Hidden Florence

Forget the boring explanation of churches and monuments: Florence is an open-air museum but also a city full of tradition and anecdotes. My tour will be a journey through time to discover the identity of the city through its illustrious protagonists. You'll start in Piazza della Repubblica, where the Romans founded Florence over 2000 years ago. In Piazza del Duomo you'll admire with me the imposing facade of the Cathedral, in which the bloodiest murder that involved the Medici family took place: the Pazzi conspiracy. In the nearby 'medieval district' I'll tell you the story of Dante Alighieri, the poet who wrote the Divine Comedy. Michelangelo, Donatello and Cellini are other great personalities that will accompany us to the discovery of Piazza della Signoria. Piazza degli Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio will be other important stages of your itinerary. If you want to discover the artistic treasures of my city not forgetting anecdotes, intrigues, hidden secrets and illustrious murders that's the experience you're looking for! -Please note: MINIMUM 2 PARTICIPANTS. If you are alone, check that there are other bookings before yours. -If you prefer to book the Experience ON ANOTHER TIME/DAY, please DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT ME: I will meet your needs! -My Experience is available in English, French and Italian: the first to book will choose the language (monolingual)

Jump on e-bikes to the Florentine hills

First, we'll take some minutes to take confidence with the engine of the e-bikes; you don't need to be particularly fit even if we'll cover hilly roads; the engine makes the effort for you. In a couple of minutes, we'll leave the city center to reach the countryside towards the south area of Florence. Through a nice bike path, we'll get to the most popular panoramic view over the city of Florence: Piazzale Michelangelo. From there, we can admire from the distance all the architectures of the city. With the use of the electric engine, in no time we'll be in the area of Arcetri, where the scenary is totally different: no tourists,olives groves, small vineyards, typical Tuscan countryside. I'll tell you something about our local products such as the Extra Virgin Olive Oil and the wine. Electric bikes, nature, green colors, red poppies and birds cheeping are the context of this ride. After the ride, we'll get back to the city center to taste a wonderful gelato in one of the best spots in town! If you have kids, please contact me!

Half-day e-bike ride through the Tuscan countryside

By e-bike I'll show you the places I love, where I've spent my whole life. In SMALL GROUP MAX ONLY 4 PEOPLE (upon request private tours with more than four participants), you'll discover the Tuscan countryside and Fiesole, the sky above Florence, the nature so close and yet so far from the city, local life away from crowded places. In the morning, in the afternoon, at sunrise or sunset, sometimes at night, we will ride at least 30km (19mi). You will see where Leonardo da Vinci lived and dreamed about human flight, where Dante fell in love with Beatrice. Breathtaking panoramic views of Florence, the hills and countryside surrounded by fields of olive trees. Depending on the season, we will reach a monastery still inhabited by monks at an altitude of over 800m (2600ft), or Michelangelo's childhood home. We will cross the path of the Via degli dei, the ancient Via Flaminia Minor, the Etruscan road that crossed the Apennines mountains at least 200 years BC. During the trip, we'll get some fragrant bread and fresh seasonal vegetables from local farmers, like I usually do with my family. Then we will have a little food break at Giorgio's farm, where we will eat outdoors on the farmyard, tasting his extra virgin olive oil and his good wine: these are always on my kitchen table at home. It won't be a tourist experience, but a little adventure.
