About
We provide everything you need for an unforgettable self guided and roadside assisted electric bike tour through the majestic Tuscan countryside surrounding Florence. With the freedom to explore at your own pace and boosted by our top quality e-bikes, you'll meander your way through cypress tree forests, olive groves and vineyards, little villages and hamlets with their ancient churches, monasteries, amphitheatres and delicious restaurants! You can sample the EV olive oils and locally produced wines, meet the owners of an organic Chianti vineyard and have the option to cool off in their outdoor swimming pool. Our route utilises the cycle path network to get you out onto the quieter country roads quickly and on the way back the cycle path route traverses the River Arno and up to Piazzale Michelangelo for great views of the city up close. The map works offline on your phone, we provide phone holders for the bikes and we are always on hand to make sure your ride goes smoothly.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What a great day out! We turned up without a reservation on the off chance that there would be 2 bikes available. We were gutted to be told that as today was the last day of the season, the bikes were not charged. We left to go in search of another rental place but John discovered 2 bikes that were fully powered so came to catch us!
Brilliant day out. Great quality bikes and amazing route. Fab pit stop at a vineyard and easy to follow route home.
Thank you so much John. Enjoy your rest!
Julia and Neil.

What a wonderful experience in visiting Florence. The ebikes are easy to use and help you get up those hard hills. The route took us through a beautiful scenic route stopping for a vineyard visit. The staff there we're very helpful and nice. It was very busy in the city so you need to be biking and watching your map very carefully. Please make sure your phone is charged fully because the tour takes a good 6 hours. There is no parking hardly by the
tour office just fyi. Thanks again!

We had a great time. The GPS system was great and easy to use. The scenery and winery were so beautiful. I especially liked that it was self guided so we could stay and leave at the stops at our leisure.

Awesome experience and I highly recommend this self guided bike tour. Thanks to the genius of the tour creator John, and his amazing clear briefing, an awesome e-bike for all terrain and some smart map software the route is simple to follow. Bring comfortable bike shoes, water and snacks and your off.

This bike ride experience was awesome! We strongly recommend it. The electric bikes we used were amazing and perfect for the terrain we rode on. John the business owner and creator of the self guided bike route is top class. The app we used was so clear and easy to use. Bring good comfy shoes, sunscreen, water and snacks - the ride is 30km and go at your own pace. We loved it

Absolutely fabulous.
A little intimidating at first but we’ll worth the 5 minutes of insecurity.
The orientation was very thorough and detailed. Definitely make sure you have a smartphone for the map and route.
The ride was not for a beginner or for a leisurely freewheel in the park, but an incredible tour through areas that not most that visit will see. Spectacular scenery and historic buildings certainly impressed. Certainly a little of everything on the route.
The equipment was good quality and the value was definitely on par.
Definitely recommend.

Amazing! The tour host John is probably the most optimistic person I’ve ever seen. Always being happy. The tour contains magnificent views and challenging ramps and down paths which is thrilling and fun. The e-booster really save me today when it comes to uphill.
The vineyard is serene and beautiful, with great wine and dessert.
This is a combination of conquest, sightseeing and taste. I personally believe this is the best way to explore Florence.

You absolutely should be skilled on a bike to do this ride. I have an e-bike I ride at home a lot and this was challenging for me and I often felt like I was not skilled enough to be doing it. It made me wonder if anyone ever has second thoughts and turns around. There is a lot of riding on narrow streets with other cars (and even buses) and while others said they got used to it with time, that wasn't the case for me. I was scared much of the time. And at the end, when you are tired, you are riding through the city with pedestrians, other cyclists, and traffic too. I also think people should know that we were gone from 10:30 until 4:30, with about 90 minutes spent at the winery and the rest of the time riding. I'm not sure how many miles total it is but it's a lot and these bikes are pedal assist that require you to pedal to get the boost and there is no throttle with the ability to "coast" like on newer e-bikes. The ride is very hilly and while the bikes did okay going up, going down some of the steep hills (there is one right after you leave the winery) was kind of scary to me.

The quieter parts of the ride and the parts on a true bike path were lovely. And the winery is a fabulous resting spot. The two of us shared a platter and probably should have gotten one for each of us because you really work up an appetite. So be prepared to spend $40 for food and drinks, or bring snacks along. And definitely bring a LOT of water. He told us where to stop to get water, but we passed it and didn't know it so we just had one bottle until we got to the winery and we really could have used more. The app was glitchy at times too, and we took a wrong turn once, down a steep hill, and then had to get back up which was challenging because you're not starting from a flat point. Anyway, all of the reviews here are so glowing, I think it's important to hear from someone who didn't have an easy time of it. I will definitely remember it, though!

Everything was well explained in advance of the tour and thoroughly discussed in the briefing on the day. The bikes are new, with top of the line Bosch Performance CX motors, which do much better than "okay" at tackling hills! The throttle version is not legal in Italy or most of Europe. Generally people going on a bike ride expect and enjoy to pedal. The app is not glitchy. You have the bikes until 6pm, so it could have been 3 hours at the winery, even at the slow pace you made. Everyone knows to bring water, but I reminded you of this at the briefing and the free drinking water stop is marked on the map in big, unmissable letters "WATER" and THEN I showed you a photo of that water stop and where it is and told you to drink some and fill your bottle... How you describe the tour is either exaggerative or inaccurate and I wonder if you were actually following the map. Remember... **YOU MUST BE A REGULAR / SEMI REGULAR BIKE RIDER WITH A GOOD LEVEL OF BIKING ABILITY TO DO THIS ACTIVITY** **YOU MUST HAVE A MODERATE LEVEL OF PHYSICAL HEALTH AND FITNESS** **YOU MUST BE A POLITE, EASY GOING SORT OF PERSON WITH A POSITIVE ENERGY ON THE DAY OF YOUR TOUR** **YOU MUST HAVE AN AVERAGE, OR BETTER LEVEL OF SELF AWARENESS, SELF ORGANISATION AND SELF PRESERVATION TO DO THIS TOUR**
