4.00Terrain can be difficult for inexperienced riders. Our guide Ricardo was fantastic- resourceful, knowledgeable and engaging. Thank you!
Worth the time - explore a quieter side of the city while seeing history most will miss

5.00Chris, our guide, was fantastic. We learned so much about the history of the aqueducts, Roman baths, the Appian trail and way of life when the aqueducts were first built. The bike tour took you through the streets of Rome, past the defensive walls of the city center, and led us to the quieter, outer area of the city. We explored 2 large parks, saw gorgeous, quintessentially Italian countryside, and even some goats (with bells!), chickens, and turtles. The ride was bumpy at times but the e-bikes and suspension made it a breeze. This was the best way to learn history, see ruins, explore a side of Rome that most do not, and get out of the bustling city. I would highly recommend!!
It was the best tour...
