Genuinely nice people.
It’s a good starting point to rent a bike and enjoy 1 or 2 hour ride coz less cars here and there’s lovely cafe next to it.

Excellent service. Nous avons loué deux vélos électriques pour une heure afin de nous promener tranquillement sur la via Appia. Le prix (20€ pour les deux vélos) est très abordable et les deux préparateurs sont très sympathiques.

We reserved ebikes ahead of time, and it was easy enough to pick them up. The attendant was helpful and spoke good English. He even set us up with a phone holder on the bike and a Google Maps recommended route so we could self-navigate. The recommended route was beautiful and takes you off the literal Appian Trail road and into surrounding country, past farms with animals and parks and an aqueduct. It was beautiful and we enjoyed it so much, but I would not advise this route for people who aren’t fit and don’t feel comfortable on bikes. It gets into slightly intense mountain biking at points, and at other parts you’re crossing busy roads with no bike lanes or shoulders. Definitely not for children or for the faint of heart.

Très agréable de quitter l'agitation de la ville pour un lieu beau et paisible. Nous avons loué des VTT électriques, à un prix fort raisonnable, en très bon état, avec un personnel très sympathique. Durant 3h, nous avons pu parcourir la voie appienne et le parc des aqueducs. A faire !

Dit was het leukste van heel de Rome-tour! Het was in het begin een beetje wennen, maar later werd het heel leuk! Er was een cafe naast, en een bushalte. De persoon ervan was niet moeilijk ook al was je een kwartiertje te laat.

How should I start? 🌝

After 2 days visiting all the famous places in Rome, I was really tired of all the noise, and crowds, and rush, and cars trying to "kill" me!

So finding this bike shop was a blessing!

To get there from the termini, I took a metro + bus, around 40 min.

The shop is just across the bus stop and had a toilet I could use. There's also a bar next to it, so it's easy to get refreshments.

The attendence was super nice and he spoke in English with me, which helped a lot.

He explained the route and gave me advice about it.

I got the mountain bike (not electric) and it had a basket in the front to store my small backpack.

The price was affordable for me, since I'm travelling on a budget (5 euro first hour + 3 euro extra hour). They accept card and money. And the helmet was included.

I had to leave one document with them.

The path (around 10km) I chose was an historical road full of old tombs, very beautiful and it's not exactly easy to ride, because it's made of stone, but no crazy cars!

During my journey, I bumped with the owner and he's also very friendly, we talked a lot and he recommended to go to the aqueducts.

To/from there I had to cross my path with cars, but it was not that bad and the place itself was nice.

It's sad that Rome doesn't have more bike lanes...

I didn't ask if they had a bike locker and a phone holder, but I missed this one, especially when I tried to memorize the route, but ended up going the 'wrong' way. A good adventure indeed 😂

I had a nice day outside the center of Rome, so if you like to bike and want some adventure, I recommend this shop.

I can leave Rome with such a good memory!

Sorry but I have no photos, I was enjoying the place with my two eyes 😄

If you read until here, you're beautiful 🤣

Have an amazing day!

We had a great experience here. Alejandro was very helpful to us and spoke good English. The bikes were in good condition and very affordable at €5 for the first hour. Thoroughly enjoyed this ride along a fabled road.

It's a very small store/snack bar, bicycle rental place.

This place is nearest the original appian way. When I was there(2021) I had my choice of 4 bikes. I was delighted to see the real appian stone road with The ruts made by 2000 years of traffic. Biking it was another story entirely. I think I made it about a mile and a half when I gave up. (Found a nice cluster of kitties outside of military base). It was still worth it though. 5euro 1st hr, 3euro each hr after. It was a very long walk back to the nearest bus stop. But the snack bar fortified me with a delicious strudel. 3.50 euro after negotiations.

It said 7pm here, but we have been refused at the entrance at 5:45pm,even for 1h bike rental. , saying it's closed We traveled 1h from the city centered for this... The service may be great, when you can actually have it. Really deceived.

Wir haben hier E-Bikes mit Audio Guide für die Rundtour Appia Via Antica (18 km) geliehen.
Die Pod-Cast Firma hatte das technisch noch nicht umgesetzt, aber der Verleiher hat eine kulante Lösung für uns gefunden. Die Fahrräder waren technisch in Ordnung, die Leute am Verleih sehr nett und hilfsbereit und die Streckenführung für Menschen, die schonmal Fahrrad gefahren sind gut nachvollziehbar :)
Meine Empfehlung: Start in Richtung Katakomben (vom Verleih am Café aus gesehen nach rechts), sonst kommt man ggfs. in die Situation gegen die Fahrtrichtung einiger Einbahnstraßen geleitet zu werden. Dann ist schieben angesagt…
Auch wichtig: die notwendige App und die Karten vorher runterladen, wenn man gutes W-Lan hat. Die sind dann auch an anderen Sehenswürdigkeiten in Rom nützlich (teilweise sogar mit Audiounterstützung)
Insgesamt tolles Erlebnis, wunderbare Rundtour an der Via Appia Antica und ich empfehle den Verleih!

Super recomendable. El chico es majisimo, y nos aconsejó muy bien a pesar de no saber italiano. 3 horas de bicicleta eléctrica por 20€. Las bicis están en perfecto estado, son muy estables y vienen genial para la vía romana que a veces es demasiado irregular el asfalto. Funcionan genial! Y es muy recomendable que sea eléctrica a no ser que estén muy bien de forma. El recorrido es precioso, muy recomendable! Gracias!

Top alles top, ist ein schöner Laden mit guten Preisen. Ich empfehle aber mehr als die Route zu fahren da sie ein bisschen klein ist.

The stuff was very polite. The bike are in perfect condition. You could ride for more than 10km in one direction. Authentic Rome view aroud the road, you could actually feel how it was to travel on ancient roads. The price for the bike is 4 euro/hour, and for 15 euro you could ride for a day. The only drawback is difficult access by the public transport.

Das ist der letzte fahrradverleih vor der für pkw verkehr gesperrten via appia antica. Offenbar kann man es sich dann leisten auch noch die ältesten räder zu verleihen. Für die appia antica bzw die wege neben ihr würde ich mtb/trekkingräder mit federung empfehlen, stattdessen bekommt man hier überwiegend alte drahtesel mit superschmalen reifen. War ein wunder dass mein rad die tour überstanden hat, immerhin bringe ich gut 120kg auf die waage bzw den sattel - also sind die rädee zumindest gut gewartet. Der preis war auch ok. Aber wer ein modernes rad will sollte nen anderen verleih wählen. Beim verleih ist ein kleines bistro mit einfachen aber schmackhaften speisen zu relativ kleinem preis.

Bike rental place nearest the old road Appian way-note that the ancient Roman road is difficult for younger, hungry grouchy kids. Parents prepare for stress and a turnaround back to the bike rental place in about 20 minutes of struggle and angst. The bike dude was ok with just charging for 1/2 hour which made it a four star review. The bikes were in bad shape. The place you need to pay had cold beer-drink plenty after returning!!!

Świetna lokalizacja wypożyczalni, bardzo miła obsługa. Jedynie 15 euro, za cały dzień. W zestawie rownież pompka do kół, z której skorzystam dwa razy. Polecam serdecznie! Zasługują na 5 gwiazdek.

Bikes were ok for the via appia, really nice people. Perfect to start the via appia here because the road starts to be forbidden to cars.
