Italy E-Bike Tour: Tuscany to Rome

This route took us to places we would not normally have visited on a standard tourist route in Italy and allowed us to meet the locals and see aspects of Italian life outside of the main tourist areas. Overall standard of accommodation was a pleasant surprise and pleased so many had pools. Our guide was really excellent; she was friendly, professional and knowledgeable about the route and places to visit on the way. Didn’t have to worry about the logistics, just cycling and eating!

One of the most enjoyable holidays, probably made more so by the fun loving group! Hotels were extremely good with the scenic swimming pools as an added bonus. Our Tour leader Cristina had just the right combination of safety, when required, and fun. She provided an alternative route for the weaker riders to ensure they had an equally enjoyable experience. It’s a nice touch to be contacted by phone just prior to the beginning of the holiday to ensure all is ok. I have already recommended [the operator] to my friends on numerous occasions!

We had a fantastic holiday in Tuscany riding from Pisa to Rome. We weren’t sure what to expect never having used e-bikes before but they were a godsend up those hills. The rides were well planned out. Our two guides were brilliant – very professional and good company. Couldn’t praise it more highly!

Every single day was a favourite – seriously! Really hard to choose a favourite as they were all so varied and filled with stunning scenery. Tuscany had the best views and the hills always offered up great views once accomplished. Lazio’s wheat fields and flatter landscapes were a nice relief later in the week! I did particularly enjoy day 6 which saw us explore the amphitheater park and cycle through Italian canyons.

There was a great variety from modern and quite fancy, to more traditional yet still very comfortable accommodation. One of the highlights of the trip was rocking up to find out where we’d rest our heads of the evening. By far my favourite was the agriturismo which was like a little haven in the Tuscan countryside, i’ll always remember the pool with incredible view and our meal under the giant fig tree.

Totally converted to [operator] picnics! So many amazing salad options each day, prepared by our guides and presented wonderfully. The cookie and juice stops were always strategically positioned before or after a big climb too – very well thought out!

I’ve got so many amazing memories from this trip that I am going to cherish forever. A little tough at times, but the scenery, food and company were second to none and made those hills much easier to handle. 100% certain the best way to explore Italy is by bike now! Take me back!

A great combination of beautiful landscapes, quiet off road cycling, superb, off the beaten track accommodation and good company! Everything was sorted before we left with reassuring calls from the office at [the operator] .

Accommodation was superb. Each one was unique with very welcoming hosts. The electric bike was beyond expectations, extremely powerful. The support vehicle turned up very promptly when there was any problem. Very impressive.

Attention to detail was provided and is the reason I continue to book with [the operator] !
