Traveler reviews
E-bike tour of Rome
Andy was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable, friendly and really took his time to make sure we enjoyed our tour. Would highly recommend!
An Adventure on the Appian Way
A bicycle ride along an historic highway, a tad on the rugged side, made smoother thanks to our fantastic guide Massimo!
Riding Appia Antica
We had a great time riding the Appia Antica and learning about the sights along the way with our guide Enrico. Was a great way to get out of the bustle of Rome for a few hours!
Appian Way. Ike your with Massimo
Massimo was pleasant and very knowledgeable chill and patient. What an amazing opportunity to see the Appian Way. Would recommend this tour highly!
Appian Way was fun! But bumpy!
I was fortunate to have Paolo as my guide for a private e-bike tour along the Appian Way. It was an outstanding experience! Paolo was friendly, knowledgeable, and exceptionally safety-conscious—he was constantly alert to the hazards of riding e-bikes and made sure everyone stayed safe. He was incredibly accommodating: any questions for Paolo? No problem. Need a quick break? No problem. Just be aware that while it’s an e-bike tour, it’s still physically demanding—especially on the upper body. That said, if you’re in decent shape, I highly recommend it. When is the last time you rode a bike on a road built in 312 BC? The history along the route is absolutely impressive. I’d do it again in a heartbeat! 💯
