Best way to spend an afternoon in Rome.

We really enjoyed riding to and around the Borghese Gardens with Giorgio. The bikes worked well and the tour was quite interesting with Giorgio explaining some of the historical points of the park. The weather was absolutely the best and many Romans and tourist were out enjoying this absolutely stunning park.
