Overview
Explore the best countryside surrounding Florence and Tuscany on an E-bike, in just 2.5 hours and about 7 miles distance.
Experience a peaceful small group (max 10 guests) guided e-bike ride from the central but authentic Oltrarno area of Florence to venture into the Tuscan Hills with a stop to savour extra virgin olive oil with fresh homemade bread at a countryside venue that is also an olive oil producer.
NOTE: On Mondays, the venue is closed, so we will have a high-quality artisan Florentine gelato OR a traditional Italian breakfast at an artisan pastry shop instead! (depends on the opening of the shops)
We will take a look at their olive orchard and learn about natural olive oil harvest and production.
You will have the chance to see the most hidden corners of the Florentine hills and Tuscany: so much greenery, olive groves, and tiny roads passing by San Miniato al Monte hillside Church, the best and least touristy viewpoint over Florence.
What's included
E-bike and helmet
Professional guide
on Mondays we will have an artisanal gelato instead of the olive oil
Olive oil tasting with bread (except Mondays)

What to expect
Porta Romana

During the first part of the bike ride we will pass through the ancient and massive gate of Porta Romana. This used to be the main entrance to Florence during the Renaissance, and it's still surrounded by the 13th-century city walls that can only be seen in this part of town!
Villa del Poggio Imperiale
10m
After the first hill that we'll climb to get out of town, we'll reach this impressive historical Villa that used to be the holiday residence of the Medici family - on top of the hill and immersed in beautiful countryside
Basilica San Miniato al Monte
15m
Admire the best view of Florence from the top of San Miniato al Monte, the oldest Abbey in the city.
Chiesa di San Matteo in Arcetri
5m
We will pass by an ancient Tuscan Village where Galileo Galilei used to live, and also see his star observatory immersed in the hills
