Full description

The meeting point inside the historical city walls of Florence is in the authentic and quiet neighborhood of Oltrarno. From here, ride outside Florence through a prestigious residential area to reach the pristine Tuscany rolling hills.  The bike tour starts with a 2 km uphill ride, frequent stops will be made to enjoy the views on the way up to the top of the hill. Once you arrive at the top, you will be riding your bikes through the neighborhood of the local Florentine nobility and their villas, making your way to a famous Renaissance villa tucked away in the hills beyond Florence.   Stop and tour their Italian-style gardens before continuing on to your wine and olive oil tasting. Pair your wine with a light Tuscan snack comprised of local products. All products are produced on the premise and being such a small family production, everything is organic and sustainable. Your return leg back to Florence will take you by the spectacular Piazzale Michelangelo, one of the best views of Florence where you can stretch your legs and capture some pictures. Continue downhill from there and back into Florence, finishing in the San Niccolo area.

We loved our tour with Guiseppi. He was so enthusiastic, knowledgeable and great with pacing the tour with stops. I had an e-bike which was great for me since I haven't ridden a lot lately. It is up and down hills and from traffic to countryside. He was very good at keeping us safe and attending to any needs we might have. Highly recommend this bike tour and Guideppi as your guide!!
