Tour in E-Bike con Degustazione d'Olio o Relax in Piscina

I thought this was an incredible bang for our buck! We did the afternoon tour w the pool and aperitivo. Our guide Alessio was super kind and patient, and made sure we got the best out of the experience. Really prioritized relaxing and enjoying the views. As far as the bike ride itself, it was such an amazing experience to leave from central Florence and end up in the beautiful Italian countryside amongst olive trees and vineyards. It was also nice to not have to take the train to another town or anything. You get the best of both worlds here. The end of the tour was along an absolutely beautiful stretch of the Arno on a gravel path. I will say, the ride is not the easiest in the world and I wouldn’t say it’s suited for older folks or people who are not confident on a bike. You go from Florence up to Fiesole which is far uphill then along some steep gravel paths to the pool. The e-bike helps but you are still pedaling. I enjoyed this personally though!

Our bike ride from Florence to Fiesole was easily one of the highlights of our trip. From start to finish, the experience felt thoughtfully planned and genuinely special. The guides were outstanding—friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive—making sure everyone felt comfortable while also sharing fascinating insights about the area’s history and scenery. The ride itself was absolutely beautiful. As we made our way out of Florence, the city gradually gave way to rolling hills, quiet roads, and stunning panoramic views that made every bit of the climb worthwhile. Reaching Fiesole felt like a real accomplishment, and the vistas overlooking Florence were unforgettable. One of the most memorable parts of the day was our stop at a local cantina for an olive oil tasting. It was such a unique and authentic experience. The olive oil was incredibly fresh and flavorful—unlike anything we’d tasted before—and learning about how it’s produced added a whole new level of appreciation. Overall great

This was a great way to get out and see the area around Florence. The ebikes were excellent. I never had to use turbo even though we climbed for quite a bit at the start. I ended up still with at least 80% battery left by the end of the tour. The wine and olive oil tasting & hostess there was great!. That was really nice part of the tour. Things to be aware of. You need to bring your own water and snacks. None is supplied. Also strange that the bikes did not have water holders! And no bags to put anything in. Problem solved if you bring a small pack. Also, the helmets lack a proper front visor so I had to wear my baseball cap underneath the helmet. This could easily be corrected by the company. It would’ve been nice if the guide had to provided more information at various locations. There was a bit but not as much as I would’ve expected. still, this was a great time.

I loved this tour. My husband, boys (18 and 16) and I really enjoyed the bike ride as well as the tasting. My husband and I have done a lot of biking, so I liked the option of using minimal e-bike support and getting to feel like I was climbing the hillside of Florence. My boys (who are very active but rarely bike) thought the e-bike was so much fun and loved how fast they could get up the hills. There were no issues with the condition of the bikes. Our tour guide and the host at the tasting were great. I enjoy getting to talk with locals and hear about their experience living in the area. They also helped me practice a little of the Italian that I had learned. If you like to get outside the city and enjoy exploring areas by bike, this is a great tour for you. With the e-bikes, it can feel like minimal effort or you can challenge yourself and experience the climbs like the local cyclists that you will see on the loop.

We had an incredible time. A bit chilly when we started but once the sun hit and we started warming up it was a beautiful day. Marco our guide adapted to our riding style. The town of Fiesole was quaint with stunning views back to Florence. The olive oil tasting was a real education into the process of making premium olive oil. Christina was delightful. The ride back to town was downhill and flat which we really appreciated after the morning climb. It was a highlight of our trip. Word of caution these are electric pedal assisted bikes and not turn the throttle and go. It will be a workout.

This tour should be The other riders were sent straight onto a busy street in the city. A second rider in oadvertised as for experienced trail riders. We had all done an electric bike tour in Barcelona through city traffic up to the highes point of Mont Juic. The bikes were lightweight and easy to manage. We practiced in an empty piazza before we got onto the streets. From the description of this tour, we were expecting a similar experience. The bikes are this tour were for more advanced riders and were very heavy. One of us quit before we started after she bruised her leg trying to hold up the bike. A second person in our group fell less than a block from the start and tore her pants and knee. She and another rider quit as that point. We lost our money based aon a bad descrsription. The rest of our group had a harrowing experience.Be aware of what you are paying for on this tour.

It was a fun and beautiful tour but I would not advise to take it if you were not familiar with an e-bike. The ride is thru some very uneven roads, including gravel and crowded city traffic. It is really quite dangerous if you don’t know how to use the bike. The scenery and going to the olive farm was informative and scenery was unbeatable. Go for the trip…just be aware of traffic and uneven terrain.

J’avais fait 4 réservations pour deux hommes (entre 1m 76 et 1 m 80 )et nous étions deux femmes ( d’ 1 m 63 ). Les vélos étaient adaptés pour des personnes au dessus d’1m70.. Seuls les hommes ont pu faire la balade. Une fois sur le vélo, la selle baissée a fond, mon amie et moi même ne pouvions toucher le bitume qu’avec la pointe du pied. !!donc pas d’arrêt possible , j’ai C’était trop dangereux d’entreprendre le circuit. D’autant plus que qu’il fallait traverser la ville de Florence en faisant des arrêts aux feux, aux croisements etc.. nous avons dû rester sur place puisque les vélos n’étaient pas adaptés!! Les deux hommes ont fait la promenade qu’ils ont jugé très agréable ( sauf la partie ville !) . Ils ont constaté que nous aurions pris le risque de tomber dans toute la première partie du parcours av La guide était très bien ont ils dit. Nous avons été déçues et frustrées. Pas de remboursement et pas de remplacement d’activités car on avait pas pu anticiper . Beaucoup de regret
