With one of us pregnant and both wildly out of shape, we'd been worrying about keeping up with this bike tour. Well, our fears were unfounded. Leah wasn't the only pregnant woman in our group, and neither of us had any problems biking at all. The rides are slow and short. The only difficult thing is navigating through some of the crowds. Mario, our tour guide, was fantastic and spoke enthusiastically about the art and architecture. We learned the layout of historic Florence and gained a valuable perspective to carry with us through the many museums around the city. If you're going to take this tour, do it at the beginning of your trip. You'll appreciate everything more.

This was the greatest thing I did on my trip to Italy! Vanessa was an amazing guide and gave us plenty of places to go after the tour. Definitely begin with this when you arrive. We felt completely safe and almost like locals by the end of it. I learned all about Florence's history, and this tour made it one of my favorite places. I will definitely go back to Florence, and I will definitely take advantage of their great services again.

AWESOME!!! We were worried that the tour might get cancelled because my husband and I were the only people signed up for the tour but they still proceeded. Our tour guide, Mario was wonderful. Very informative and interesting. He took us around and stopped here and there to point our different points of interest. It was just myself, my husband, and Mario - and we didn't skimp on anything just because of the small crowd. The best part was getting to see the first work of Michelangelo - a wooden crucifix. Then he took us to a gelato place off the beaten path that makes all natural flavors. Green apple was out of this world! And, the gelato was included in the tour price. Great tour if you are new to Florence. I would say you need to be comfortable on a bike because you are biking most of the time on the street in traffic. WE LOVED IT!!

Tour guide was informative but did not speak loudly--difficult to hear her. Bikes were great and we hit all the sights! Would recommend
