Description

Explore Florence by bike and dive into the heart of the Renaissance!

Your tour begins in the historic center of Florence, where you’ll meet your guide and start a 3-hour ride through the city’s must-see landmarks.

You’ll first ride around the majestic Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, then stop along the Arno River for the perfect photo opportunity with the iconic Ponte Vecchio, one of the most photographed bridges in the world.

Next, you’ll ride beneath the mysterious Vasari Corridor, which links the Palazzo Vecchio to the grand Pitti Palace – once home to the Medici family.

The tour continues to Piazza della Signoria, an open-air museum featuring Renaissance masterpieces, including a replica of Michelangelo’s David.

Finally, you'll reach the vibrant Santo Spirito district, known for its authentic Florentine atmosphere and artisan workshops tucked into its narrow streets.

Throughout the tour, your licensed local guide will share fascinating stories, offer photo tips, and ensure a fun, safe ride through the cobbled streets of Florence.
