Overview

Cycle into the Tuscan countryside and enjoy a wine (one glass) and olive oil tasting on our best time-tested, scenic 4-hour small group bike tour from Florence with a professional and knowledgeable guide. Leave Florence by bike and coast through stunning landscapes, past gorgeous aristocratic villas, leafy olive groves, and rolling vineyards. Stop at a marvelous countryside venue that is also a producer of artisanal extra virgin olive oil, paired with fresh Tuscan bread, tasty Tuscan cold cuts, and a glass of local Chianti Classico wine, before taking in the more beautiful scenery on the way back to Florence. All products are self-produced or locally sourced. This is the best way to experience green Tuscany gorgeous-ness, right out of the city, and to enjoy a balance of cycling, admiring stunning scenery, and enjoying the gastronomic specialties of the area.
