Traveling in a small group that is led by a professional and certified tourist guide, this pleasant and easy biking tour will introduce you to the main historic sites of the spectacular city center of Florence, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Meeting in the center of Florence, we will start our biking adventure near the ancient Ponte Vecchio, one of Florence’s famous landmarks. Pedaling into the city’s most inner pedestrian area, you will discover narrow streets and hidden gems away from the buzz of cars and busses.
Knowing the best paths through the Florentine maze of alleys, your guide will lead you to the city’s most important sites: the Uffizi Gallery, the pastel-colored Duomo, the Piazza della Signoria with the impressive Palazzo Vecchio, as well as the picturesque streets that frame the Arno River.
Of course, we want you to remember Florence with all its beauty and charm which is why there will be more than enough opportunities to snap your perfect holiday pictures. As we’re biking uphill towards the famous Piazzale Michelangelo, you will see that the view only gets better and better. From medieval castles in the surrounding hills, historic villas and villages to the panoramic view over Florence: Located on a hill south of the Arno River, the world-famous Piazzale Michelangelo promises picture-perfect vistas and makes one of the premium photo locations in all of Italy!
Crisscrossing through the city, this fun and active tour will be enriched by anecdotes about the Florentine culture and its rich and fascinating history.
