Must do! Great guide! - Giuseppe was our guide and was amazing! He took care of our little group (just 7 people!) as we climbed the hills out of busy Florence (a little intimidating for someone who doesn't usually ride busy roads) to escape into the quite lanes beside the city. He shared the right amount of history and fun facts, while also giving us quiet to enjoy nature sounds. The hill climb away from the city (plenty of breaks) does take some effort, but if you are moderately fit and comfortable biking, this shouldn't be more than some good exercise. I did bring my bike shorts even for this short ride (4miles over 3ish hours) with lots of stops (and was glad that I did!) Perfect 1/2 day activity from 9:15 am - 1 pm with light wine, meats, cheese, honey, and olive oil. The vegetarians get a wider selection of cheeses, which was enviable! Highly recommend this tour or a longer one farther from the city if you have time with this same company; I plan on doing that next time I'm in Florence!

Beautiful bike ride and lunch! - Our bike tour was the highlight of our trip! We loved trying out e-bikes, the scenery and the farm were all great! We didn’t know what to expect at the “farm” for lunch and it was a beautiful setting with a fantastic lunch, wine and an interesting tour of the farm.

Not to miss! - We had a lovely time on the half day tour. Our guide Claudio was brilliant. He had so much knowledge about the City and it's history and was very passionate about it.
The views were spectacular. It was a lovely way to spend a morning getting to know the City and surrounding areas.

Enjoyable ride outside of Florence - Had a great ride with a small group of people. Our guide was knowledgeable and likeable. The ride wasn't very long but the hills were challenging. It was good to get away from the crowds in the city.

Tourist Trap - the pictures are misleading - Tourist trap - the pictures are misleading. I have been on multiple biking wine tours in my life and this was by far the worst. We hardly left Florence, and it was more of a city bike tour than a "Tuscan Country" bike tour. I think the title "Tuscan Country Bike Tour" is misleading because you barely leave the city and briefly look out into the countryside at a distance. Also, the bikes were in poor condition. My bike chain broke which caused the tour to stop for 30+ minutes as the guide fixed the chain. I would not recommend this tour to anyone.
