This professionally guided and fully supported bike ride in the Tuscan countryside begins with a certified and authorized shuttle transportation out of the busy city centre. In just 15 minutes you’ll be in the countryside, at the starting point of your riding loop. Riding 24-speed bicycles, we will lead you along shaded roadways hemmed in ancient olive groves and vineyards. Tuscan hilltops and hillside villa estates are all part of the breathtaking panoramic views you will see as you ride your bike through the heart of Tuscany. Lunch is a typical Tuscan meal at a 17th Century privately owned Villa where we will also tour the vineyards and wine cellar. You will learn the techniques of production, ageing, storing and bottling the wines and olive oil, and tasting is encouraged! After lunch it's back on the bike for the ride home. Several stops for photo opportunities will be made along the way, and possibly a stop for "gelato", time permitting. A final shuttle will get you back to the centre of Florence no later than 5 pm.
