A wonderful way to see the city with a fantastic guide - This was such a wonderful innovative way to see the city and with the most wonderful guide. Luigi was informative, funny, interesting and welcoming.
I loved the way we were given little headphones to hear him as we rode along and stopped at different points, so that he didn’t have to shout and we didn’t miss a thing.
The electric bikes took a moment to get used to but once underway they were great. Luigi advised us when to change the gears to make going up hill effortless. The view from the top of the hill was breathtaking. Cycling around the city was a wonderful way to experience it without being locked away on a tour bus. And we could explore the little back streets as well as the main tourist stops.

So glad we took this tour! - Our guide, Dimitri, was wonderful! Our group was large for conditions (very crowded in city due to holiday), but he was attentive to the needs of the group and extremely knowledgeable. The view from Piazzalo Michelangelo is not to be missed. Bikes were easily managed. We would highly recommend this tour.

Fantastic Tour - This is a really fun way to explore Florence and learn its history! The e bikes are a lot of fun and you get to see sites and neighborhoods you probably wouldn't just walk to. We were initially a little intimidated by the traffic, but our guide knew the quieter streets to take so we were never nervous. Our guide was very knowledgable about the area's history, and pointed out a lot of interesting stories and facts. This is a great tour to cover a lot of ground and rest your walking feet.

Evening cycle over Florence. - The tour leader was very informative with interesting information about the city and certain past residents. Be prepared for some awkward traffic situations in the narrow streets. We were trapped behind a bus and were anxious about losing sight of the group at 1 point, especially as we rarely notced the leader looking back to check we were still there. If you are only accustomed to quiet country lanes this tour may be somewhat hairy and you might feel safer if you stay directly behind the leader, not at the back of the group. The early evening view overlooking Florence, the river Arno and Ponte Viechio was well worth the trip. My partner found the green bikes were very comfortable for the rough medieaval roads. However, at 5'1", I needed to have a citybike. If you dislike the idea of 2+hrs over incredibly rough surfaces on a narrow tyred less well-suspensionsed bike, be prepared to sit with the handlebars of the green bikes above your shoulder height. A worthwhile interesting trip, with added adrenalin boosters!.

Nice tour around Florence. - Enjoyed the tour, have done lots of e-bike tours before but don’t think these bikes are not suitable for going through the city. They have too much propulsion and so u are constantly on the brakes when at low speed - found them tricky when going through VERY busy pedestrian areas. Also no helmet given, and we forgot to ask.
Guide was good and was great to see so much of the city.

Bicycle broken down or want to get lost booked this excursion - No training on cycling regarding fit and features of electric assistance.
In our group of 7 people, 2 bikes broke down. The first lost electrical assistance for half the journey, the second the chain disembarked and the guide tried to put it back without success and did not seek assistance....the person had to return as he could for the rest of the journey...really incompetent...
Moreover in the group 3 people could not follow the group due to heavy traffic and got lost ... the guide wanted to abandon them but following the insistence of the other users she was picked them up 3-4 corners away. In short, it guides the way without really looking behind or giving indications despite the micro-emitter system.
The only positives that explain the second star are the part of the stunning view of the city at Michelangelo Square. The part about bike paths was good too.

The tour was very heavy... - The tour was very heavy on history and dates. Was more of a history lesson than a tour to acquaint ourselves with the city. We asked partially thru that he not speak so much about history and dates but that lasted 5 minutes. He spoke non stop the full 2 hours but everyone had unplugged our buds for some quiet time. The guide was very polite and kind. The bikes were great.

Bike Tour Gone Wrong - Our electric bike tour in Florence was a major letdown, even though the guide was fantastic. The group was far too large (over 15 people), and shockingly, they allowed a 12-year-old child to join. The child fell twice and repeatedly slowed the group down, turning a 2-hour tour into a frustrating 2.5-hour ordeal.
The operator should enforce a minimum age of 14 and limit groups to 10 people max. The guide did their best, but poor planning ruined what could have been a great experience.

Do not book this one - Way too much talking by the guide. The overall historical stories would have been enough, but to ride a short distance and then stand in the sun while the guide was in the shade for 15 minutes on at least 3 stops was unacceptable. He also never looked back to check on the group. A family of 6 lagged behind because the kids were slower. The guide continued at 20 Kmh. The bikes were old and not great. Toward the end, he just raced back. I would not recommend this company at all.
