Florence Bike Tour with Tuscan Food Tasting

Cycle and snack your way around Florence on a 3-hour food tour by bike, led by a friendly local guide! The fun morning sightseeing tour showcases three of the locals’ favorite eateries as well as a selection of the A-list attractions that the city is famous for including the Ponte Vecchio, Florence Duomo and more. While learning about the sights and the local Tuscan cuisine, chow down on popular snacks such as 'schiacciata all’olio,' a sinfully salty flat bread made with lashings of olive oil.

Numbers are limited to 10 people on this small-group tour, ensuring personalized attention from a guide.

Meet your guide near Piazza della Signoria in central Florence and, after a quick safety briefing, put on your helmet and hop on your bike. Then, pedal away from the start point and through the atmospheric streets of Florence, stopping at three of Florence’s most happening cafes to try out some favorite dishes of the locals. In between stops, your guide will stop to share tales and trivia about Florence iconic landmarks as well as its cuisine, and you’ll have plenty of chances to take photos and chat with other people in your group.

The eateries visited on of your tour will vary, but favorite options include a pastry shop in the Beccaria neighborhood to try a seductively sweet Italian pastry, and a delicatessen in San Niccolo’ to try the salty schiacciata all’olio bread. Drinks can be purchased at your own expense.

In between eating and chatting about food, admire the sights of Florence as you pedal your way around town. Besides the neighborhoods of San Niccolo’ and Beccaria, your tour also covers the most exciting attractions around the city center.

Cycle past Florence Duomo with its distinctive Brunelleschi-designed cupola, and pose for photos against the backdrop of the elegant Ponte Vecchio, the historical bridge that spans that River Arno. Work your way around the crowds outside the Uffizi Gallery, and admire the statuesque architecture of Santa Croce before pedaling through Piazza della Signoria back to the start point where your tour finishes.
