Traveler reviews
Great experience, even in the heat
I am never disappointed with Fat Tire Bike Tours. Great experience! Our guide Claudia was very informative and fun. Loved the view & vibe at our aperitivo stop. I booked an e-bike which was a great choice with temps near 100. Highly recommend!
Rain or Shine, this is a great bike tour!
We booked the private sunset tour, and our guide was Benedetta. She was so warm and personable. She provided so many interesting details about Florence. Even with a light rain shower, we pushed on to complete the tour, and Benedetta checked on us at every stop to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying the tour. Seeing Florence in the evening by bike is so much fun...less crowds, for sure. I recommend this tour!
Avoid
Avoid. Unscrupulous business. Dismal signage. Discourteous staff. I wasted my entire evening in Florence.
Lovely evening ride through the most interesting places in Florence
Very interesting stories about the city- not found in history books. Good bikes and nice red wine in a nice park on the river bank. Guide was excellent
Not as good as we hoped
The idea of nighttime tour was good and the route covered a lot of Florence. However the bikes we used did not have working lights and it was difficult to hear the guide which spoiled the experience for us.
