This was a fantastic tour on bike - just wish it could have been longer - it is definitely a leisure bike ride - except for the first hill at the start. Loved the day riding through Tuscany and our tour guide "Bill" was a very good at his job - made us feel very comfortable about being on the... More

Ride was the perfect combination of exercise and sight-seeing, with plenty of stops at photo opportunity spots. Guides were informative and fun to hang out with for the day. Wine tasting and lunch were delicious and definitely a bonus for the trip, we were just expecting to see a little of Tuscany up close. All equipment included, but bring water... More

Took this trip back in April and because I am a terrible procrastinator I am finally getting around to writing this. My girlfriend and I did this bicycle tour on a recommendation of another friend. We had a wonderful time. Neither of us is very athletically inclined and this tour was perfect for us. Our host David made the trip... More

This tour was one of our highlights in Italy. It was easy to find the meeting place in Florence, where Jillian picked us up in the van. One other couple had booked but didn't turn up, so there was only me and my boyfriend on the trip. It was a short drive out of town to the lovely ramshackle farm... More

My son and I did the Bicycle Tuscany one day bike tour with wine tasting and country lunch. Our host and guide David was informative and made it a fun time for everyone. It was a great addition to our trip to Tuscany and gave us a good perspective of the countryside that you couldn't get from a car/bus/train. The... More

This tour was a great experience. David is very friendly and accommodating. He leads a very informative tour. Not only do you ride a bike with some of the most breathtaking views, but you learn some history (at the visit to the winery) and you get to enjoy great food too. I couldn't believe all that was included for the... More
