Overview

Discover Tuscany and Florence by muscular bike or E-bike, along the amazing hills surrounding Florence and the Chianti Classico wine region.
Thanks to our 30+ years of experience and passion for running bike tours every day in the countryside of Tuscany, we created a half-day and a full-day customised digital map to let you enjoy a special adventure at your own pace.
Remember to bring fully charged phones to make sure you can follow the itinerary!

In minutes, you'll be out of town biking on country roads, checking out the best views over Florence from the hilltops!
In the half-day option (only a muscular bike in the half-day option), you will be exploring the Florentine hills, and the full day will let you explore the beautiful Chianti Classico wine region and stop by an ancient wine and olive oil maker.
If you are not an expert bike rider, you should book the E-bike option as there are many hills on the route!
