This was a total blast. Our tour guide Andrea made it fun, safe, and informative. In the 2 hour ride you get to go up the Tuscan hills behind Florence and see the beauty of the city from above and take great pictures. Then you continue up to a church and more panoramic views of the Tuscan hills. 2 hours goes by too fast. The gelato tasting is actually a gift card for a place a couple blocks away for a free scoop. We really enjoyed this experience and would definitely recommend. The E-bike option is a must due to the steep hills, which you don’t feel at all with the electric bike.

This was a highlight experience for us in Florence! Lorenzo is an excellent guide. We pedaled on mostly bicycle friendly multiuser paths. It was especially great to get outside the busy and crowded city and go on some quiet rural roads. I highly recommend this tour!

This is my second time doing this bike tour in Florence, and I highly recommend it! I did it four years ago with my sister, and this year we came back with more family and friends and it was incredible!!! Gabriele was amazing, and even switched up the tour for us so we could do something different this time. Highly recommend!!! Such an amazing way to see Florence. Grazie mille, Gabriele!!

Jacapo was a great guide! He is an informative and engaging storyteller. We believe there could have been more shared along the way to the first stop. It was pretty much 30 minutes before we stopped to see things or learn about places. Also, it should probably be made clearer that this tour is best for experienced bike riders who are comfortable riding on narrow streets and in traffic. The bikes were great and easy to use and the farm visit was a highlight.

A delightful husband and wife from Florence own this e-bike business, Florent which provides e-bike tours and e-bike rentals. The tour is a couple of hours and is easy plus so beautiful. The route is along the Arno River to Michelangelo Pizzale with stunning views of Florence and then on to Acetri where Galileo was exiled. You ride through the Tuscan hills a short distance outside Florence. It makes for a joyful afternoon.

This tour was so much fun and Alessia so very patient and kind. I booked this tour on viator.com, but never received the email so I could review it back in March.
The weather was perfect, organic olive farm/zoo was beautiful and Michaelangelo Square is a great photo opportunity of lovely Florence!
Thank you Alessia (sp) and I have already recommended your tour and Flo Rent to lots of clients.
Oh, and the little restaurant you took us afterwards was delish!

We just returned from a family trip to Italy. We were really excited about this tour and it didn't disappoint! LOVED it! Alexia was our tour guide. She was friendly and very informative. We were able to bike up the hills of Florence on the amazing electric assisted bikes. Beautiful scenery. My family thoroughly enjoyed this and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour. Ask for Alexia, she's amazing!!!

We arrived in Florence and after registering at our hotel we enjoyed a quick lunch and then set off for our tour. Our guide, Alexia was absolutely enchanting, knowledgeable, and conscientious in ensuring our safety throughout the tour. We traveled from one end of the city to the other and off to the hills to an amazing farm that produces olive oil and has a rich history. Alexia walked us around this most amazing property and helped arrange a birthday dinner at the restaurant for our last night in Florence. We ended the tour at a local bar with the most delicious appetizers and great wine! Well worth the price! This tour was one of our highlights of our two weeks in Italy!

Written 29 April 2018
Yes, you would have issues. Even though it is electric bikes, one needs to have the agility to maneuver through traffic and follow the bike in front of you an appropriate distance without getting too behind or too closely. Individuals need to be comfortable on bikes. They help on hills but agility is required
