3.Florence Small Group Electric Bike City Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 324 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $58

Ride an electric bike through central Florence and across the Arno, stopping at Medici landmarks, major churches, Ponte Santa Trinita, and Piazzale Michelangelo. Guides such as Rebecca, Marco, Luigi, and Edoardo have earned praise for their city knowledge. Expect traffic, cobblestones, a possible group of up to 20, and a walking tour if rain makes cycling unsafe.

“Pros: - Storefront where tour starts is easy to find. - Guide was very knowledgeable and told us some interesting lesser known facts about Florence. - Tour ended up being a private tour since nobody else showed up - Saw a variety of places which you would not have been able to see by walking only Cons: - Florence is not a very bike friendly city. We were sharing the roads with cars and scooters with no bike lane. There are not clear traffic laws, which was scary at times. The cobblestones are bumpy and uneven. - Was not informed of a weight limit and my husband is 6 ft…”

4.E-Bike City Tour with stop at Piazzale Michelangelo

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 150 reviews · 2 hours · from $34

Ride through Florence’s historic center and up to Piazzale Michelangelo with a local guide such as Francesco, Alessio, or Micaela. You’ll see the Duomo and Piazza della Signoria, learn about Medici Florence, enjoy hilltop views, then finish with a surprise tasting of wine and local food. The e-bikes make the climb manageable, but you must already be comfortable riding in city traffic.

“Admittedly at first we were a bit nervous about riding through the busy bustling narrow streets in Florence, but to our guides credit she confidently lead us to all our sightseeing spots & back to the start in one piece. Really enjoyed the pit stop on the way back for the surprise wine tasting & antipasto board. This was a great way to see Florence. Thank you to Lise our guide, you did a fantastic job 👏🏼👏🏼”
