What a wonderful tour!! The e-bikes made the beautiful hills an easier ride. Giovanni was THE BEST. He explained so much of the history of the area since he is linked to generations from Fiesole. One of the highlights of our tour was the meal of snacks we had from a local farm, which we ate at another local vineyard!! You can see our host Giovanni preparing our meal and two wonderful friends we met on our tour. Make your reservations directly on Giovanni's website. It is THE BEST way to support him and his local business.

This was the highlight of our trip to Italy. The scenery is spectacular! Giovanni is the best guide/host you could ask for. He had so many interesting bits of history to share with us. He knows the area well, it’s been his home his entire life. Eating local foods and wine straight from the farm was very special. The e-bikes are easy to use and make riding the hills a breeze. I highly recommend this activity!

We had a fantastic time on our E-bike tour provided by our superb host Giovanni - it has been a big highlight of our trip! Riding around Fiesole town and country with an E-bike was so pleasant and fun, easily travelling 10s of km without really breaking a sweat. Giovanni was so engaging and knowledgeable, and provided a great deal of interesting information and history about Fiesole and Florence. He lead us safely on the road and we highly enjoyed the delicious range of local produce and wine he provided for lunch. Couldn't recommend it more!

As an American who spoke little to no Italian when I arrived in Florence, I was relieved by Giovanni’s exceptional English. He skillfully incorporated Italian into the tour, which made the experience more immersive and engaging. Beyond that, Giovanni was hands down the best tour guide I’ve encountered during my entire trip to Italy. His sole focus was on making sure we enjoyed ourselves. When he noticed us admiring the countryside, he allowed us to savor the moment. If we had questions, he always had thoughtful and insightful answers. I can’t recommend him enough! The electric bikes were an absolute blast to ride and surprisingly easy to handle, even for someone like me—a larger guy who spends most of his time working from home. Thank you, Giovanni, for an unforgettable experience. Visiting Fiesole, your hometown, was an absolute joy. Ride safe! 🤗

Cannot recommend Giovanni enough. Easy to get to Fiesole by bus or cab and then do your tour to get outside of the city and enjoy the Tuscan hills! Grazie Mill, Giovanni!

Vous ne pouvez pas manquer cette expérience avec Giovanni pour explorer la campagne toscane ! C'était tout simplement magnifique et tout était parfait :

Giovanni est un homme charmant, attentionné et passionné par sa région, il parle même un peu français 😉

Les vélos électriques fonctionnent à merveille et sont indispensables pour explorer les vallées toscanes ! Le trajet de la balade est exceptionnel et vous aurez même la chance de visiter un petit vignoble 🍇 et de déguster quelques mets sans frais supplémentaires.

C'est sans aucun doute le moment fort de notre séjour à Florence et nous le recommanderons à tous nos amis qui prévoient de visiter cette magnifique ville !

Merci encore Giovanni !

We did this bike ride on our last day in Florence. Great end to the trip. Giovanni was a fantastic guide. We started riding around Fiesole and learning to ride the bikes and then headed out to the countryside. The views are spectacular. The trips ends with a stop at a farmers stand and a picnic outdoors at a farm. I noticed quite a few Italians out with chairs and blankets. They had all come out to watch the sunset over Florence. Sunday is a "holiday" and that seems like a nice way to escape the city and the heat.

The bikes are electric. You can pedal as hard or as little as you want. We climbed quite a bit and I returned with 50% battery. Pretty impressive.

#7 bus from Florence to the last stop. Bus stop is here, right outside a McDonalds. You can buy tickets on the bus or on the app. https://maps.app.goo.gl/2RoRaVLH3LapRGA97 Once you arrive at Cathedral di San Romolo the tour starts here... https://maps.app.goo.gl/Uk9ApwcrTn44SrMY6 Giovanni's setup is unmarked but if you're looking at the front doors of the cathedral he will come out of a door on your right.

This was by far our favorite thing we did in Florence. Giovanni was a great guide and very knowledgeable. He even found us to wait out a hail storm!
A must when you come to Florence

We had a great time doing the Fiesole E-bike tour on Saturday. Giovanni, our guide, was very patient, kind, and knowledgeable. The stop at the farm near the end for some wine, bread, salami, fresh tomatoes, and strawberries was just perfect. The fruits and veggies in Italy just taste better than what we get in the states. Highly recommend this tour.
