5.00At least a little E-bike experience would be V beneficial. Great fun, will definitely book again. Be ready for Roma traffic though.
Loved this tour!

5.00Loved this activity! My husband and I had the best time on the e bikes. It was a welcome pleasure to get out of the city and into serenity while riding along the Appian Way. Our guide, Silvia was awesome! She made sure everyone was comfortable with their bikes and safe at all times. We never felt uneasy at all, even when we were riding on the streets of the city for a short time. The tour of the Catacombs was very interesting and informative. I would suggest using the bathroom before the tour begins or after the Catacombs tour. The bathroom in the park where you get lunch is what you would expect for a park bathroom. Make sure you have toilet paper with you. If you are doing the tour which includes lunch, the lunch consists of chicken thighs, ribs, sausages, salad, burrata and bread. You also can get an espresso (with or without sambuca) or cappuccino which is served with a very sweet pastry. Overall we had a great time and would recommend this tour.
Fabulous ride on an ancient highway

5.00Wonderful ride over hill and dale with very knowledgeable guide, Sylvia! Although a bit tricky getting around Roman traffic, Sylvia kept everyone together, safe, while having fun and educating along the way.
Worth every penny

5.00This was the best tour we have taken in Rome! We got to see so much of the city outside of the city. Our guide was great. A lot of little stops to see things we would have just passed by without knowing the history of it. The food at the restaurant we stopped at was delicious. We learned so much and had a great time!
Hey Good, fun ride, but be comfortable with rough terrain

4.00This is an excellent, but challenging, bike ride. What makes it challenging is the terrain you need to navigate on these excellent electronic bikes. This was insufficiently made clear on the website. Someone who’s not really comfortable with some rough riding ought not to be trying this. The views are lovely, the stops are as interesting as they can be given the archaeological sites that you pass. The catacomb visit is about 60 minutes, maybe a little less. The most disappointing part was the quality of the lunch, which was sort of tasty but really inadequately done with plastic plates, and… they should’ve done better.
