“We had a fantastic time on our tour - great guide and wonderful experience. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, history, and gave great additional notes as we went through the day. We saw a lot of Florence we otherwise would not have and felt this tour was a great value for the price. The hills were no joke and if you are not in shape or an experienced bike rider, this is not the tour for you. I would call this medium to challenging activity level.”
