perfect way to see a lot of the city after a long haul flight. The pace was perfect and the food stops along the way were ideally timed and delicious - coffee and croissants, yummy pizza and gelato. The head phones worked perfectly and the commentary interesting and engaging. I'd highly recommend.

Lucia stevenson S, Jul 2017
My 12 year old daughter and I really enjoyed this cycle trip. Our guide was fantastic and took us round the back streets of Rome where we had the chance to sample pizza, ice cream, coffee etc. His commentary made the cycle so interesting as we learnt about life in Roman times and through the ages.

shrkfans, Jun 2017
This bike tour hit most of the sights to see in Rome. The guide while riding the bikes spoke to us through a wireless radio. This was annoying because there was a lot of static and it was hard to hear. I have taken bike tours before with out this system and they were much more enjoyable. The food stops on this tour were awesome. The little cafe where we stopped had the best cappuccino I had ever had. There croissants were great also. We also stopped for pizza and gelato, both were very good.

HelloHelena, Jun 2017
We loved Marco!!! He made our trip so much fun and personable. There were 4 couples total including us so it felt nice and small. I thought it was going to just be a bike tour, and was a little nervous knowing there were tons of people, but Marco knew exactly where to navigate us safely and efficiently. The food we stopped at were AMAZING. We had espresso/cornetto, best crispy potato pizza, and my husband's favorite gelato shop San Crispino. We can't stop talking about how much we loved this tour! Thanks again Marco :
This is the second time we've done...
Mrs M, May 2017
This is the second time we've done an organised cycling tour of a European City and it was amazing, surpassing the great experience we had in Berlin last summer. The guide was extremely knowledgeable as well as being entertaining and we learnt a great deal about one of our favourite cities. I particularly liked the use of a radio mike and headphones which meant everyone could hear what was being said. Highly recommend this tour. The food was lush!
Absolutely fantastic experience...
Debbie S, May 2017
Absolutely fantastic experience. Would definitely recommend anyone to do this tour at the beginning of their visit to Rome as the tour gives you an rough idea of the layout of the city and what sights there are to see. Our guide, Matt, made the tour such fun and he was also so knowledgeable about Rome, the history and culture. The tastings were also delicious and interesting, especially re the gelato! The 3 hours went far too quickly and I would like to ensure anyone nervous about riding a bike in Rome - don't be! Matt made it a very safe experience. I cannot rate this tour high enough - best ever.

Our tour leader was great and the food was wonderful and alone worth the cost of the tour
Rome is a beautiful, yet crazy...
Scott_M, May 2017
Rome is a beautiful, yet crazy place. Cars, people, vespas everywhere. So why on earth risk riding a bike through the madness? The answer is this tour, with Matt at the helm. Not once did we feel unsafe. If anything we felt like we were the ones leading the traffic. This tour is a great intro to Rome. With many staples of Rome's cuisine offered, and several of the city's most iconic landmarks visited, Matt provides his new friends with the knowledge to get the most out of this amazing city. Grazie Matt
We have done bike tours all over...
Jim_K, Apr 2017
We have done bike tours all over, but I have to say we were leery of biking in Rome traffic, but Matt guided us through with ease. It was a great way to get an overview of the ancient city and surrounding areas, which made it much easier to then go back and explore in depth. We learned a lot about the history and finer points of pizza and gelato and the differences from region to region in Italy. Beautiful Spring weather didn't hurt!
