DISCOVERING FLORENCE AND FIESOLE
After a short presentation by our local guide Pietro and general briefing of the tour we set off!
The exact starting point will be chosen to be as close as possible to your hotel. If you are staying outside Florence, no problem!
We have a shuttle available that will pick you up and take you back directly to your accommodation.
WE WILL VISIT THE EXCLUSIVE GARDEN OF VILLA GAMBERAIA
The villa is famous for the unique design of its gardens, originally designed by Zanobi Lapi and his nephews in the first half of the 17th century and preserved to this day with few major changes. According to Edith Wharton, Gamberaia was "probably the most perfect example of the art of producing a great effect on a small scale".
WE WILL HAVE LUNCH IN ONE OF THE BEST RESTAURANTS IN ALL OF FLORENCE
The Tullio restaurant, located in the immediate vicinity of Fiesole, is considered by many Florentines to be the best trattoria in Florence.
It is no coincidence that it is very difficult to book a table. Here you can taste some of the most famous Tuscan dishes such as the Florentine steak. As for wine, the cellar is well stocked, although we advise you to limit yourself to one glass! After all, we have to pedal afterwards. The average cost for lunch ranges from €15 to €25 per person.
AFTER LUNCH IT'S ONLY DESCENT!
After lunch we will continue our E-Bike tour near the hills of Florence. We will pass through roads with little traffic with a breathtaking view of the Tuscan hills.
For groups who wish it will be possible to visit the gardens of Villa Gamberaia. The gardens of the villa are very exclusive and represent the only example of a floating garden in Europe. The cost of the visit is €20 per person.
