The e-bikes were great fun and made the 15 miles of cycling easy. The catacombs were incredible and the guide there was also brilliant and clearly really loves her job. Lots of these tours don’t include lunch in the price, but this one does, which makes it even better value. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough.”

This was the favorite activity in Rome for all of us and particularly my teenage son. The cycling is not hard with the e-bikes but is technically a bit challenging over rough roads and paths which really added to the fun. Any comfortable cyclist will be fine. The Catacombs tour was very good with an on-site guide. The aqueducts are stunning to see and cycle around. And if you know any history of the Appian way and the sites along it, the…”

In totaal ruim 500 hoogtemeters gefietst maar met deze-bike kost dat werkelijk geen moeite. Wil je een sportieve activiteit dan is dit zeker de moeite waard om te boeken.”

We hebben ongelooflijk veel terrein bestreken en zoveel buurten, parken, enz. gezien, evenals de bekende toeristische plekken. We stopten bij een paar verborgen juweeltjes en hadden heerlijke pizza, suppli en tiramisu. Alessio was vriendelijk, energiek, grappig en charismatisch en gaf veel informatie. Hij nam ook de tijd om een aantal geweldige foto's en video's van ons te maken. Ik zou…”
