This private cycling tour covers the main historic sites in Florence over about three hours. A local licensed guide leads the route through the city center, allowing guests to set their own pace and ask questions. The tour includes bike rental, with optional upgrades to electric bikes for an extra fee, as well as helmets, front pouches, back racks, and headphones for clear audio from the guide. The tour begins at Piazza della Signoria, the medieval political center, then moves to Piazza della Repubblica, the central square. It continues to the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, the city's principal church, where guests spend about 25 minutes. Next is Piazza di San Lorenzo, one of the oldest churches and home to the Central Food Market. The ride then passes Santa Maria Novella square, followed by a ride along Via de' Tornabuoni, known for its luxury shops. The group stops at Ponte Vecchio for 15 minutes to learn about the bridge's history. Piazza Santo Spirito offers insight into local Florentine life and the church where Michelangelo trained. Piazza de' Pitti is next, focusing on the palace built on a hill with a costly history. The tour covers why Ponte Vecchio was spared in World War II, including stories about butchers and a secret corridor. Finally, Piazza di Santa Croce features graves of famous Italians such as Galileo and Michelangelo. The tour ends back at the office to return bikes and access facilities like wifi. Food, drinks, entrance fees, gratuities, and hotel transfers are not included. The route is on city roads, so participants should be comfortable riding in urban traffic and on various surfaces.
