Great way to see the city. The App was a bit clunky, and we had a bike chain come off, but reasonable price. We couldn’t find a guided bike tour, so booked this rental.

Ian_L

A beautiful route around the city. Easy to navigate. Great value. Bikes were good to ride and being app based meant we rode at our pace.

Carla S

Fun to ride bikes at our own pace without a guide to interrupt our pace. We were able to see interesting places away from the crowds at the leaning tower of Pisa. The disadvantages are that it was somewhat difficult to follow the map at times and we seemed to end up retracing the same trail except that we were on the opposite side of the street, and not every trail is bike friendly. At times we had to bike on the congested streets and through some very crowded pedestrian traffic. So if you are willing to take a few risks biking in crowded areas n enjoy biking at your own pace, this is a good adventure to try when in Pisa.

We had a brilliant time in Pisa on electric scooters. We hired them for three hours. It was easy to learn how to use them and the scooters worked really well. It was so helpful using the self guided tour - the phone app was good and we were able to attach the phone to the handlebar. There were interesting stopping points with information. The staff were very friendly and helpful. This was a great way to see more of Pisa!

Marc k

Nice bike rental with easy booking system. Good bikes and great way to explore the city. Centrally located and good tips for use of app.

As a family of five ( three children aged 14, 11 and 8) we hired bikes to cycle around Pisa - what a great experience and definitely the best way to see the most of Pisa, especially with children! Smile and Ride were so helpful and the app they provided was easy to follow allowing us to see the best sights. I would highly recommend! Ps a great price as well.

Janice_C

A great way to get around Pisa, especially in the sweltering heat, but the app is a little funky and not always easy to follow. The owners of the shop are lovely and fluent in English, so just be sure to fully understand how the app works before setting out on your journey.

Suntorytime90

Great staff. Also had a great bicycling and learning experience on the self-tour. It was nice to be able to set our own pace for lunch and everything as well.

EmmaS188

Easy self paced tour that’s gives you an idea of Pisa. The bikes are super comfortable and the app easy to use. I’d recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see Pisa and get a bit of information about key must sees. Good value for money compared to more expensive your options.

DIRK V
