I would do this again!!!😁 - This tour gave much more than I ever expected? Alessio was absolutely incredible, he did a great job of explaining anything and made us feel safe and comfortable the whole time! The views were incredible the caves were scary but incredible to see and experience.

Far exceeded my expectations! Gorgeous scenery, amazing history, beautiful nature. - It's not often that a tour completely exceeds our expectations, but this one did! It was SO much better than I thought it would be. The visit to the catacombs was fascinating (and creepy!). Then we were assigned our e-bikes and we rode for over 2 hours, going over 8 miles. We rode through many different areas and on various surfaces, including the ancient cobblestones of the Appian Way passing old tombs and mausoleums, on a path along original Roman aqueducts, on narrow dirt trails, and through traffic on newer parts of the Appian Way. The bikes were easy to use and very safe. Our guide was super friendly and a font of historical knowledge. I should mention it IS important to have at least some level of fitness -- the pedal-assist sure helps with the few hills, but you still need to be able to competently ride a bike. Be sure to take a few minutes to learn how to shift gears and change power speeds. This was a FANTASTIC way to see some less-touristy areas of Rome, while getting out into the beautiful countryside and getting in some exercise. I HIGHLY RECCOMMEND!

Rome bike tour on a perfect day - Educational, fun and friendly. Manu is excellent guide who was able to show us a part of Rome we would ordinarily never be able to experience. His knowledge, enthusiasm and passion for Rome was superb. We look forward to doing another trip in the future.

Great ride in the Rome countryside. - We had a great time on our tour with Emmanuel. As we drove out of the city, he gave us interesting and historical information on sites. We loved seeing the catacombs- very informative. The e-bike made the ride enjoyable. And the ancient Rome sites we stopped and learned about on the ride were amazing. Some things we appreciated: This tour was private, just the 2 of us which allowed Emmanuel to tailor things to our interests. We appreciated his knowledge of both Italian and Roman history. Emmanuel knew how to set up and take memorable pictures. Thanks Emmanuel!!
