Jump on e-bikes to the Florentine hills

First, we'll take some minutes to take confidence with the engine of the e-bikes; you don't need to be particularly fit even if we'll cover hilly roads; the engine makes the effort for you. In a couple of minutes, we'll leave the city center to reach the countryside towards the south area of Florence. Through a nice bike path, we'll get to the most popular panoramic view over the city of Florence: Piazzale Michelangelo. From there, we can admire from the distance all the architectures of the city. With the use of the electric engine, in no time we'll be in the area of Arcetri, where the scenary is totally different: no tourists,olives groves, small vineyards, typical Tuscan countryside. I'll tell you something about our local products such as the Extra Virgin Olive Oil and the wine. Electric bikes, nature, green colors, red poppies and birds cheeping are the context of this ride. After the ride, we'll get back to the city center to taste a wonderful gelato in one of the best spots in town! If you have kids, please contact me!

Half-day e-bike ride through the Tuscan countryside

By e-bike I'll show you the places I love, where I've spent my whole life. In SMALL GROUP MAX ONLY 4 PEOPLE (upon request private tours with more than four participants), you'll discover the Tuscan countryside and Fiesole, the sky above Florence, the nature so close and yet so far from the city, local life away from crowded places. In the morning, in the afternoon, at sunrise or sunset, sometimes at night, we will ride at least 30km (19mi). You will see where Leonardo da Vinci lived and dreamed about human flight, where Dante fell in love with Beatrice. Breathtaking panoramic views of Florence, the hills and countryside surrounded by fields of olive trees. Depending on the season, we will reach a monastery still inhabited by monks at an altitude of over 800m (2600ft), or Michelangelo's childhood home. We will cross the path of the Via degli dei, the ancient Via Flaminia Minor, the Etruscan road that crossed the Apennines mountains at least 200 years BC. During the trip, we'll get some fragrant bread and fresh seasonal vegetables from local farmers, like I usually do with my family. Then we will have a little food break at Giorgio's farm, where we will eat outdoors on the farmyard, tasting his extra virgin olive oil and his good wine: these are always on my kitchen table at home. It won't be a tourist experience, but a little adventure.

Cinque Terre Sunset Cruise & Swim

We highly suggest you join our group sunset tour. We will meet you at the harbor in Riomaggiore and then embark on our magical sunset tour. During the tour, we will slowly cruise up the Cinque Terre coast, stopping in front of each village to allow you to take photos of the towns from the sea, which is hands-down the best way to capture each village's beauty. Once we reach Monterosso, we will turn around and slowly head back to Riomaggiore. With the sun setting behind us, you will have the perfect view to capture magnificent photos. During the tour, you can sip on bubbles and enjoy homemade focaccia from the local baker, which is made fresh daily and is a must-try food while in the Cinque Terre. During the tour, you can also jump into the sea for a sunset dip. Take a deep breath and enjoy the paradise that surrounds you. We aim to make your night, and maybe even your holiday in the Cinque Terre, a lifelong memory, and show you 'La dolce vita.' The tour lasts for around 2.5 hours.

I will provide you with 24-speed touring bikes. E-bikes might be available if you ask in advance (limited number!) - please ask for them asap! We will cycle along ancient roads to reach a countryside venue that produces extra virgin olive oil, surrounded by pristine nature. Here we will learn how extra virgin olive oil is produced in Tuscany. Then, we will relax in the gardens to taste local wine and handmade olive oil, paired with a Tuscan appetizer of local products.

In just half a day, this route is a perfect combination of cycling through Tuscany, seeing Florence from the hilltops, and tasting local produce while experiencing the beauty of the Tuscan countryside. There are some hills to climb (4) on tour (11km/8 miles distance and 140m elevation gain), so get ready for a little workout! (I call it a moderate level, easy if you are used to biking). As an option and on request, we can extend the tour to 7 hours, including lunch at a Chianti farm with wine and olive oil tasting and a visit to the property.
