Best e-bike tour in Florence - Highly recommended for all lovers of cycling, nature, gastronomy, and adventure. You must be a cyclist and know how to handle a bike well in various conditions, including roads, climbs, and groups. The experience is unique, with beautiful views of Florence, scenery reminiscent of a Van Gogh painting, and top-quality service and attention to detail in the culinary experience.

Great Tuscan Wine Bike Tour -
We had an amazing time on our e-biking tour through Tuscany! Our guide, Davide, was absolutely fantastic — knowledgeable, engaging, and so much fun to spend the day with. He shared great insights about the region, made sure everyone was comfortable on the bikes, and kept the energy high from start to finish. The scenery was breathtaking, and the whole experience felt both adventurous and relaxed. Highly recommend this tour and especially Davide!
🌿 Short & Warm Review (for Google/TripAdvisor):

Beautiful view and amazing day! - Was a fantastic day and amazing views of Florence. I am not an experienced bike rider but survived the day and had a lot of fun! The views from the Chianti area are so beautiful and well worth the bike ride up. The electric bikes certainly make it a lot easier than it would be on a regular bike.

Amazing day out in nature through the Tuscan countryside - Amazing day out of the city exploring the Tuscan countryside via the e-bikes. Michaela was a great guide, showed us some extra special spots and views. Overall excellent value for money, restaurant served good food and the wine was great. Overall highly recommend if you’re looking for a great day out of the busy tourist centre with some time overlooking beautiful vistas.

Great time! Beautiful scenery! - We had a wonderful time! Loved seeing the country side. The e-bikes were a little tricky for some. The introduction to the bikes was quick and we had one person try to make it up the first hill without the assist on, several didn’t understand the gears and were worn out with the strenuous peddling up hill( a little more time with instruction at the beginning for non pros to understand would be helpful.)
I’m a very short legged person at 5’2” and 57 years I struggled to be able to easily hop off and on the bike and even fell over (fortunately into grass) at one spot were I wasn’t able to step onto level or higher ground(curbs were nice for me to be able to pull up next to so I could get one foot on it to prop during stops.)
The first wine tasting was great. A short info session, wine tasting and a light meal.
One suggestion I would have for our tour was the ride after our first wine tasting. It would have been wonderful to have more time to stop for photos. There was more beautiful hill sides and a waterfall that we sped past to get to a second wine tasting that was more of just drinking a glass of wine and sitting around a table than a wine taste. I would have preferred more time going slowly and having a few stops for photos on that last part of the journey. Overall an enjoyable excursion.

Experience advised riding a bike and on busy streets - If you are comfortable riding a bike, including in an urban environment around busy city streets and have some reasonable physical stamina, this tour is a wonderful way to visit the beautiful Chiant area outside of Florence. The wine tasting and lunch was very nice. The scenery was gorgeous. The tour guide provided excellent history on Florence and the local culture. Just be sure you are comfortable riding a bike in a busy setting with cars and buses sharing the road with you!

It was great for the sight seeing of Tuscany country side, but perhaps another tour guide would be better - It was a partial e bike assistance but it wasn’t the kind of e bike I was thinking it would be, I was dissatisfied with how little it helped you. I also told them I am gluten free and vegetarian and it wasn’t easy for them to accommodate, I also mentioned I would like to have something instead of wine and they gave me wine both places. The tour guide also could have been much better! He was not very passionate. He didn’t give good signaling for turns, and the group kept getting lost.

Fast Ride & Missed Moments - The scenery in Chianti is undeniably stunning, and the e-bike route itself had great potential. Unfortunately, the pace of the tour made it difficult to truly enjoy the experience. Our guide was courteous, but seemed impatient with the group and maintained a speed more suited to a race than a leisurely countryside ride. It often felt like we were in the Tour de France - eyes glued to the road, with little chance to take in the views.
There were no meaningful stops to learn about the region or its landmarks, and the wine tastings, while pleasant, lacked any real explanation of what we were drinking or what food was being served. It would have added a lot to have some context or storytelling along the way.
Also worth noting: bathroom breaks were few and far between, and it would be helpful if the tour included a heads-up about that in advance.
Overall, it was a beautiful ride - but one that could have been greatly improved with a slower pace, a few more stops, and some thoughtful commentary to connect us with the place we were speeding through.
