3.Florence Small Group Electric Bike City Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 324 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $58

Ride an electric bike through Florence with a guide such as Rebecca, Marco, Luigi, or Edoardo, stopping at Medici landmarks, major churches, Ponte Santa Trinita, Pitti Palace, and Piazzale Michelangelo. The two-hour route covers more ground than walking, but expect cobblestones, traffic, pedestrian crowds, and uneven guide audio. Rain turns the ride into a walking tour.

“Great way to get some exercise while learning about Florence. The car traffic was a little "dodgy" at times, but Rebecca did a great job providing instructions and keeping everyone in the group together.”
