About this tour

Piazzale Michelangelo and back. The city, slow, from above.

A short evening loop designed to fall in love with Florence the first day you arrive. We leave at the start of the golden hour, ride along the Arno, climb up to Piazzale Michelangelo and watch the city change colour from above.

Perfect for riders of any level, perfect for a first ride. Helmets, prosecco, the bell of the Duomo at sunset.
