Veronica was absolutely wonderful and fun! A great way to see Florence and some fabulous history along the way!

Great guide who made the tour very interesting. Friendly people at the office too. Great location to start the tour.

Elin S

The guide was unenthusiastic and it was difficult to understand the English in the earpiece. And while biking, if you were in the back you did not here anything

james_d

The ride was so nice. Our guide was a wonderful lady with excellent historical descriptions of all the sights. Our group was like a team guided through the top things to see in Florence. That afternoon and next day we visited all the places she took us by foot. Excellent experience to say the least. My wife was unsure she could do it before we started, but there where enough stops to make it easy and enjoyable for her. My 23 year old daughter loved the beautiful trip.

Great way to see the city of Florence! Informative tour guide that takes you to all the main attractions where you can decide to return to see more

Tour guide was very knowledgeable and interesting. Enjoyed seeing many sights in Florence not reachable by car. It was very crowded most places and challenging to maneuver bike through people and vehicles.

Janette_R

Loved biking the streets of Florence, weaving in and out of the bustling city. Our guide was wonderful too. This is a fantastic way of seeing Florence
