Bike tour on Via Appia Antica 😊 - Wonderful experience. The e-bike was absolutely fine. Via Appia Antica is great. However, you should already be an accomplished cyclist. Then nothing stands in the way of a great trip

Friendly service, good... - Friendly service, good mountain bikes and the Appian Way is stunning. The cobbles are bumpy but you can ride around most of them. Don’t forget to buy return bus tickets in advance for journey back into Rome. Highlight of our trip!

Gorgeous day along the Via Appia - The bikes are good, comfortable. The Via Appia is gorgeous! But the big stones are hard to bike over (you can go in the dirt path on the side because the patches of big stones aren’t that long). Trust me, you want an electric mountain bike unless you are a pro bicyclist. I did Via Appia and the Acueduct park but there is a stretch in the directions given connecting the two areas that is under construction and closed to all traffic so for a while I had to navigate on my own (a detour was not obvious). The acueductos are nice but I sort of wish spending more time on Via Appia since some of the streets in between were very heavily trafficked and kind of dangerous. But I enjoyed it very much. What would make it even better is if the bikes had a cellphone holder so I can just follow the map while biking and not have to stop every 5 mins to take my phone out of my pocket to look at the map. The attendant was very pleasant and knowledgeable 🫶

Via appia by electric bike - Our guide Noam introduced us to the via appia by electric bike. His explanations and good humor allowed us to have a very nice experience. It adapts to the level of participants. This is a great activity.

Beautiful but beware - The Appian Way is beautiful. The bikes we rented were perfectly serviceable. We asked for helmets (they were available but not offered at first). They may or may not have been cleaned between uses. The road is crazy bumpy in spots - be ready for that! Also - make sure to arrange your return transportation *before* you go!!! We were very nearly stranded there on a Sunday afternoon, as there are no taxis and cell coverage is very spotty.

Interesting excursion, if necessary also without bike - Unfortunately, we arrived in rain and had to wait until the rain stopped. The rainy season was at our expense, so we could only use the time left after the rain. However, riding the path with e-bikes requires a lot of force, the wheels often slipped from the thick stones into the sandy joints. For people who do not have much strength, I think this kind of leisure cycling is too demanding. The route is also not very varied overall, in my opinion a one and a half hour walk would be quite enough to get a good impression. The catacombs can also be easily reached on foot. The staff was very nice, The cafe on site is rustic, overall friendly and the selection ok. The bike rental company offered helmets and rain cover on request.
