“Nice way to know the city. Very good recommendations from the guide and a great adventure. It rained but we continue with the water and the adventure was even better. Nice view points and the guide knows a lot of languages. The bikes were so good and perfect for the tour. The city is very crowded so I cannot image how a group con ride in the summer. Don’t so this in summer haha because in autumn it was a little bit hard ride on the streets. I think if you prefer meeting the city over the museums this will be the perfect plan for you! I just took that…”

“Our guide spoke excellent English and she was very smart and engaging! She answered all of our history questions and gave us a new information about the city I never knew, even though this was my 3rd time visiting Florence! She made sure our bikes fit well and she offered water and rain ponchos (just in case). I was worried about riding bikes in the city because of the bumpy stone sidewalks and streets but she made sure we all stayed together and crossed streets safely. Would definitely take this tour again! Highly recommend.Read more”

“I have done quite a few Segway tours in different cities. They are an excellent way to get to know a city and learn about it from experts. Segways are also great fun. Valentina our guide was wonderful, she was passionate about Florence and gave a fascinating insight to the city as she expertly and safely guided us around key sites and some lesser known sites also. We were very luck as the other two people booked on the tour did not turn up so in effect we had a private tour. Valentina was very friendly, very pleasant and had a great knowledge of Florence. It was a wonderful afternoon…”
