Time of our lives!! - What a great experience! Our tour guide Sylvia was amazing!! She was extremely knowledgeable, fun, & made sure we were all safe. The route was perfect. The catacombs were fascinating, and the spritz at the end was well deserved!

Great family day out! - We had a wonderful day with Leon as our guide exploring the outskirts of Rome. It was amazing to think they we travelled the paths that have been used for 2000 years! It was so nice to be out in nature, exercising, seeing green fields and refreshing in the aqueducts. Our two boys - 12 and 16 loved being out and active on the MTB's - much needed adventures for their active bodies and minds. The bikes were great and made the ride easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves nature and wants to get out of the bustle of the city for a few hours whilst still learning about Romes fascinating history.

Best tour we did while we were in Rome. - Great tour! The e-bikes were a blast. The parks and countryside were beautiful. The guide, Bruno, was very informative and helpful.
Lunch was really good.
Had a crash on the bike (my husband got too close!) and Matteo gave me more medical care than the hospital did.
Beautiful way to see the Appian way and get outside the city. Take this tour, you will love it.

Silvia really made the difference - Silvia is quite the guide. Very knowledgeable about what we were seeing such as old roman roads and aquaducts. The ride with her was very leisurely and friendly for all ages. The group we were in was a good mix and we did not lose anyone. Catacomb tour was very fun, but the history can be pretty shocking.
The bikes are also very easy to ride even on bumpy slick roads.
Totally recommend this tour and if you get Silvia, you are in for a treat.

Great experience seeing hidden sites - Tour guide was excellent and did everything he could to make sure we were all together and safe. He was funny and knew a ton about the area. It was a great way to see many parts of the city that you wouldn’t otherwise go to.

Worth every penny! - Brilliant! Leo, our guide, was excellent. It was amazing to be out in the country but so close to the city centre. I hadn't ridden an E-bike before but it was easy once I got the hang of it. The catacombs were fascinating and we saw lots of other interesting things along the way. Our fellow cyclists were friendly and we enjoyed a tasty lunch. If you're reasonably fit, I would strongly recommend it.
