Traveler reviews
Good experience!
Claudia was a terrific guide! Very funny and informative!
Minimum height required...165cm
Couldn't go on the tour. The guides tried all of the seats that they had, but the E-bikes was too tall for my gf, at 160cm, and another lady at 155cm. Neither could put their feet flat on the ground. I recommend you be at.least 164 5cm due to seat height and extra weight of E-bike.
Manuel. Best guide in Florence!
Manuel was great. Just the right level of information without information overload. We managed to see all of the main sights and even had time to ride up the hill for the amazing view of the entire city. It was more like going on a tour with a well informed friend than a guide. Highly recommend. And if you can, take the E bike option which is needed for going up the hill.
Very nice guide and beautiful tour!
Veronica our guide told us very enthusiastically in very understandable English (the Dutch tours were unfortunately already full). With a nice group of 9 we cycled all over Florence with short fascinating information. Through the the earpiece you could hear her well, even on the road if you had to pay attention to the other traffic. Small bag on your handlebars for a small bottle of water. Super!
My favorite excursion
This was my favorite part of our 10 day 3 city experience. The guilde provided us information about the city of Florence, not just the early history. We learned about the 4 neighborhoods and Florence Soccer/football. If they don’t tell you about it ask. It is very unique to Florence.
