Cycle through Chianti from Florence with scenic country roads, castle wine tasting, olive oil, lunch, guides, and e-bike support.

“I highly recommend this tour especially if you want to get out of Florence and explore the countryside without going too far away. I am a solo traveler and I felt comfortable. If you’re like me and need to know all the details before you do something, here is the breakdown: You meet your guide at their storefront. Use the bathroom at a nearby cafe before leaving! Then you walk to a parking lot and get in a sprinter van and drive to the castle. The ride isn’t too long but it’s beautiful. It’s a very windy road! At the castle you’re given a bike, helmet, water, and some safety…”

The tour of the winery and the lunch that followed was fabulous. I can highly recommend this tour. Thank you for a wonderful day 😊👏”

10.Tuscany Bike Tour with Wine, Oil and Food in the Florentine Hills

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 209 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $95

Review of Florence’s Tuscany bike tour with four hills, Chianti wine, olive oil, Tuscan food, villas, and wide city views.

“Great guide with informative stops and picture-taking. Tuscany countryside ride was beautiful, but was preceded/followed by city ride from/to the bike shop. City ride was a bit treacherous trying to dodge vehicles and people. E-bikes (and introductory instruction) worked well, though many folks did just as well without them. Tastings were little more than a glass of wine and olive oil served with a plentiful Italian lunch plate at a restaurant on the edge of town. Meeting point was difficult to find without a business logo to see from the street. This was probably an ideal half-day bike tour, but for more Tuscany countryside and less city riding I would…”

“This was a great afternoon even in the rain. The bikes were great and our guide knew all about Lucca and told us some interesting stories. Our ride to the winery was on country roads with a few hills and I was glad we were on e-bikes! The winery was a wonderful family run vineyard. They treated us like family and gave us lots of snacks to go with the wine. The owner has an old fashioned juke box that is fantastic. He will let you choose a song. I highly recommend this tour.”

Cycle Palermo’s historic center, markets, monuments, harbor, and street food with a local guide on this relaxed three-hour tour.

“Our guide, Paulo, is also a middle school teacher and had a treasure trove of information on the city of Palermo - history and architecture. The starting point was easy to find. The terrain was manageable by all. The shop seems to have a place to store luggage during the tour. One bicycle broke down, but the shop responded quickly. We waited about 10 minutes in the flower market where it was heartening to see a couple of local men with with tools were willing to help. Even with all the unexpected excitement, we still returned on time.”

The old olive mill tour was super special and the local restaurant for lunch was the best food we’ve had so far on our trip to Italy. The e-bikes were very easy to use and we appreciated the extra thoughtfulness with providing a snack and electrolytes. We highly recommend this tour (or another of Marco’s) if you are coming to the Puglia area. Truly an unforgettable experience.”
