Highly recommend - This was a great tour with a great tour guide. It was nice to see the outer part of the city in the hills away form the crowds. The time of day was perfect. 5pm. When cooled down but riding the bikes allowed for a nice breeze while seeing sites. Riding an e-bike was very helpful going up the hills. Then ended at a beautiful restaurant on a farm and had an olive oil tasting. The guide gave us some interesting history of Florence and some of the sites we stopped at along the journey. Highly recommend this activity.

Fantastic! - We did the 5:00 pm ride - just our family of four and our guide Amar. It was a memorable ride. Amar took us to the various spots of interest, told a lot about the history of the region, and in general was a great guide. The olive oil tasting near the end was just great. Highly recommend this trip to see a different side of Florence!

A little getaway from the city - We recently enjoyed this incredible E-bike tour through the Florence countryside, and it exceeded all our expectations. The highlight was visiting a local farm-restaurant, where we sampled their olive oil (just 1 kind of olive oil), all while learning about traditional olive harvesting. The guide was nice and informative.

Taste of Tuscany - Our recent electric bike tour in Florence with Valerio was an outstanding experience that we highly recommend. Valerio began by thoroughly explaining how to use the bikes and ensured everyone was comfortable before we started. He checked in with us after a short distance, making sure we were all set to begin our journey. His explanations were fluid, understandable, and delivered at a good pace, which made the experience enjoyable and informative. Throughout the tour, Valerio was very helpful, especially when we encountered difficulties with the bikes. He made sure to keep the group together and was conscientious of tourists falling behind. His knowledge of the city was thorough, and he was very open to questions, which made the tour even more engaging. Valerio's engagement with his group was excellent, making the experience interactive and enjoyable. His choice of tasting spots was wonderful, offering beautiful scenery and a delightful experience. In summary, Valerio’s expertise, helpfulness, and engaging personality made this electric bike tour in Florence a memorable highlight of our trip. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Florence.

5 stars - An unforgettable experience! We were amazed to find the Tuscan countryside so close to the city! The scenery was breathtaking! The ebikes were nearly new and well-maintained. Our guide, Callin, shared his passion for cycling along with fascinating historical insights. The olive oil tasting was a delightful bonus. We highly recommend this experience!

Great experience to a beautiful area of Florence! - This was one of the favorite things my family did while on vacation in Italy! Only 2 out of 5 people in our group had e-biked before, but were able to navigate the bikes with a little instruction. It amazed us how quickly we arrived in a more country-like setting after being in the crowds of Florence. The biking was fun, and the olive oil tasting was a pleasant break in a beautiful setting. If we ever return to Florence, we would book again, perhaps for a longer tour to see more. This was the perfect introduction to the region. The ride does take participants into crowded streets on the way to/from the hills, so one would need to be prepared for the traffic.

Do yourself a favor and reserve this experience! - Alexsandro was an excellent tour guide - he first walked us through operating the E-bikes (which I had never used before), and then led us through downtown Florence and then up through the suburbs and finally the beautiful Florentine countryside. On the way we stopped at several historical spots where Alexsandro gave us quite a bit of interesting historical information on Florence, the Medicis, and even agricultural facts (beautiful Cypress trees, capers alongside the road). The highlight? An olive oil tasting at an elegant place. The views were spectacular and I highly recommend the trip - the E-bikes definitely help with the hills so it is not as difficult as it should be. You are treated to wonderful scenery on the way up and down.
