“Amazing self guided e-bike tour with spectacular views of Florence & the Tuscan countryside! Everything from preparations to check in , riding & drop off went very smooth due to great service & instructions. Winery was beautiful & relaxing reward after the more challenging part of the rlde. Just want to advise that even though you are on E-bikes this ride is not easy, lots of steep inclines up & down, & not always smooth surfaces. Great adventure!”

“We met up with Nadia on a drizzly morning but she thoughtfully provided ponchos. We were lucky that there was no one else on our tour but our small group of 3. Nadia was informative, interesting and fun, answering all our questions and making sure that we had a good all round impression of the City. I would not hesitate to recommend Nadia and this tour.”
