Wonderful for adults & kids alike! - Our family loved three bike tour. My kid - 12 and 9 - had a blast. Our guide was so knowledgeable and passionate about Florence and it's history. He had so many fun facts. It was wonderful to get the Kai of the land. Since we were only in Florence for 2 days, this bike tour have us a chance to see so much. And it was a great way to get to piazza Michelangelo. We had fun and felt safe too.

Fantastic - Our small group tour was in two sections. The first was with a very knowledgable young gentleman who took us to all the important sites and knew every single piece of history. He was also very pleasant and a good cyclist. You have to be careful biking with the traffic.
The Second optional part of our tour was to cycle up to Piazza Michaelangelo with the owner Julia, who was lovely! Hard work but worth it! You can walk your bike up if you need. Would highly recommend this tour, especially when you first arrived to get to know the various neighbourhoods and important sites to visit on your trip

Excellent tour with terrific tour guide! - We loved our bike tour through Florence and our tour guide, Giulia did a fabulous job! Our family of six with four teenagers all enjoyed the tour and appreciated it being fast paced with high energy. We rode to many of Florence’s historical spots where we stopped so Giulia could share the background and history of each. She was fun, friendly, and patient as the three families on the tour biked along our path. I highly recommend this tour as a fun, interactive way to get to know Florence - especially with older kids.

Florence on a bike - Lorenzo led us on a great tour of the city. Bikes were a great way to see the sights and learn about the history of Florence. My husband, adult son, and I recorded the route on strava so we could return to the locations later.

Great way to see the city - Great way to start our stay in Florence! Lorenzo was our guide and he was so knowledgeable and friendly. The tour was the perfect amount of time and gave us a few ideas of places we wanted to revisit on our own. We went in the morning and it was perfect temperature and the streets weren't too busy. Would 100% recommend!

Lack of responsibility and safety! - I had high hopes for this tour as I generally enjoy bike tours. While our guide was very knowledgeable about Florence, the overall tour felt unorganized and had a lack of responsibility.
1. We had two kids, 7 and 8 and I had reached out about them asking if there were tandem bikes. The answer was no. I then had to ask if there were bikes for kids, they said yes.
1. When we arrived, it took us over 20minutes to get our bikes. The kids got their own bikes but then I saw that some bikes had extra seats in the back. I asked if we could use those bikes instead of having the kids ride their own and only then did they say yes. I felt like there was absolutely no help from the company on making sure we had a good experience with our kids unless we asked.
3. I’m so glad the kids were able to ride with us because the tour includes a massive uphill ride that was not listed in the description. It was 90+ degree weather and a third of the group had to walk up the hill
4. The guide never looked back to make sure the group crossed the street safely or if everyone in the group was following. He just kept going…
5. Someone in our group couldn’t keep up due to the street lights and the guide didn’t notice until 10minutes later. He asked where she was and when I told him he should go look for her, his response was “How?” Luckily, the group member was able to make her way back herself no thanks to the guide.
